I do requests as well! Small fee, but can cause irreparrable damage to a poster
PM for details
I'm more intrigued by this seemingly new BF gullibility test. Beats out the old bump an old thread one and hope no one notices.
There was 3 guys training with the boys today. They stood on the sidelines towards the end of the session with Dowdell, Kerridge, Grigg and Crouch etc. Anybody know who they are? Bit of a pointless question seeing as we were the only ones sitting on that side of the oval. But any ideas?
Thommo and Truck didn't train the whole time. Truck is so gonna be a coach or something alike in the future. He yells alot of direction from the sidelines.
Chris Knights went off with a cut to the head then came back out and did some kicking by himself then rejoined the group.
There was some shocking hair out there, Patty, Tex and Jaensch to name a few.
Like I said there were a few boys training that we had no idea who they were =|
Will Young and Sam Shaw or Talia (can't remember now) spend a while in the sandpit walking around LOL
My observations are limited and hardly footy related LOL

Probably would have been Talia due to his achilles surgery. Walking on unstable surfaces is good for strengthening muscles around the foot and ankle area.
A number of the players are tweeting today was the hardest session ever

The younger or older players??
Jaensch said it was one of the hardest ever, Tex said of the preseason and Bernie and Jenkins said they are flogged.
There were quite a few people there - but obviously no one who does reports! I spent most of the session trying to get sunscreen out of my eyes (so painful!), so even I won't be much help. BUT at the end of the session, they had a coaches v players goal kicking...the players won but speaking to Sando afterwards he seemed pretty disappointed that the players beat them
! From what I saw, Sando was the only coach who kicked a goal - he cheered & seemed pretty happy with himself, but got no love from the players, but when a player (I had a restricted view so I couldn't tell which players were kicking for goal) kicked a goal they went into a massive celebration. It was good seeing them having a bit of fun after a long, hard session Looks like the two unknowns training with them may have been Josh Gregg from North Adelaide and Ed Smart from Norwood
Saw this article a few days ago in the Radvertiser on Gregg:

At the very least you think he'd be athletic.

Cheers. Yeah you'd have to think he would be. Interesting. I still can't find anything on Smart. Damn being in Melbourne!
Beauty!
I hope to go to the 1st one of the year if on a Tuesday (if I make it home alive from Bali LOL)
FYI according to AFC twitter account only two more open training sessions for the remainder of the year. Both being on Thursdays.
Another article on Josh Gregg:
http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/afl/another-princes-star-on-afl-radar/story-fn525un5-1226122693960
"JOSH Gregg may go on to get drafted and play AFL but he is sure he won't forget his time with Prince Alfred's First XVIII.
The 17-year-old Year 12 student has captained Princes this year and regards last year's Messenger Shield and state knockout competition triumphs as among the highlights of his burgeoning career.
His efforts for Princes' and North Adelaide's reserves have caught the eye of AFL scouts.
Last week he was invited to October's State Draft Combine, where some of SA's top hopefuls will undertake physical tests under the watch of AFL coaches and recruiters.
etc etc "

I'm in Melbourne too so like to read these reports. It's ironic tho' because I can see the Bombers training several days a week from my Gym at Windy Hill. Last week they were practising cricket fielding where several players would hit a tennis ball and other players would run and throw it back. I immediately thought they were "too soft" but being Essendon they usually have several hard players on their side. Some of the fielding was quite good. The only scare I had was several years ago when Scott Welsh shared a sauna session with me. I was so awed I couldn't even remember his name let alone ask if he was leaving the Crows.
