Training - Friday 11 November, 2011

Is there anyone there who can give us a rundown of training.

At Gosch's Paddock now.

 

i went past them on the train into work this morning....they were all out at 9.50am.

 

I was at training today and Neeld & Todd Viney joined in the clearance/ stoppages drill. They were getting stuck into a few of the younger guys. Gysberts got hit with some big hits from Viney while Neeld was getting stuck into him off the ball.

Jeez that would be an awkward situation. Get the rough stuff going, yet can't go as hard as you'd like, otherwise you just might be on the outer with those 2 coaches, lol.

 

Not all players were out on the track and those that were there were all doing different drills & tasks. What I really enjoyed was seeing all the coaches getting in and working with the different groups...like the photo above shows. And from the sidelines you can hear Neeld as well.

Aaron was focussed on short sprints on his own for the whole session. The rehab guys were doing different lap running drills...well that's what Ricky said when I laughed with him about being overtaken by Grimes!

LJ is back strolling, jogging laps....dare I say, taking it easy.He's about the only player I can say that for!

When is the next open training session??

Expected to be at Gosh'sPaddock around 10 on Monday next.

anyone go?

Yes I agree what is going on with Col. If he was fit to play in the IR series and now not training what the [censored] is going on?

My guess is (based on nothing other than his absence) that he has been banned from training with the player group a la Steve Johnson, Stokes, etc.

Just not publicly stated because it creates an unnecessary media spotlight.

Part of his punishment - prove that he wants to play AFL enough to train on his own.

Probably not though.

I've not been to training so don't know if he has been running in the rehab group or not.

I went to training 3 times during the last pre-season. On every occasion Col was in the modified training group. I don't know if he has injuries that require on-going management, although i admit it's odd he was available for the IR series.

I believe when he was drafted his weakness was his endurance. The funny thing is - he looks really fit. He's 'cut' and he never seems out of shape.

Maybe he prefers working out with those Zumba dance videos to burning his legs and lungs on the running track.

According to the article in the Hun today (at the bottom) Sylvia must complete his responsible drinking course before being allowed to return to the main group.

Just saw that too. That clarifies things. Let's hope he has a great pre-season.

Ya noticed that as well. How long ago was the incident? How often do they run those courses?

I wondered if this was the case.

I don't like it. He copped the fine and the suspension.

If he's able to go full tilt and get flogged on the track and have his best pre-season ever, surely that would benefit everyone?


Love these training updates guys.....thanks.

Neeld needs to get lower. What kind of examples is this?

 

Just an off thought. What's with the new balance singlet and shorts but Nike Shoes?

Players can have their own boots sponsors, so they would provide runners too.

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
    Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
