WBD 2015 Pre-Season

First Prudden sighting and Cassius

Fuller looks to improved his tank, shame he still has tape on his shoulders.

 

[doggies ftw]

Thought that was Smithy behind Bonts, nearly creamed myself

Lachie Hunter leads home Mitch Wallis and Bonts in the 2k time trial.....

Wasn't his tank rated well below average as a draftee. Impressive that he could turn his fitness around in a couple of years. Hopefully more midfield time and he could play that Cooney role. Lachie really does have underrated acceleration.

Think he has the agility to be really good in traffic. Great disposal too

Agility is excellent, I just think he has underrated acceleration really hopefully if his tank has improved a lot which todays effort shows then at the very least Cooney has just been replaced. Anybody seen Biggs yet!

If anyone sees and captures video/photo of Boydy taking a huge contested grab on 7 opponents plus kicks a goal from 75 out with no angle to speak of at training today, then posting it here would be greatly appreciated.

His endurance was average, but he set a record for VO2 max. Has the potential to be an endurance freak and it looks like he's starting to capitalise on that potential.

Hunter leading the time trial is big, in for a huge one I reckon

That or all the other guys are really unfit

I am pumped to see him, Rat and Honey getting massively increased midfield minutes this year.

 

[Royale]

Where's my boy JJ..

 

[Easty]

Looks like Fuller finished 4th in the time-trial which is pleasing. At least now if he doesn't make it we know it won't be from a lack of effort on his part.

The first bucket of cold water, thanks for that

Well it truly is a new generations now, Hunter, Wallis and Bonts top 3, 3 years ago it would have been Cross and Boyd. Id love to see total standings and times, but i don't think they let that stuff out publicly.

A few pics on the AFL site (I think most have already been posted here tho).

Wallis is looking huge.

Darcy Moore's stretch does not look good for his knee!

Its just the 1-4 year boys at this stage. What senior guys are left, are not back for a few weeks yet. We'll get a better idea then.

 

[paul scholes]

Where'd Liam Jones finish in the time trial? I heard he is really working hard on his fitness this year and hoping to improve his tank for a big 2015 for the Dogs.

Apparently he's just finished .

Ahh i see, would be interesting to see how the older more seasoned guys go, i assume Piken and Boyd would give the young guys a good run for their money.

Just love how the AFL once again are pushing their Pro-Giants agenda making the photo of Treloar and Cameron with the tag line "First Day back and these two couldn't be happier" as the first photo you see. Cant wait till both of them are in other colours next season (couldn't give one shite who) as long as its not that stupid orange and charcoal colour.

Matthew Boyd has not turned up yet.

It's only the kids who are training.

 

[Doggies7]

The talent we have in that 1-4 year player group...

Add in a couple of solid draft picks this year and wow, what a group.

The anti-spin caption would have read...

"First Day back and these two couldn't be happier....as they prepare for another season of weekly beltings, playing for a soulless team before empty home crowds and in a region which doesn't give a stuff about AFL."

Doesn't give a stuff is a bit harsh......they have a burning desire to not have an AFL team

Looking forward to going down in dec during my holidays and watch a few trainings.
