Going by the club's VFL | Match simulation player report - "In three 30-minute terms of VFL football under the baking sun, Jai Culley was a standout performer for the Demons as they fell one point shy of the home side after a slow start," Culley is looking like the favourite, especially in view of the fact that he was considered to be close in the last SSP deliberations before we took Jack Henderson.

Also nothing about whether the local snake population was out and about today.

Does anyone know what ails Caleb Windsor?

There's an article in the Herald Sun about Samoan born Richmond (and former Casey Demons) player Mykelti Lefau going back to Samoa to visit his roots and promote the game. If Melbourne were smart, it would immediately start pushing for players of Samoan heritage to be included in NGA qualification rules in the same way as players from other countries that do meet the current qualifications. There's no logical reason this shouldn't happen and it's just a pity that for some reason Melbourne apparently is never proactive in such things.

Vietnam, Laos, Taiwan, Malaysia, Australia ?

Agree, it was a very positive article but why do they highlight it with an video interview with Eric Gulden?

But there are no times specified for Casey Fields, presumably because those are closed sessions. Based on Tracc’s comments yesterday, there’s training on today so it’s more than likely at Casey.

Something tells me that the concept of rolling women is not going to go down well with some of the intellegensia at Demonland.

SInnema comes from Narre North Foxes FC and averaged 13.9 disposals in 2024 from 17 appearances with the Dandenong Stingrays. He also kicked five goals in seven games of senior football for Devon Meadows in the Mornington Peninsula Football Netball League.

When did he say this? I heard someone say that he gave his height in feet and inches and someone miscalculated the conversion. He's actually hit 200cm.

Perfect - it means we're going to get a fantastic run with the media from now on.

I hope he’s our man.

Possibly where he belongs.

Can't wait till next week when Tracc comes out with a large tub of nonna's pasta to feed the boys at the end of training.
