  1. The session at Casey on the 14th of February is an open session and is also a Family Day of sorts, despite being on a weekday when kids have gone back to school 🤷‍♀️
  2. Anyways my track-watching buddy just sent me this (rushed) report from this morning’s session at Casey. Some of it is hard to understand, apologies in advance, but also thanks to my awesome gal-pal for taking notes. Judd running, but fast. Max in green cap and one other Kozzies back! Training normally 31 32 9 40 ? 22 14 16 23 22 11 33 1 2 2613 36 38 41 33 39 7 5 25 35 3 15 24 17 20 45 21 28 39 9 29 26 8 14 (9 Harry Sharp) Spargs running around oval with trainer Great drill coming out of backline kicking ball into the forward line deep over players head so the must look backwards to mark ball 33 sprinting on other side of the ground 10.30 split into 2 teams greys and blues and 5 rehabs Max Trac 20 (Kolt wearing 20)33 8 21. (rehab one on one ball skills then laps) 37 27 doing laps during match sim Disco in sim - no number Need to get Roy George on our list! But seriously need Roy on our list- he was great today!
  3. They seem loath to have anyone watching nowadays. The view from the fence is cr@pp and many of the drills are done on the opposite side of the ground which makes it hard to see who’s who, even when they’re wearing their own numbers.
  4. Thank you so much to all who bought snags in bread and/or drinks at our sausage sizzles, or who just donated. We TRULY appreciate it. Dees supporters are SO generous as well as being awesome people coz… Dees supporters. ❤️💙 Every $ goes to the Demon Army so this year look out for a lot of new props in the cheer squad. (I’ve been nagging for ages for a giant Melky head. Hopefully this is the year!!!) 🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
  5. And run the risk of having to tell folks we’ve sold out? That’s a big bunch of hell no. It’s bad enough when we run out of onions. 😭
  6. All good, hardtack. Changes/additions etc would be rare and if they had to be made I can just quote the OP and make the changes.
  7. I would’ve heard it but never noticed. Now that you’ve said it I will undoubtedly notice and then never stop noticing 🤣 Handheld banner ideas abound!!!
  8. This is my reason for using nicknames; it’s a term of endearment. It would feel weird to call them by their real names. I don’t think I’ve ever called my own sons by their real names. I can’t even remember their real names 😂
  9. The poor bastard groans when he knows we’ve got a sausage sizzle coming up, but the groaning was next level because two sausage sizzles in three days = bigger than usual sausage overload. 😂
  10. I’ve just started a new thread dedicated to players’ current nicknames. Some have more than one so I listed the one I hear them use the most. Of course there’s sometimes a nickname we use on here that nobody calls the player eg. Andy Moniz-Wakefield is referred to as AMW on here but gets called Andy by his teammates.
  11. Ghostwriter posted a post in a topic in Melbourne Demons

  12. I’ll post a list 👍🏽 But I’m surprised you’ve only heard the nickname Chin on here. Everyone at the club calls him Chin. I’ve not heard a player or coach or trainer call him anything else. Even admin staff call him Chin. We have a massive Chin fan in the cheer squad who holds up a handheld banner that says “Sweet Chin Music” and no one has ever questioned him on it. 🤗
  13. He says so himself. He says it’s the fittest and strongest he’s ever felt and he attributes his current mentally great headspace to being a dad. Baby Millie is the perfect addition to his life. Geez he adores that little girl. You get him started on the subject and he doesn’t stop. 🥹
  14. That must’ve been when I was on my one and only break 😁 But seriously, what a terrible way to describe the 13yo girl who filled in for me. Shame on you!
  15. He does, but I was thinking WA because that’s where his Nan is. Of course, it could be any family member.
  16. He’s attending to a family issue interstate (idk which state but I’m guessing WA). The Club is fully behind him.
  17. No, not high. 🤪 Unless you mean high on life in which case yes, Clarrie’s floating on a cloud of confidence and positivity 🤗
  18. Fully agree, WJ. Not just physically, but mentally as well. He’ll happily tell you this but you don’t need him to, it’s so obvious. Wears his big soft heart on his sleeve does our Claz
  19. The Demon Army thanks you sincerely xxx A vey generous person indeed.
  20. Nah, I asked them if the jumpers were for Harvey and they said who else would they be for (slightly smartarse-ish but whatevs) and I said Josh Schache and they laughed (significantly smartarse-ish).
  21. Anyways the training observations are all well and good but I’ve got the most interesting news… I sold Mr Petracca Senior a snag in bread for his granddaughter Bella (Tracc’s niece) and boy, is he a lovely person! This is little Bella… I also sold three sausages to Stacey Melksham for her kids. Little Teddy is still grappling with the notion that someone other than Melks or one of his kids can wear a guernsey with #18 on the back. Big sister Frankie was quick to let me know that she understands this, there was even a slight eye-roll towards her brother #annoyingLilBro And how good is this… Harvey fans already out and about and he’s yet to play.
  22. … and besides buying two sausages, you made a donation to the DA, for which we are very grateful. 💖
