Why are people downvoting this???

That’s the question I have asked myself I wouldn’t have a clue

Probably just Kayno. He hates any form of long contract and he hates anything to do with us.

 

[Libbaaaa]

ASICS didn't even finished in the top 10 of our BnF, just poor.

Freijah spoke on local radio over the weekend about this year and next. He spoke outstandingly so composed and mature just like on the field. He was big wraps on Bevo, Bont, Liam Jones

and Libba. He did that he think Sanders will take things to another level next year and to keep an eye out for him. He also said Jacques will be living with him and McNeil next year now that Bendendo has left the club.

He also said Jacques will be living with him and McNeil next year now that Bendendo has left the club.

It makes you wonder how someone like Freijah could slip through every single club recruiting department given the amount of high end traits he seemingly possesses.

He only turned 19 last week as well.

The fact that he did slip through means there’s still uncertainty, opportunity and romance left in the draft. Despite the fact that every year the draft pool is cut, sliced and diced every which way and is over-analysed to death.

I love the fact that for all that, the scouts, recruiters and specialist draft pundits are never more than 95% right.

First time trial, and obviously not all players back yet...

You mean there are some still out there staggering around the course?

It was only the first to fourth year players doing the time trial

 

[Freshwater]

Geez, I much prefer these shades of red and blue to what's been used the last few years.

I disagree. The true royal blue we have now is much better and traditional. We don’t clash with dark teams as much too. We got a bit darker in the 90’s but that was probably just poor replication of colours from less competent manufacturers rather than consciously.

Who came last?

 

[weltschmerz]

Who came last?

Lachie Smith was way back there I think

 

[geoffjennings79]

It was only the first to fourth year players doing the time trial

Plus Lobb, Weightman, Arty Jones, Scott, Duryea and Liber. Or at least they were in the video of arrivals the club posted.

The rookies ran it? I always thought the club held them back in their first week. Just touring facilities, introductions to the program, media stuff, light training etc.

 

[BEaston]

I think I saw in the video that arty was in 4th or 5th place to finish. Good sign.

 

[Hoges64]

Yeah, he and JOD were battling to the line at the end there.

I almost didn't recognise JOD, seems to have bulked up a bit.

Gardner there too.

Interesting that Mennedy run it, I guess he's a first year "arrival", but still...

Running 2kms isnt exactly hard training, and it would give them an idea of where they sit relative to AFL players

Speak for yourself.

Me after 2km

Most recruits tend to rock up as soon as possible, no matter the age. Rory Lobb was in with the 1-4yr players after he came across via trade. I think it is a smart move. Get in, build a routine, get to know the blokes and the facilities etc, and set a good first impression.

Still waiting on Big Will and Zephania Skinner.

I'm looking forward to Sanders shedding the puppy fat and becoming a beast.

It looks like he has started that journey.

 

[Whoyagot]

Hard to keep your powder dry with Freijah

• dominant jnr game of 30+ disposals, 5+ goals.
• largely under the radar on draft boards.
• late bday
• comes into a senior team and looks composed and makes an impact straight away
• BOG in a VFL final.
• highly dedicated professional attitude. (First in time trial)
• speaks like and takes on responsibilities like a player 10 years his senior

remind you of anyone?

Definitely looks abit more ripped than last year. Hopefully there’s still room for him with the acquisition of M. Kennedy. We really need to pump the games into him. Too good for VFL.
