I tried to get my son into Coulda's training methods.....wasn't a great success but I think it has merit.

Wow - he's really lost that little 'podge' around the guts.
Can't wait to see how he goes this year

I went down for my first look at Cockburn this morning. Few things that stood out. In the close handballing drills Crowden was great- really creative, Lachie Neale esque. I agree with other posters that Logue looks in great shape and more comfortable out there. One play where he attacked a half volley, picked it up on the run and then drilled a low pass was gd to see. Im the match sims it was hard to go past Fyfe. He seemed to get the ball in congestion at almost every stoppage-i think he was matched up on Cerra for a little while. Sandi looks in brilliant shape. Unfortunately I did notice Banfield miss a fair few kicks as well as Danyle.....
Tabs and Alex came out at the end just doing kick to kick. Tabs- massive. Mundy, Kersten, Sheridan and a few others just running laps.
Hung around for Fyfes presser. He got a little annoyed at the amount of Harley questions but spoke well. Big Sean-2week setback.

I was at training, but missed the first hour or so. Sean Darcy didnt look too bad at all for mine. Only a minor injury Id say.. Still running and doing some kicking as well.
Paddy Sweeney is full of shit. When I was there Neale was joining in everything. He dominated some 3/4 length match sim ground drills. Brayshaw also looked terrific winning a heap of the ball in some extended match sim play. He also did a couple of terrific run down tackles. One tackle drew applause from the entire squad. Cerra also looked terrific in some contested ball work, as did North.
Ethan Hughes rejoined for part of the main training stuff while continuing to run a heap of laps. Looked insanely quick. Blakely missed quite a few kicks today and both Sutcliffe and D.Pearce kicked over the head of leading targets way too often. Logue's long kicking is great, but his short kicking still needs a bit of work.
Alex Pearce isnt joining in everything still and seems to be doining a ton of gym work. Tabs and Nyhuis are still in recovery, but kicking the footy and looking close to a return. While Kersten, Johno, Dixon and Switkowski continue to build fitness running laps.
Fyfe's touch is back to his best. Again he is spending a lot of time as the deepest forward player in drills, but also dominating clearnces.
They are still spending a lot of time practicing Sandy hitting the ball to roving players in a marking contest. Not sure what that means for the gameplan.
Ross spent a lot of time directing Luke Ryan giving advice to him when to run of his man in match sim play.
Brady Grey continues to make every post a winner and put everything into every drill he competes in. Did some great kicking today as well.
Not sure there is much more to report, but there was a full media contingent present when I left so there should be something in the news tonight about the Freo preseason.

Thanks for the report.
I really hope this doesn't turn into one of those 8 week 2 week setbacks. Kid is ready to stamp his name on the AFL, injuries better not get in his way.
You are my hero.

Missed any reports on it but the AFL website says the Freo boys have already had their 3km time trial, where Billy won and set a PB. Impressive. Fyfe finished fifth; he's unassumingly quick over 2-3km.
That's because the journalist was looking at the 2017 results

Honestly the standard of AFL journalism is so bad you can't make this stuff up

I did notice the similarities but the 2017 one was done on a 41 degree day and Brad didn't set a personal best.
Also it was mentioned a couple times that our jan time trial happened on the 6th despite our official return from break being the 8th.
Still seems likely that they got the wrong source, Schmook is a bit of a numpty.
