Training Pre-Season 2023 (First game 18/3 v North)

[WCE_phil]

Imagine the sook from the Vic clubs if the AFL sent all the captains to Alice Springs or something.

Can we send about 16 of the club captains to Alice Springs to do it on a Friday night.......

Where's all the Duggan haters.
The backline will be tough to get a gig this year!!

 

[Yeahnahmate]

We should have sent Rick The Rock. It’s such a dumb thing to have to fly east for anyway so deep in the lead up to R1

Or send a fan from Big Footy.

I can't stop laughing at the positioning of the players.

Whats BS is that we are seen on the same level as that shitkicker club North. Hidden away in the center with the two thugs Greene/Jonas in the front row

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

Already our best captain.

Clearly the official AFL photographer was on the piss today...

 

[Biggie]

Who the * is Judd McVee

Dees backman. Small lock down type with a neat kick

 

[VicBased]

I would hope he is sitting down, I really really hope he is sitting down

 

[MaxHunt]

Shows Nanks hight as well (199). Something Williams and Jamo should take note of. 200 cms is big enough for the ruck if you apply yourself and give it a crack.

There’s absolutely no point sending Shuey to Melbourne for something as pointless as captains day

It’s just one of those annoying little things that highlight the inequity of the league with the Vic/non-Vic divide that is easily forgotten/ignored

There’s 10 Victorian clubs and the AFL is based there so it makes sense for league wide meetings to be held in Melbourne from a logistical pov. But it means that clubs who are already over burdened with travel have another trip added

So why send Shuey 4 hours each way just to get a couple of photos with the other captains, answer a handful of inane questions and fill out a pointless survey

Not denying it’s inequitable, but we’re still sending someone over, so it’s still impacting someone’s recovery. Fair enough if we don’t send Shuey because he has had an interrupted preseason, but I wonder if he’s so fragile that they’ll also manage his flying throughout the season

We should’ve sent Jacko Nelson

I’ve no doubt he’ll be managed throughout the season as will Hurn

 

[DanWCE]

I'm not a fan of that for the captain. If you take on the role you're expected to be available every week. I agree with you that he will be managed, but in a year when so many other clubs seemingly got their captain succession planning right, feels like we missed a trick.

Shuey could've led on field without the title, just as Hurn has.

 

[tigger_ferret]

Why not have the photo op during the ‘Gather’ round.

I get it is round 5 but the AFL aren’t exactly prompt at making decisions or providing critical information.

It's just as pointless for Duggan.

Unfortunately we have to send someone.

Barrass’ partner has just had a baby so not him.

Could have sent Gov I suppose

Or send Duggan who can catch up with his folks on what I would expect is an AFL funded flight
