Training - Friday November 14, 2014

Featured Replies

Lumumba is back! From Club website:

HERITIER Lumumba has started training with his new club – a few days earlier than expected.

The 2010 Collingwood premiership player was set to start with Melbourne on Monday, but fronted up for Friday’s training session at Gosch’s Paddock.

Lumumba looked sharp as he joined in with his new teammates.

The 199-gamer crossed from Collingwood during the October trade period.

The 2010 All-Australian finished fourth in Collingwood’s best and fairest in 2014.

Lumumba looms an integral part of Melbourne’s prospects next year and in the coming seasons.

H will play his 200th game in his first dees game. Lets hope it is round one and the boys do it for their old cobber.

 

Nev Jetta's the real shock for me.

Bulked up significantly!

 

I love the muscle definition on Bernie Vince ... NOT.


I've got a good feeling about Kent's upcoming season. I'm keeping him as a smokey as a cheap option for DT.

Take it from me you don't get ripped lifting a beer glass

 

The big question is: Did Nathan Jones seem committed. DID HE!?

lol.....but only if that was tongue in cheek.


Just a few observations from training.

-I won't talk about the drills really. They moved from close in drills with handball to move further and further out to longer kicking drills. They were no real forwards, mids, backs, everyone did everything.

-I was quite impressed with frost. He is tall and big and a very good mover. Had a few kicked to him too high and jumped and stretched to pull them in at the highest point. His kicking appears ok.

-H looks fit and in all the drills quite sharp considering it was his first session. He does look very different in red and blue. He really has great agility and in all the drills moved quickly. I'm happy to have a player like him playing for us. Between drills he got around to a lot of different players for a quick few words. I liked that he was really focusing on the younger guys that haven't been around long like king and hunt.

-king does look bigger but still has a way to go, especially when standing next to frost. He does appear to be a very good kick. He is well down the pecking order but hopefully he has a good run with injury and has a good year.

-Kent looks fit. Something that really stood out to me was he did a clearance drill with just viney and Goodwin working on body positioning. It was just these 3 whilst others were doing other things. He also after all the drills finished did 300m sprints with McDonald whilst everyone else went to the Anderson st hill. Kent is definitely preparing for some movement to the midfield. To me, you can really see that roosy is true to has word in developing our young players properly. Viney not spending all his time in the centre, Kent being groomed properly, seasoned bodies being brought in to protect the kids.

-I'm a huge jetta fan and have been for years. I have chatted to him quite a few times over the years and he is pretty honest about himself. I just like the way he plays. I'm a fan of his aggression. Chatted to him again today. He is getting bigger in the legs and is stronger through the core. I don't believe he is resting on his laurels after getting back on the list. I hope he has a huge year.

-gawn is a huge man and looks bigger than last year. He did the rehab stuff and then did timed runs of various distances and laps.

- lots not there today including jamar, jones, Jkh, Dunn, garlett, spencer and I didn't see tappscott. Was a few others as well.

I drove past Gosch's on the way to work this morning and saw Jones running around the oval.. this was about 7:30am.

Take it from me you don't get ripped lifting a beer glass

I don't agree. It has done wonders for my one pack.

Saw watts running around the tan at about 8.30am


Holy moly Viney looks freakin huge in that hamstring test photo that MFC just retweeted.

Or any pics, though you will need to go to Twitter for them

Hey Saty, what's your Twitter name to see said pics (pm me if it's not for publication)

not so interested in size - has anyone put on any skill over the break ?

Disagree, size, strength & fitness will help skill execution, especially under the pressure of real game time...... Not to mention the added confidence players have in their bodies.

I don't agree. It has done wonders for my one pack.

Otherwise known as a keg, no?

Whos the guy in the photo between the photos of Kent and Cross?

That's Frost from GWS aka our replacement for Chip Frawley


Noticed on the AFL site that Bontempelli has put on 7kg of muscle over the break and is moving very well at WB training.

Is there anyone on our list who has put on considerable size over the last 8 wks and is looking better for it? Toump, Salem, TMac?

Cheers.

On the MFC list or on the DL list? I have put on about 6kgs but sadly not muscle

My Twitter is Demonpk

Jack Watts spent about an hour at the Tam, came back absolutely drenched in sweat, so for somebody training on his own, didn't bludge

  • 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.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
