Training 2025 Pre-Season /// THEY’RE BACK! /// QLD “relationship building & hard work” camp is early December

[shinboner magic]

Humour me this.

Imagine if this year Moose shows the expediential growth as a footy player that Xerri did last year.

If he enters the home and away season with not just an AFL standard tank, but also the game sense, and set shot technique to compliment his excellent contested marking.

It could change the make-up of the whole side.

Then we take his mask off

 

[Tiberius]

There was 15 or less running. He looks good but we heard all this last preseason. No need to suck each other's dicks just yet, let's see how he goes when they run the proper 2k.

So if WiPhi does well in the 2k trial in a month, it might be time for us to suck each other's dicks?

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Understand he's been injured, but we really need Duurs to show the commitment and work ethic that Sheez, Wardlaw and McKercher have shown.

Posters said he was at training but was benched in a hat indicating being in the injured group.
Did you want him to give the coaches the finger and go against what he'd been asked to do?

A man can dream!

We've had some good runs picking talls later on in drafts (Ben Brown & Larkey), it would be a beautiful thing if Maley could come on and consistently contribute 2 contested marks per game and kick 30+ in a season. I don't think it's beyond him.

I honestly can't recall someone so raw with such elite contested marking ability. His 13 mark game against Carlton in the VFL this year was stupidly good. His 8 mark and 2 goal game against Casey was impressive as well.

He finished mid field in the first to four year crew, it's an improvement but it's not great. Top 10 might be dick sucking time, I don't think he'll be top 15.

Was Will Dawson training yesterday ?

Was Will Dawson training yesterday ?

Yes he was, there’s photos on fb

Every single first to fourth year player was there plus some older players back early

Will Dawson's development is super super important to us. Happy for you to give us your Nostril verdict when it arrives.

Hell ****ing no, as you said Dawson is super important, so Nostrils can leave him the **** alone.

Lock him in, 250 game 3x Premiership Hero. That's what I was waiting for, opportunity for the Reverse-Nostra!

You do get more than a few right and I am a closet fan of your ability to not lose it despite being (sometimes rightfully) ganged up on regularly, to be fair.

I was at that VFL game. It was as good a marking performance I've ever seen. Consider that it is VFL, but when the ball is in the air and you've gone up the talent is measured the same way. For me, after that day his potential as a top level footballer is unquestionable.

Thought it was pretty obvious it was a general statement about overall training, not specifically about yesterday. Particularly given feedback we got on him last year around his training.

Preseason bingo:
– [Player] needs to hit the gym
– Where's [Player] should have come back early.
– Was [Player] training? (Answer is always yes he was)
– [Player] still carrying puppy fat
– Surprised at where [Player] finished in the time trial.
– We'll play finals.
– We're winning the Premiership.
– We're finishing bottom four.
– Was [Player] training with the main group? (Answer is always no he was with the rehab group)

EDIT (as per Nostra)
– When's the official intra club?

After seeing some of the pre season training snaps of the boys, I’m sold! We’re playing finals next season.

And the recipe for success is slowly coming to the boil......hehehe........

 

[Chadwiko]

Is it accurate to describe 6th out of 17 as 'mid field'? I suppose. But feels overly negative.

Oh wait, I just noticed who I was responding to...

 

[Chadwiko]

I responded to this dude on Twitter but I want to know where he's getting his info from.

You do get a fair few right Nostra but this one you will be wrong.

W Dawson will be a beauty - not Wayne Carey like - but imo very much in the Drew Petrie mould - will play back, forward and ruck where required and will be a leader in due course.

Has an excellent attitude, wants to learn and succeed.

I'll give you to the half way mark of 2025 to revise your opinion.

Spot on comparison SBG

Is Dawson 203cm?

The **** are we fluffing about with these 193cm draft picks and trying to shuffle back to get them?
