Training Pre Season '24

[Karp3_dm]

Also Kingsley seems like a no nonsense type of guy.

Yeah 100% he just walks out of woke meetings and goes straight into bicep curls in the gym

 

[Timothy Luncheon]

Any training session updates?

I'd guess it'll be at the end of his contract whether he retires or gets a 1 year deal at West Coast with a post career coaching role, the article says their house is only at the early stages so doubt they are in a rush

Going by my recent building woes.Broady can play for us until he's 40 before the keys are handed over.

imagine dusty made the same comment as guisseppe

no way he gets sacked

What comment?

 

[Roachy8]

rip guissepe

another victim of woke camel culture

gagf

A coupla days late but an edit that had to be done....

 

[RobsJourney]

I'd love to see this team run out Round 1 vs Carlton

Grimes, Young, Broad
Vlastuin, Gibcus, Short
Ross, Hopper, Taranto
Bolton, Balta, Baker
Cumberland, Lynch, Green
Nankervis, Martin, Prestia
D. Rioli, Dow, Graham, Pickett

Emg/ Naismith, McIntosh, Brown, McAuliffe, Koschitzke

Looking at that 22, do you reckon we lack a medium marking forward, like a Fritsch or Langford?

That used to be Caddy and is otherwise the resting midfielder like Dusty or maybe Taranto will spend some time there, but I feel like it's a position we're not strong in. It will likely be Cumberland but he is probably a bit too short to be considered a medium.

What does woke mean

Once upon a time it referred to anyone who gave a s**t about anyone other than themselves, but now it just means anybody who thinks school shootings are a bit of a bad idea. At least, it does in America.

apparently.... big Tommy Lynch has hired out his moon boot to Rhino Mansell

What about Opening Round?

Any training session updates?

here’s Caesars report from pre

Training Today Friday:

Now that the practice matches are in play everyone can see for themselves how the players are going so my reports when I do them will be more injury/ management observations or if there is anything of note.

Lynch: Did a lot less than I expected, did warm up and one lot of drills with main group, (probably an hours worth all up), so yet to do a full session with main group.
Prestia: There were noises about Prestia getting some game time on Tuesday v Collingwood but today he did warm up and initial drills with main group but when it came to 15 minute qtr of match sim, he only did 5 minutes, then stood and watched and then went inside. So are they managing him for minutes on Tuesday or other? I am still not exactly sure where he is at.
Bauer: Having basically not trained with main group pre and post Christrmas he was absent today.
Mansel: In his moon boot
Nank: Still rehab.
Oliver Hayes-Brown, Mate`, Fawcett: Just walked laps, think it is back issues for Mate' and Fawcett?
Hopper: Was out there but did not do match sim drill or anything after that, I heard a snippet somewhere that he may have been dragged down late in Melbourne match sim and got his leg caught? anyway there didn't seem too much wrong so probably just managing him.
Grimes: Trained fully.

Biggest plus today from session:

Mkelti: In the 15minute match sim he took 5 one grab marks, (ps. i may not put money down on his set shot kicking though on today's viewing). **I think they may even play Lefau on Tuesday although I am not sure if they are going to have extended benches for that match?

???????:

Cumberland: After giving him much praise earlier in pre-season and improved body language he seems to have dropped off a bit and showing signs of frustration?, don't know whether that's with his body or just his mindset, (just an observation that could be totally off the mark but we are in the opinion business).

Yeah I agree…

The interview I saw a month or so ago he sounded like he had flicked the switch and gone full pro..

but for sure he still got some doubts and demons in his head that he needs to learn to control better

If he can he will be some player for many years to come

That’s the thing…it seems any setback he experiences he seems to take 3-4 steps back as if that’s a stain on his character

he is a bloody hard trainer…he is disciplined…but as you say, he has still got demons in his head

He needs a mentor that’s come out the other side to help him

he is definitely worth persevering with

That’s exactly how I see it… needs a mentor that he fully respects and looks up to by his side

Club should recognize and assist with this and I’ve got no doubt he will crush

Purely mental with Cumbo but the best thing is you know he wants it badly

Wow that doesn’t sound great for lunch or Prestia

 

[AstuteTiger]

Nah all good re Prestia may play a half V Pies or straight to round zero v Suns in two weeks time.
Lynch last week was training really well, maybe backed off a bit this week. Still aiming for RD 1 V Carlton which is 3 weeks away.
