TRAINING REPORT FRIDAY 10/2/2023 Disclaimer.. The published content refers to the latest incantation of the Addams family franchise WEDNESDAY available on Netflix ( A cracker of a show) It contains fictional characters who may or may not be living ( Nor Dead or Undead) They're creepy and they're kooky, Mysterious and spooky, They're altogether ooky, The Addams Family. Their house is a museum When people come to see 'em They really are a scream The Addams Family. [snap twice] (Neat) [snap twice] (Sweet) [snap twice] (Petite) So get a witch's shawl on A broomstick you can crawl on We're gonna pay a call on The Addams Family. … Good afternoon Demonlanders welcome to another installment of Demonland’s training reports! Beautiful Day in sunny Downtown Casey Fields home to rattle snakes, Black Mamba's, Daleks, Yeti's, a Million biting Crawling insects, and the worst of the lot - Ex Mothers in Law!!! First a very strange sign seen to day about a hidden warning which I have not seen here ever! Any way on with the report (All of a Sudden, A Hand wraps around my face, it is Clamy, Cold and Wet complete with a rancid smell) I'm in a Panic till I hear THING LEAVE PICKET FENCE ALONE , YOU KNOW HE HATES SURPRISES. P.F ( Expleteive Deleted) Wednesday?? Thing what the Hell?? W (Hello God father P.F it is tragic to see you again, you look pretty good considering! P.F Wednesday Addams (Old family greeting ensues which is the reverse Indian Death Lock ( Also being performed currently by The Indian Cricket Team on the hapless Aussies) What are you doing here Girl you look as Ghastly, Morbid and Rigoured than ever!! W Thanks for the Complement Fence! P.F Thing how are you you look more gruesome than ever as well! Thing ( Makes O.K Sign) W Well Father and Mother (Gomez and Morticia Got a email from Grandma Frump that a 6th Cousin was drafted bu the Demons Football team his name is Jed Adams number 26 and they asked me to go and check it out! P.F Well Wednesday you have come to the right place they train right here and I'm about to do a training report why dont you come and watch?? W No thanks Fence Thing and I would rather look for some Black Widow spiders, Snakes and other creatures for Grandma to stew. How long will you be here? P.F About 2 Hours ! W 2 Hours well ok but we start filming for the second netflix series in an hour and so I have to get my makeup on! P.F Looks like you already have got it on, Pale Flesh, Sunken Eyes, Evil Black mascara and Lipstick! W Again P.F Your complements almost make me blush, if I had any blood in my veins. P.F OK Wednesday, Thing go enjoy yourselves, see you soon! Now where was I??? Oh yes Training report Arrived at 10.00 Just in time to see start of 4 Quarter Match Simulations. INJURIES REHAB AND NO SHOWS No show Didnt see Lachy Hunter at all out there also Didn't see Melky and Salem or Kozzy … REHAB GROUP Andy Moniz Wakefield, Joel Smith ( Although he doesn't look far off) and Will Verall (Jake Lever, and Hibbo and Clarry ALL JOINED IN MATCH SIM but Jake and Hibbo were on Bikes after about 3 Quarters PLAYER WATCH AND HIGHLIGHTS 1 BEN BROWN He is in career best form at the moment and he marked strongly in contests and on the lead. Must have kicked 5 or so goals for the blues and was opposed to either HARRISON PETTY and on occasions STEVEN MAY. look set for a bumper season and has all but cemented a place in the 1st Round. 2 CLAYTON OLIVER Showed NO signs of his thumb injury, was creative, brilliant and at his destructive best opening up play exhilarating runs and brillant ball use .Just Sublime 3 JACOB VAN ROOYEN Nearly I say Nearly has arrived. Playing in the White team looks like he belongs and was very strong in the air and a dead eye kick for goal, Played very well and I cannot see how he misses out. Having said that TOM MC DONALD was a perfect foil for BEN BROWN and he too looked menacing and dangerous with his up and down the ground gut running. 4 DEAKYN SMITH, was brilliant off half back, he had a few opponents but the way he glides over the turf, reads the ball incredibly well and provides great run and carry. I beleive he would be looking very good for an early season call up. 5 TRAC was Tracc and he and JACK VINEY were indefatigable and as robust as a Jar of Bovril with one teaspoon of hot water added. Just cannot be stopped. 6 JAMES HARMES and ANB were as Busy as a one legged man in a Bum Kicking competition. They add more than icing on the cake they are the cake and very rich ones indeed and part of a potent revolving mid and half forward mix. 7 MAX GAWN VS BRODIE GRUNDY This was facinating to say the least Both played a Ruck Roving around the ground role when they weren't rucking with a Licence to roam far and wide ( Well thats how it looked to me) Max probably shaded Brodie in the ruck and around the ground , BUT Grundy did some nice things that brought many into the play. These guys will be weapons! If they play the same role as today Clubs will almost have to sacrifice a running tall Cyberman type to keep up with them as both have amazing fitness! 8 JAKE BOWEY Just mops up time and time again. Disposal never falters and seems a lock for round 1 9 ED LANGDON just Runs and Runs and sets up play with ability to be in the right position perrenially 10 MOOSE MUNRO yep thats right, the Moose played in the white team and picked up numerous good possesions and kicked a great goal, Think he was just making up numbers but gee would not be the worst idea if a spot opened up HIGHLIGHTS REEL 1 Ben Brown marked 60 out, looked to have a shot, but ran around the man on the mark and bullet passed it to Ed Langdon for a Goal 2 James Harmes 1, 2,3, 4 bounces around wing /pocket no options hemmed in and drilled a goal from the acutest of angles 30 out 3 Matt Jefferson Quiet for the day but late in game took a strong contested mark 50 out on an angle and Kicked Truly OTHER OBSERVATIONS If Burgoyne is no 33 Didnt notice him a lot in Match Sim.Bailey Laurie some Cameos, Luke Dunstan Ditto, Kade Chandler same. Thats about it ah here is Wednesday and Thing with what looks like plenty of slitheras and assorted other nasties to keep Grandma Happy. W One other thing Fence, Uncle Fester wants to know if you want more of that Home Brewed Scotch that tastes to me like Embalming Fluid.? P.F Yeah tell him to put me down for another Dozen. W Yes the same stuff is like paint varnish. P.F Yes Wednesday my young Ghoul, but remember behind every great varnish is a wonderful FINISH!!!! particularly if applied liberally to a FENCE! Cheers P.F

