Training - Monday 31 October, 2011


Harcourt

Recommended Posts

I'll be there and I'm pumped to see how Mitch Clark goes and if Sylvia is away from the main group, if he's there at all! Should be good to see what they do, I'd imagine mostly skills rather than running, put on some sort of a show for the fans. Also i got the text too and they said goodies, I wonder?

Tweet from the club:

"Pre-season training starts tomorrow. Boys will be on the track around 9:45am @ Gosch's Paddock. Plenty of hard work ahead."

Your reports are most welcome and we will also try to put up a training summary on our articles board incorporating some of the best passages from the training reports.

Also, don't expect our IR trio of Brad Green ©, James Frawley and Jack Trengove to feature at this week's training. Chippa just tweeted that he's arrived on the Gold Coast.

My enthusiasm for the coming season is almost as strong as the disappointment of the last

I need to pay the bills so I wait with a dry mouth any reports, I thank you in advance those that get to training and report,

but I was keen for this stuff last year, how well did that go...

I can remember some Geelong supporter friends feeling simillar a few years ago,

Now wouldn't that be nice, Hang on and enjoy the ride, the Good and notso,

Go Dees Give 'em HELL !!!

While Full Metal Jacket is great. I hope that we don't go down that path.

Come round 1 I would much prefer the boys to be good at football rather than cleaning guns and marching while singing.

This is my football.

 

There are many others like it, but this one is mine.

My football is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.

Without me, my football is useless. Without my football, I am useless.

I must kick my football true.

 

I must kick straighter than my enemy who is trying to beat me.

I must defeat him before he defeats me. I will.

Before Stynes, I swear this creed: My football and myself are defenders of my Club.

We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my team.

So be it, until there is no Enemy, but Victory.

 

Go Dees.

Look forward to reading the training reports, and being unrealistically bullish for 2012.

<insert players name> looks huge! Must have packed on 5kg of muscle in the past 4 weeks!

Thought the same thing.

Expect reports that certain players are "training the house down"

I hope many, many MFC players are "training the house down!!".

I also hope "<insert players name>" is Cale Morton and he has put on 5kgs in the last month, he sure needs to!

Even if reports are a touch exaggerated, I am more than happy to have any positive training stories put up on this forum. Its been a big off season for the club, but all in all it comes down to the players doing the work and improving. My fingers are crossed that this pre season is the one that starts a big upswing for the club.

Any photos from anyone down there today would be super!

Great. We need more muscle in the middle.

All be it in 12 months time with regards to Jack..Again developing muscle is an ongoing thing..some seem to have developed a little more.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
