Training Pre-Season 2025 - (Pre-pre-season?) - Road to Flagmantle

Yes but it helps you get to September.

The model for a WA team is to win all home games, snag as many away games as you can, secure a home final and sail into the rest of the finals with a wet sail and full of confidence. Anything else and you're done for. Too hard.

We've got the away games part, more or less. We just need to make Burswood an impenetrable fortress.

Weirdly while we have quite a few parts of the puzzle, they're not the parts you would expect to have first. We were doing the tricky sky bits in the middle when we should have started on the edge.


Spot on.

If we win 11 or 12 out of 13 games at Optus next year we're set for a big year. Then we just need to beat Richmond in the Barossa who should be terrible and 4 of our other 9 interstate games to finish top 4.
 
Making finals is not my dream. winning premierships is

Yes luck sometimes comes into injuries during season. but you have to make your own luck by training to the level that beats teams even when you missing 2 players.

yed we will cheer the team if they make top 4, we will cheer our win at home finasl if it occurs.

But we will be changing all our thoughts once we lose GFs against teams we only met once every year and get outplayed. Hmmm how did we lose the only GF we ever played in after winning home finals

WE finished minor premirerships in another year and didnt get to paly GF.

so Premierships are what we are after, is the DRAW fair, no. is travelling every 2nd week fair, no.

But we must overcome all obsticles and beast the best, any where any time.

Until then we can tell the world all the WHYs but they will not care until we win the premiership
 
Does anyone even remember when Sydney got to play against the AFL U19s All Stars team twice in their premiership 2012 season, beating them for a combined 157 points in a season where 3rd on the ladder and 6th was a single win difference and their percentage pushed them into third ahead of the Pies?

Nope.

So if we can play the U15s QLD girls AFL team four times in 2025 for four wins and four 100 points plus wins I will take it.

I wouldn’t expect to see Odin Jones out there today. I’ve heard this morning he has broken back and may be out for a fair while. I assume this will open up another rookie list spot but will this have to be after the draft?

Treacy Update


The 22-year-old spearhead is coming off a career-best 45 goal season, but it was abruptly ended in round 21 because of a knee injury that he will manage leading into the new year.

Treacy’s fitness was the subject of much speculation late in the season as the Dockers tried to cling to a finals berth before eventually falling short after losing their final four games to slip out of the top eight.

“We didn’t win so I guess we’ll never know,” Treacy told reporters on his prospect of playing finals.

“We were willing to give it a go but we’ll never know because we weren’t in a position to be able to give it a go.

“I’m not 100 per cent (on when I will be back to full training), it’s probably out of my hands at the moment but I will be in and out for a couple of weeks and then I’ll be good to go.”
 
Okay, who was TTHD today? Anyone watching?

But on a serious note - who will be our next leaders of the young group? No more Andy and Caleb in the young group.

Feel like JT would be a driver this pre season, but next year he won't be there? Next year who do we think would take on that leadership mantle amongst the young group?
