Training 2025 Preseason Thread

[SugarHealey]

Dees just posted an article comparing Langford to Oliver and Trac when they started and stating he will play more as a forward in 2025.

Comical when clubs are going for speed and agility we decide to load up our forward line with blokes who can’t get out of 1st gear.

Yeah he will likely be a decent player in time but right now, he isn’t what we needed. **** Goodwins obsession with inside contest does my head in.

Yep, an article written to lower expectations on the new boy, whilst maintaining excitement.

I do not expect that Langford will play in the 1sts, until at least Rnd4/5...

I can see Langford playing early myself. Likely round one. He is ready. And will play mostly forward. Last year I would’ve thought Windsor might plays few games. But went through every game until injured.

I like that "hunt 2.0" kid

 

[Topkent]

Lol. So the captain and the president etc all say perfect club, great culture etc

19 year old kid- yeah it's shit house culture and we need to change.

Probably dropped for round 1 now for not toeing the cult lines

Best culture Gary Pert has seen in his 40 years in football, how dare Windsor say its not good enough. Smug little shit.

Ah yes best culture in 40 years Pert. I don't know why i never reviewed his history sooner

Joins Fitzroy and is part of finals teams before in the backend of the 80s they start to slump their way towards finically unstable and then onward into their death in the 90s
Leaves Fitzroy for Collingwood that plays two losing finals in his time before his last season before they slump and go missing for seven seasons after. (I'd point out one person he played footy with was questionable but not ready to debate pies fans)
Returns to Collingwood as CEO and while does oversee success (See Melbourne later lol) still the height of the rat pack and some other issues post premiership

He's kinda right though, those are some low bars to clear within 40 years

We all know Pert and Goody were putting on a bit of spin. 2 things I took away from this little puff piece. 1. Windsor is a beauty. 2. Clarry is looking fit and is clearly in a good space coming back early.