Bennell talking to a VFL Club about a return
Cost the club 50 Grand for his stupidity! I stand by my comments. No one would dare draft him! totally damaged goods. Can play and have fun at Port Melb , but to think he would be a chance to be again Drafted?? No way known!

TRAINING: Tuesday 7th February 2023
But ifIF he requires surgery again (his 3rd) what will that cost?? 3,4,5 games?? Nup if surgery needed do it now, because he can still keep running , hence keep his fitness levels up!
-
TRAINING: Tuesday 7th February 2023
If thats the case that would be 3 surgeries to get it right. The fact is it must still be mighty sore and will affect his ball winning and dish offs. Why wait when its seamingly not improving? Unless the plan is total isolation from ball handling, however he I s doing some drills and running! CONCERNING!😬

Training Ground?
I'm not talking about the Commute!!!! I'm talking about getting into the venue, Its like a Maze!!

Training Ground?
Cripes Caulfield Racecourse??? HOW THE HELL AM I GOING TO GET IN THERE FOR TRAINING REPORTS?? I might have to become Bear Grylls, learn how to cross treacherous water ways, navigate like an Olympic Orienteerer, Learn how to jump out of a plane, and negotiating loads of Horse Sheeit. NUP A few other suggestions Redevelop Murphy oval in Pt Melbourne or Fitzroys old pad or look at the land adjacent Flagstaff station

Pre-season Intensity
Not a bad suggestion Dazzle at all. Now something else of interest. Spoke to a bloke ( Outside the Fence at Casey last training session) and he was checking out this venue and he said his son is playing at Casey this year, but didn't provide his name. He is ( was) a Bulldogs supporter and has been to training this year and he stated very emphatically that DEES TRAINING INTENSITY AND FITNESS WAS THAT FAR AHEAD OF DISHLICKERS IT WASN'T FUNNY!. Interesting !!!!🤩

