Training Pre Season ‘25

[Tiger_Of_Old]

We do when we steal them off others.

Who visits Traralgon?

 

[Hank Heavenly]

Both teams are forming a circle and Noah Balta and Liam Ryan are gonna duke it out at Hungry Jacks Traralgon.

HJ's at Claremont (if it's still there), outside Club Bay View (Club BaySpew)

Much better fighting location

Caesar training report today on PRE
Training Today Monday:

Another big training session, 150 minutes in sticky conditions, interspersing game drills with match sim and some serious running drills.
Anyway I am not doing a comprehensive report today, i did that Friday, rather putting the record straight as it is quite ridiculous what some people run with when I said Lalor was not prominent in his first match sim on Friday.

So Lalor today:

One he trained the full 150 minutes, only sitting out the big running sessions that all the new boys sit out, however he did do a few shorter run throughs with a smaller group that included McCauliffe who is still primarily in conditioning, anyway pre Christmas McAuliffe was quite easily winning the sprints for the 1-4 year players, well, on the couple of high speed run throughs Lalor finished about on par with him

I am starting to notice a change in his body shape already, from looking a beast in a puppy fat sort of way and a bit heavy across the ground to being leaner, a bit more defined and moving better.

In general ball movement drills he was smacking targets lace out.

In a 5 minute in tight 'Handball Game' he was a standout.

Match Sim which did not start with centre clearances, (whether teams scored a goal or a point all of match play started from kick ins). Anyway Lalor was used and found the ball a lot but the highlight was a strong running vertical leap grab under pressure from Samson Ryan, (at this point there was raucous applause and guffaws and someone, coach or player, yelled out "here we go".



When they broke up for 'Role Mastery' Lalor was doing forward body work against Simms and Ziebell.
In set shot goal kicking practice from about 40 out dead in front he kicked about 10 straight, (not as accurate on the snap).

Hopefully that puts paid to people jumping at shadows?

Sounds like a propaganda poster.

All about Lalor, is Smillie injured?

I feel we need a poll.

Smillie was in rehab last report from Caesar. He hurt his hip or something pre new year.

 

[captain blood 17]

Who visits Traralgon?

Apparently every campaigner from Melbourne while you guys were in lockdown.

 

[RFCGloryJC]

Gibcus has returned to training with the rehab group according to Caesar. He's alive.

Proof of life.
Newspaper with the date on it.

Lalor kicking darts and breaking hearts

Who wears sneakers in Traralgon?

Upper Traralgon.

All about Lalor, is Smillie injured?

Yep, feel better about lalor now, but panicking about the other 7, no mentions at all.

Alger particularly must have gone backwards big time in the last week

Frankston Macca's carpark was basically the UFC Octagon back in the day.

I feel we need a poll.

I feel a Tournament idea forming.

apparently smilie didnt get a touch

smoking darts and breaking hearts at lalor station

fixed

 

[Richmond Flats]

Lalor is another slow low possession mid by the sounds of things. Should’ve just kept Jack Graham and drafted Jagga.

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Apparently every campaigner from Melbourne while you guys were in lockdown.

What a choice.
Covid or Traralgon

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

Shoula went Bolegged

 

[SMILLIE]

Lalor isn’t low possession, he was when he was stuck in the pocket for country, but he’ll be in the middle for us. Thought 75/25 MID-FWD split from the first match sim is about the only interesting bit of preseason news so far

 

[captain blood 17]

What a choice.
Covid or Traralgon

Yep, one location a traffic jammed shithole covered in shit and graffiti.
The other, 40 minutes from beaches, camping sites, the snow, top rated restaurants etc. Slower paced and the standard of local sport etc is exceptional.
Tough choice…..

 

[SMILLIE]

FOS having a quiet preseason according to norf training reports, might get lost out on a wing for them

He's on fraud watch. Couldn't get a kick off heroin.

 

[Lord of the Wings]

I told you all he was a dud and we should have picked Tauru

Tanking to get to us in a trade for our 2026 second-rounder.
