Riley JKH Salem and few others ought benefit from a hopefully uninterrupted preseason and come out hitting the ground running (hard) in 2015. Should have lots of new friends as well :rolleyes:

The preseason.

The panacea to all our problems? I hope so....

    Thanks guys for the updates.

    Just a fadeout or not up to it ?

    Defence was under a lot of pressure in last qtr. It would take us 3-4 kicks to get up to the wing, then a turnover and Coburg would run and bomb it long into their goals with the breeze. The fact we kept turning it over says we didn't have the necessary skills and class to work it all the way up to our forward line, despite the number of AFL players on the field. They are just playing to meet mimimum standards rather than to raise the standard.

    At the end I felt a bit like after the GWS game. Just empty. It was a very different type of game , but same outcome.

    Just so sick of following hopeless losing teams.

    We're going to be injury ravaged round one next year, as noted above I think this preseason is going to sort the men from the boys. I wouldn't be planning any boozy holidays if I were in the team.

    Feel like Misson is going to continue doing preseason like he has his whole career, won't be much different to last preseason or the one before really.

    No, just the 'serenity' some seem to enjoy might change !!

    Hard work in order to build up running fitness and also multiple changes to our list. Kinda sounds like the last few seasons. The one thing I do know that I have heard Roos is against doing massive work on the Watt bike and much more simulation running. But will be very similar to last year.

    I think the match play simulation drills will be most vital and effectively enforcing players to do that two way running, especially our key forwards.

    Possibly explains the purchase and use of them

    Craig has been a huge fan of bike training for some time, but I recall one of the first things Sanderson sorted when he took over was to sell those Watt bikes...

    I remember reading that. Pretty sure Roos did much the same this pre season.

    We should sell ours, could well fund a big recruit...

    I think Craig did some work with Australian Cycle team way before he took over as coach as Adelaide? ?

    Hell yeah. Don't lift weights on a footy field either, should be doing bench press with footballs. Really heavy ones.

    They're good as part of a cross training program and injury management but I think Craig seemed to really focus on this kind of thing too much.

    Not a waste of time totally but yep agree they don't ride 'em on the ground so surely you would have to think about getting more miles in the legs in a game type situation which seems to be the Roos approach.

    How else are players with leg or back injuries going to stay fit genius?

    Don't use any of these things on the footy field either:

    -Weights

    -Pools

    -Monitored diets

    -Balance balls

    -Ice baths

    Quick, better stop using all of them....

    Seriously though, you're the worst poster here, by a long way.

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
