Training Training Reports and Updates

[Pistol Night]

Here's a good bit from the story:

Ed and his family grew up as avid Dockers supporters, with memberships and seats at Optus Stadium. Now the family are paid up Collingwood members.

Who knew we could love a former Hawthorn player so quickly. . Seem like a ripping, well grounded family

Well, we all love Titch now!

 

[rand corp]

Murphy was almost impossible to beat one-on-one for a good while there last season, once he had found full fitness and confidence. I certainly don't see him as easy prey for anyone eyeing his spot at the moment.

 

[Pistol Night]

Well, we all love Titch now!

After listening to his podcast with Jordy and his glowing appraisal of the club my love was sealed instantly. Loving the ever increasing bromances that the club is creating with the boys.

type who's so fast, tall and going to get better...

 

[Matrix10]

Ed’s father Ben played 98 games for the Hawks , 2 short of picking him up under the F/S selection , missed it by that much , they would be spewing. On the odd , I should say very odd occasion, the footy gods look our way , just to tease us then hopefully Ed pleases us. This boy has got it all. Think Bont. Cripps , Fyffe , with more pace than all of them.

Yeah Mitch and Nick are my favourites along with Edward.

 

[Bianconeri]

Problem is he looks like he's running on sand out there, and he's still pretty lightly built compared to the guys like checkers mcstay ect

He’s listed at 97kg which is the same as Mihocek and 1kg less than McStay.

Minus the injuries...

I know I’m opening myself up stupidly for disappointment here but I think Jordy’s going to set the comp alight this year. He seems switched on and determined to prove everyone wrong. God I hope so.

 

[Fat Jesus]

Reefs start has all been injury. Rusling was something extra special. Can't compare the two although Reef looks great.

 

[JuniorB]

I'm with you PN. He seems focused on being his best, which, we've seen intermittently, is brilliant.
His 2022 finals series was excellent.
Bring that every week & he could end the season as a Norm Smith Medallist.

Ed’s father Ben played 98 games for the Hawks , 2 short of picking him up under the F/S selection

When the Hawks traded up in a pick swap with the Swans for pick 18 I was certain the move up the order was to pick Allan.
I was pleasantly stunned the Hawks chose Weddle (will be a player) & passed on Allan allowing us to select him with the very next pick
I feel we will look back on Allan's selection as an absolute bargain.

 

[Finnishpie]

Cameron was having a mare at the start but finished strongly in the second half after Cox went down.

Cameron had about 5 mare’s in the last 10 games…

 

[Finnishpie]

Murphy was almost impossible to beat one-on-one for a good while there last season, once he had found full fitness and confidence. I certainly ly don't see him as easy prey for anyone eyeing his spot at the moment.

Well, can you play him as well as Howe, Moore, and Frampton?

Who doesn’t play?

 

[Finnishpie]

I’ve thought that for about 7 seasons too…

 

[Finnishpie]

Go and watch the early part of the video where Elliot can’t sprint away from Murphy. Murphy surprisingly showed very good speed to keep up with Elliot.

We’re not really gonna conclude he’s fast are we?

 

[Finnishpie]

and Not Injury Prone like Rusling

Um…. He’s just missed the last half a season.

The hawks gave up a hell of a lot for Weddle in that trade up.

 

[KinderSmock]

I think we drafted a good kid in Ed Allan. He's replaced Henry and the difference in attitude is evident. If his family have become members having only a few months ago been cheering on Freo in a final, it shows they're very supportive. The only reason Allan was a slider was because he was injured for part of the year. Macrae, Draper, Allan are all forming part of a core that act like the professionals they are rather than kids on a youth underage team. Nick Daicos is in his own category because he's Nick.

I don't want a team of robots, I want a team of players who know how to have fun without inflicting pain on others, themselves or damaging the image and reputation of the club.

Weddle is apparently training well. Although what young player isn't in pre-season?

 

[No SPIN]

We’re not really gonna conclude he’s fast are we?

He’s not slow either based on the vision - as I said it was quite surprising.

That’s right, you need a balance of players…he’s not a rebounder and thank **** he isn’t…the rest are. He locks down, reads the flight really well. I think he’s a lock for round 1.

Not convinced about Macrae, he’s one of the unfittest on the list.
