Went to training today with my lovely lady and walked back towards AAMI with JKH

Asked him how he ended up on Wingard during Alice game, said it is a team rule that if you end up caught from your opponent, you are to take the nearest match and stick with it till a stoppage in the forward half allows a safe changeover, Nev Jetta was on the bench so JKH stuck with Wingard till Nev came back on...team first

He is really excited about the QB game, I said the team is so close to clicking and winning on a regular basis, he said (paraphrasing) "don't worry we want it now, we aren't waiting 2 years"

Other notes, Nathan Jones hopes Macaffer goes to Dom Tyson and Dom Tyson hopes he goes to Nathan Jones, they both had a good laugh about it

The training session was excellent, nothing but ball movement and stoppages

And Christian Salem thinks Chile are a good outside bet for the World Cup

They only have to beat us and one other. Netherlands and Chile will be a great match.

The result of the group will come down to that match, yeah. Netherlands aren't a patch on what they were four years ago, so Chile do have a chance.

I would have thought being a professional footballer that would have been a given.

A nice statement and fantastic young man however hardly "quote of the year"

I can. At his height and build you have to be exceptional. Fortunately I think he will be exceptional.

The problem is that you unflinchingly believe everything you're told by them, and attempt to defend even the indefensible.

Other than that, thanks for the insight.

It's a fairly logical strategy, but one that doesn't appear to have always been in place.

With an excessively young and inexperienced side like ours, you need to find simple rules to stick to when players get lost.

No wonder we have consistently played for a boundary throw-in even when easily avoidable.

I've always thought of it as allowing us to reset and ensure our structures are tight without the pressure of a live ball.

Obviously the dead ball also gives us an opportunity to switch back opponents and avoid all the mismatches the opposition has worked to create.

This tactic is crucial for a young team with the advent of the single runner this year.

Agreed. Dawes' quote about Alex Rance surely takes the top price.

I am sure that I read somewhere that they were expecting a daughter.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9.
