Training Pre Season '24

[tiger_tough]

I dont think Grimes is the only one cooked, sounds like the team is cooked. #veryconcerning

What is? A couple of uninspiring sessions in a row? We won't properly know until the match sim starts

 

[Muddiemoose]

Not a bad watch, Lambo talking about our young small forwards
Cambell definitely looks like he is looking to play the first game

I'm highly concerned about the lack lustre training and intensity, i understand pre Xmas but they should be hitting their straps by now. It doesn't seem odd to you? It's the end of January.

Not odd to me

What exactly makes you think we are lacking training intensity?

Just seems more the club are keeping things more in house this year, I prefer it compared to the Essendon style of having the media come in every day and say every player is training the house down

Weve all been reading reports from various supporters all summer, seems to be a preseason of running laps. Maybe im wrong, i hope i am but forgive me for not buying into the "everything is now rosy" that most of us are hoping for.

Maybe the club is scared to lift the intensity after last year's injury crisis, you would hope not.

To be fair I haven't watched any training sessions but Caesar has praised some earlier sessions so it may well be all part of the plan. Dees have typically had one of the more intense preseasons for the last few years so I'm sure things will ramp up for match sim, hopefully very soon.

Going off the reports I’ve read the only players that are running laps are the ones on restricted programs due to injury or niggles

But while those guys are running laps the rest of the squad are training as per usual

 

[Tiger2709]

Cameras that weren’t bought at K-Mart would have been an obvious starting point.

Your first mistake was using the plural.

 

[Tiger2709]

I bet they have better cameras at afl house !

Only in the ladies toilets.

Lambo tells it straight…
kids coming along nicely

love Lambo

I was at Wonthaggi,boys looked hard at it.Save the intense for private sessions,they looked ready to go and Dusty looked the fittest yet.

love Lambo

Would he say its straight if they weren't coming along nicely?

 

[Muddiemoose]

Would he say its straight if they weren't coming along nicely?

Probably just not mention them at all… ie Rioli

It will be difficult to cut out the noise if we start bad. Connection and engagement is the key

I’m trying to lower my expectations and just go into this season looking for improvement and development from our young guys

Easy to say in theory but I’m sure once the season starts I’ll be just as invested in wins and losses as any other year

 

[beema limapep]

We are gunna have a bad year.

Meh
It’s all relative
Got to go backwards to go forwards

Yep me too

But I have to say the MM (mainstream media) have underrated our list.

Taranto
Hopper
Lynch
Shai
Dusty
Prestia
Baker
Rioli (Danielson)
Short
Balta
Nankervis
Vlass
All decent players

All we need is a few young boys to step up and we are going to be ok

100%
I don’t think we will be shit per sae but I think we will have some big momentum swings throughout the year

Looking forward to taking some big scalps when everyone has written us off even if we aren’t a genuine finals threat

 

[Tiger2709]

We are gunna have a bad year.

If that's to be the case I'm grateful we took our chances when the window was open.

Personally I think we still have a pretty good team, a lot will depend on injuries though.

We really need a fit Lynch, if he doesn't play for most of the season then we will be even worse than some are predicting.

I have no expectation, but i will say if the season is turning to crap and we arent trying players in different spots or injecting youth it will be another wasted season.

As you said we still have some real talent on the list so if we don't develop then it's a waste on those players too.

Had to monitor Lethlean

From Caesar PRE….https://www.puntroadend.com/threads/2024-training-with-the-ooze-crew.58301/page-88

Dusty a week in rehab, but as per injury report just a turned ankle, (ran laps and straight lines for about 90 minutes.
Prestia now a week in rehab ran laps with Dusty for awhile except did a lot more.
Bauer enters his 3rd week of rehab.
Coulthard has been in rehab since the 18th Dec but has not appeared in the clubs injury report, doing plenty of running and looks close but I did see physios working on his calf for about 15 minutes but then in got up and ran plenty of laps
Cumberland enters his 2nd week in rehab, he says it is just a niggle?
Grimes sad to see him doing very little pre and post Christmas bring on the new breed, Grimesy looks cooked.
Juddy & Young : Doing all but contact drills, still doing grappling sessions to test out and strengthen their respective shoulders.


Ross, Baker & Shorty back with main group

SHAI!! Finally back to making other players look stupid
Hopper Is having a good pre-season

I am not seeing a lot to get excited about the last couple of sessions, (3 hour session yesterday), hopefully that changes soon.

Won't see Wednesday's session but should get there for Friday's

just retire grimes now

Far from it skills has taken a massive priority kicking etc under Yze and moving the ball quicker ,identified right away as issues. Our skills have been poor last couple of years. I'm happy with the running to we looked unfit last year preseason was a mess.

It's going to be a ride this year and next let's embrace we need this rejuvenation.
