Training today

Featured Replies

Posted

Thought I would venture down to junction this morning to have a look at the boys train.

Hadn't realised it was a closed session however so I was asked to leave about 30 mins in.

Here is what I saw for any interested:

* Blease and Bail both doing 100-200 meter run through's. (was good to see blease running strongly)

* Jones was doing a bit of an agility test and then did some kicking and marking. Looked to be moving well.

* Tapscott and Gawn were doing interval sort of training around the ground. Jogging and then sprinting etc.

The main group then came out.

* Jurrah was with them which excited me. Looked to be bouncing around.

* Sylvia was running fine.

I was then asked to leave by one of the staff. Definitely should have looked at the open session times on the site.

Anyway. Thought I would share it. Good to see those injured guys out there training and looking sharp.

Can't wait for Monday.

Go Dee's

Thanks alot for that stevetheman!

On the point on Blease and Bail....were they sprint run throughs? Or about 70% pace or so? If they were sprints, how did Blease's pace look compared to Bail?

Great to see Jones looked to be getting through what you would assume is a fitness test and that Sylvia didnt seem hindered at all. And great news about Jurrah. Cant wait for some Jurrahtime!

 

great thanks !

blease is brilliant news. someone sadi here other day they had a feeling blease was finished, won't make it. go figure.

No they weren't flat out sprints.

Maybe around 70 %.

They had been doing them before I arrived and Blease finished before Bail but it was good to see him running well at that

pace after what has been said on here. He then went and did some stationary drills with a few other players like Newton and Meeson.

Good to see Sylvia running but again it's only training. Not sure if he will play on Monday.

Jones looked the goods from what I could see. That is the guess of an onlooker though so I am not saying he is a certainty by

any means !

Cheers mate. Really good to see Blease up and about. Hopefully be playing with Casey soon and get some solid game time up.

great thanks !

Although I am also pleased with the news that Blease seems to be up and about, I think a lot of people have seen too many sporting careers being tragically cut short after the player badly damaged/broke their leg or ankle.

I would prefer to err on the side of caution as well, I have spoken to him a couple of times and the Club is being ultra ultra cautious, hence with him disappearing off the rader at various times people have assumed the worse.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
