Training 2024 training updates.

[sr36]

One big problem with Cox is if he doesn't get some sort of a run up, he is too easily pushed around. Almost as if he was never able to get any strength into his core. His positioning when standing under a high ball is also very poor. I really need a life because I spent 2 hours watching him in slow mo and freeze frame. It might just be that he didn't start footy from a young age and just isn't used to using his body effectively

He reads it well enough in the air. I think it's just strength. He's been a full time footballer for a decade now - not having learnt from a young age shouldn't be relevant anymore.

Goals are an important part of Cox's contribution to the side; probably the most critical and what gave the side an advantage. If they're down I'd argue that his other stats are just numbers.

I'm a fan of the big man but his 2024 campaign has been underwhelming so far.

Would like to see him get a bit angry.

He does but he seems to jump a bit early and gets pushed under it. You hit the nail on the head, he's just not strong enough. We really need him to find some form up forward. His tap work is great

They’re not just down, it’s zero.
If he can take a few contested marks and kick a goal against Port, we might just win.

I think we should give Kreuger the Steve Austin treatment - 6 million dollars isn't as much as it used to be.

Yeah, good old Freddy. I still think he should take his chances as a crash test dummy. It would be much less dangerous to his health than footy

He went for a walk in the park last night.

I only know that as I found his arm under a park bench - it'd fallen off.

When he does he gives away free kicks, just needs to listen to Ruck Coach and practice harder ..

 

[Bianconeri]

Once again, what’s the benefit of moving to LTI now?

The benefit is it takes the pressure off him to make himself available asap and gives him more time to come back later in the year.

Reckon that pressure, or at least its allevation by a move to the LTI, is in your imagination. The only reason to use the LTI is for list management to bring on another player. And if that happens, getting Murph back onto the active list requires another season-ending injury for someone else.

When watching the 2 hours how many times was delivery poor - that is gave no opportunity for Cox to get a “run up”?

Delivery to Cox for best advantage seems very rare - which adds to the issue.

They also niggle and block him a lot. The delivery has been average this year all round.

What was so frustrating about Coxy the other night is that at the moment he seems far more interested in bringing this to the umpire's attention than getting the ball.

So looks like we haven’t responded to our slow start with a big training week. Hangover to continue then ?

There is a main/open session tomorrow morning.
There was a session, while more skills related, yesterday.

Pretty happy with that - we're really sloppy at the moment.

Yeah, there was a focus on perfecting the quick handballing, also moving the ball from D50 to F50. Leppa was involved in this ball movement drills. He isn't usually but guess they felt they wanted his input.

It’s the school holiday open session isn’t it?

Yup. Its prob about time they did one in the school holidays lol

We'll beat Port, and do it quite comfortably too. They're frauds on the big stage.

Loss of Leppa and Bolts from coaching ranks has killed us. Thanks Wrighty

Leppa & Bolton were already going into different roles at the club prior to Wright leaving.

Pies make several coaching changes in wake of premiership

A number of changes announced by Collingwood on Tuesday.

Have you considered opening a show at the Comedy Festival?

Do you think that Leppa and Bolton being relieved of coaching duties was a good move?