TRAINING: Wednesday 1st February 2023
LOL Pretty hard to get a Closed session with cyclone fencing all around and plenty of great vantage pionts outside the ground. Not the greatest place in the world though Reminds me of classic Deep Purple song Pictures of Home " Somebody's shouting Up at a mountain Only my own words return Nobody's out there It's a deception When will I ever learn? I'm alone here With emptiness eagles and snow Unfriendliness chilling my body And whispering pictures of home Wondering blindly How can they find me Maybe they don't even know My body is shaking Anticipating The call of the black footed crow... I'm alone here With emptiness vipers and snow Unfriendliness chilling my body And taunting with pictures of home Here in this prison Of my own making Year after day I have grown Into a hero But there's no worship Where have they hidden my throne? I'm alone here With emptiness eagles and snow Unfriendliness chilling my body And screaming out pictures of home

TRAINING: Wednesday 1st February 2023
Hello Demonlanders, thinking like you all, I imagined that training would be at Gosh's today and at 10.25 logged onto Demonland ready to read your reports! After the first few posts and reading no training and having the morning free thought..... Sod it I'll just dash down there and do a Mini Report as from Berwick its not that far away. Hope thats O'K So no T.V Show intros and setting scenes for this one so I'll just get straight down into it. REHAB CLARRY, MAX, FARRIS WHITE, MELKY, MATT JEFFERSON, JAKEY L, JOEL SMITH AND 1 OTHER I COULDNT PLACE. Glad to see the Club being ultra cautious with Clarrie's thumb BUT the fact he is still troubled with it is worrying ( God I hate Selwood) Got there at 10.50 to see Full match Simulation Game between the Blues and the Whites. Quite clearly the Blues were the A Team and the Whites were the possibles. Some interesting faces in the white Team headed by JvR and on todays form I couldn't pick him for a place in the ones just yet. JAMES JORDON also in White team as was MICHAEL HIBBERD and JOSH SCHACHE ATTACKY . Saw about an Hour and 15 of solid match sims. A few takes. BEN BROWN was in SCINTILLATING form. he must have kicked 5 or 6 goals gave about 3 away. Took strong marks in pack and on the lead. Completely overshadowed ADAM TOMLINSON who although tried was just outmanoevered. HE IS A LOCK FOR ROUND 1 IMV. BRODIE GRUNDY was all over it like a flock of angry seaguls fighting over a legless prawn. His ruckwork was great and his run and carry and work below his knees was flawless. BAYLEY FRITSCH was also in scarry good form kicking some goals and cleverly placing himself in irresistable and dangerous positions.LACHY HUNTER,?? He is going to be a weapon and a half with his Run and carry up and down the wing and Flawless disposal. JAMES HARMES, JV, and KOSSY were just phenomenal in the midfield and just racked up disposals at will.CHARLIE SPARGO complemented the run and carry of the mids and was involved in several chains which resulted in Goals. T.MAC was a little quiet by his standards but still imposes and with his hi end run and leads created many opportunities.JAKE BOWEY playing in the Blue team was impassable across half back and his disposals were alway creative and on the money smart. Looks to have maybe beaten Hibbo for that HBF spot perhaps. The defense of MAY, HARRISON (THE HEARTBREAKER) PETTY were frugal and meaner and madder than a mosquito in a manikin factory.KADE CHANDLER also played for the Blue team and he was busier than a one armed man trying to hang a picture! Kicked some opportunistic goals and was really involved. Thats about all I have and I'll be back at Casey next week with another Blockbuster training and T.V Show dialogue. I hope this mini report makes up somewhat for all you Landers that went to Gosch's which would also have infuriated me! Cheers P.F

Wandered around aimlessly till saw a gate open then took my chance and snuck in. Then as I was getting ready to leave a council worker was going to lock the gate meaning I would have been locked in and preyed on by Vipers through the night. Just managed escape route via same council employee🤩
