Training 2023 Pre Season

Are you sure that you are not getting confused with that horriblemuck raker from the Age, Caroline Wilson

Are you sure that you are not getting mixed up with the horrible crap reporting on this issue by that muck raking Caroline Wilson over at the age. She was the one I remember sticking the boot into the saints

The Herald Sun is a load of rubbish, like most Australian papers- used be a good read years back

Caro is the only sports reporter I've formally complaint about. 7 sh1t articles trashing the Saints in 7 days

Friday there’s going to be a few of us there no doubt..I’ll put up a review of the intra club game.

Any word on whether there will be a live stream? I think that might have happened in the past?

 

[MOLTEN GANGLANDS]

You know what the best stat is on all footballers of the memory is good enough. The eye. I think gresh is a very good player but his kicking can be hurried and sometimes ordinary. I could find a stat that said I look like Ryan gosling.

I agree with the first part of the post

 

[tomjoad]

Fam, just because it hasn't been relevant since the 2018 preseason doesn't mean we stop talking about it. I for one believe Lewis Peirce will come over the top of both this year.

That's a party that I definitely DO NOT WANT TO BE AT.

 

[phantom13]

Absolutely, but it would appear some have taken umbrage at a fans views that doesn't align with their own based on claiming some sought of exclusivity over watching some training which is a little wierd. I'll save myself for when the real stuff starts at R1.

With all due respect (and you’re not obligated to listen to me or anyone else) but you tend to be pretty antagonistic when you respond to the training posts or even discussions about a game style we’ve trained a bit.

It’s your right to do what you like but there’s probably a reason most dismiss your posts, cause you tend to be pretty dismissive yourself.

I wonder if the club will stream it?.

 

[DougalHoward]

It's going to be 38 on Friday

 

[sammm]

Noone certainly wasn’t there.

You know plugger66 I did think of that when I wrote the statement

 

[phantom13]

It's going to be 38 on Friday

And on the back of two plus 30 days too. Have to be half a chance to postpone it you’d think.

Theres no mention of proper match sim ..its just an open training session. They might do a bit of sim among other things but I doubt its gonna be streamed

Nah says on website match sim 9:30-12.

No idea about stream so doubt it

 

[Nutsngum]

I attend nearly every single Melbourne game and watch the replay on TV.
If my opinion doesn't match yours that doesn't mean mine is wrong. Trying to belittle me for having a different view on it is pretty embarrassing.

Calling you out on shallow posting that fails to provide even a speck of evidence isn't embarrassing for me in the slightest. Its a detriment to the forum as a whole that people like you continue to belittle players through those tactics and you should be called out on it more often.

I for one am looking forward to Cairnsman's training update after tomorrows open session.

 

[AirWinmar]

Thanks, R1 to R23 is when I'll use my own eye test but good to be getting your fascinating insights into how they are training.

Well it is the Pre Season thread, which is meant to be about pre season.

 

[CursingFijian]

2023 pre-season and the Hickey v Longer debate is still going

We are committed.

What evidence are you giving me on the contrary? Exactly none. And you know this so you run with the 'people like me' rubbish.
I have nothing against Jones. I just don't rate him as highly as you.. Obviously well below. I don't think he is good enough for the reasons I stated originally.
It's not belittling him. We all judge players on there abilities as that is what it's all about. I hope he can improve on his deficiencies as a footballer to help us achieve success because personally it doesn't worry me which players do as long as we get there. But I just don't see it.

This mystical space on a modern AFL field you speak of, how does one find it? Are good foot skills required? The more I listen to our fans the more I think we have found some magical trick that no other club possesses. Yet the problem Ratts had still exists for Ross, and that is poor foot skills, so it's one thing to suggest vast areas of space exist on an AFL field in the modern two way running game, it's another to be able to drop the ball accurately into that space, ESPECIALLY at this new chaotic speed and under pressure, especially as fatigue sets in. The reality is most clubs use long bomb so I'm expecting we will still NEED to bomb the ball into F50.

There were segments about Melbourne on all the shows for years about how bad they were by foot and then all of a sudden they won a flag. Skills (particularly come finals time) just aren’t as important as we all thought they were.

I’ve said it for years. You can’t really improve skills once players get to a club. You put systems in place to enhance the skills. Maybe you can fix set shots for goals but in the play on of a game you have very little hope so I’m glad Lyon is wasting players training times on things that just won’t change.

did you miss a word plugger66 as otherwise it doesn't make sense to me

Tim Watson dropped that Lyon told him Phillipou more than a chance for R1.

The earlier this kid plays the better. Seriously, even if he starts as a forward he can provide great link up.

i think i heard that Ross Lyon was going to be on SEN or was it they were going to talk about him?

They said the interview will be on 7 news tonight I think

he’s going to have an interview with the whisp air on channel 7

But he did discuss a little about what Lyon said, which was that he likened him to Petrafca in his attitude and he turned out alright and that he’s more than a good chance to play round one
