It is a dying art in the modern age.....actually I think Jesse will be a cross between Paul and Hulk....crush opponents but make them laugh while he is doing it

You are probably right subtlety is a lost ability in the world of Facebook and Tweeter

When Muggleton was doing the tackling drill, he would stop and berate if not done properly pointed out a couple ot times and named players......

It's great that he knows their names - implies that this isn't the first time he's worked with them. This is something they need to do over & over.

IIRC, after they worked with the Storm's guy their tackling improved ... for a week or two.

Thanks to the locals for these training reports. It keeps my MFC-blood-levels up durng the off-season. Love the descriptions of the intense training this year & Jesse Hogan.

I am reminded of a quote that I heard from an NFL player this week, "I don't expect results, I expect effort. The results will look after themselves". It could be the motto for MFC in 2013, me thinks.

That has to be a misquote.

Surely it must be " You should expect results after you put in the effort"?

Is there another Reiwoldt that we don't know about?

Reiwoldt family seem prolific breeders down here in Tassie. Have watched at least 3 over the last few years at U10-U15 level - all stood out (if only for being tall and pale skinned)

I was there and took some photos, will post a bit more later, spoke to Jesse Hogan, cool kid, lookin fwd already to playing in the VFL, target weight for him to play at 104KG, so just a medium sized fwd then

Jeeezus! That's a big load for a teenage frame to take.

I don't think my little car can take a 104kg load!

What's wrong with you people??

104kg would be Hogan's EVENTUAL target weight.

He'd never aim for that as an 18 year old.

Use your brains FFS...

I'm sure all those that have seen Hogan at training have noticed the strut he's got going. When you look at him you just think this guys got something about him. Kinda like a young Johno Brown or even a young Wayne Carey. I'm not saying he's going to be that good but he's got that confidence about him.

I have been putting reports

But this is what happened as far as I can remember

Warm up

Handball drill

Tackling drill

Bit more evasive work

Gut running

End to end in restricted area

End to end on full pitch

Warm down

I have only spoken to Jesse Hogan once and walked away super impressed

Having watched and played all three, with Rugby League (Storm) the days of one person tackling are long gone.

Rebels Union, this still happens in broken play and would be more beneficial to AFL.

Muggleton was actually showing them the technique on how to tackle, shoulders over feet etc. and if a player steps left (unless they are one of the freakishly talented indigenous players) will then go right, and vice versa, and even if they spin they will spin right....common sense but you do need to be told this.

It was all good especially when he immediately stopped it if somebody went arm waving.

Settle Gretle.

The post that originally mentioned this talked of him looking fwd to playing in the VFL next year and that his target weight was 104kg, all in the same sentence. It could be taken that may have been his target whilst playing VFL next year.

No need for poster abuse.

JM always needs to calm down but if this is abuse we need to be less sensitive.

Sorry rpfc, didn't realise that telling someone they have something wrong with their brain and anachronism swearing was perfectly fine. In which case, José is brain dead and can GAGF. But I digress, back to training reports...

If somebody can tell me how to post a pic here, not a link but to post, I can post one of the tackling pics....tried pasting but my wonderful computer laughed at me.........I am a real believer in the synopsis of the Terminator films

You need to upload your photos to a site such as Photobucket (that's what I use anyway) and then you paste a link to each photo when you click on the "Image" icon (small square button below the smiley face) when you post on the thread.

Imploring someone to use their brains, to think, should not be seen as unreasonable.

It's a silly jump to make, that Hogan would be carrying 104kg as an 18 year old, and a little bit of thought would prevent the handful of illogical posts.

HTFU.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
