Sausages without the bread mmmmm - Paleo

Cos otherwise the players will spike there insulin too much and have too much energy for training hard.

Don't stress though, I'll be carbed up for all of those training reports.

Ah yes. Dubai, Arizona...Maroochydore.

Equalization at its best.

I'm going to Dubai. Does that count?

Seriously though, it means absolutely nothing where you train or how far you travel by plane/bus/car.

Good teams will be good regardless. If this camp helps to push the guys physically and bonds them socially, then job done.

Spot on.

Sydney and Hawthorn are prime example for the last couple of years prove this.

Sydney and Hawthorn don't prove anything other than having a really good list wins you premierships. I bet they'd be even better with some altitude training. 1% better perhaps, but that's still better.

If they thought they would be better then they would do it. Money is no object for either club.

So not one of the original families then.

That implies they're doing everything right, which is obviously impossible.

Agree. Hawthorn has so much money that if they thought a 1% gain could be achieved by altitude training that is what they would be doing.

How did our experiment with heat and humidity in the NT go?

On the other hand maybe we would have been even worse.

....and sewerage. Didn't when I holidayed there in the Demon glory days of the 1950s.

....and that a really good list means more than just having guys who have "silky skills", physical strength and can kick a ball. They need attitude, and perhaps even more so deep commitment to their teammates.

But because snags are also high in grain the players will have to be satisfied with cooking them but watching others eat them ;-)

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    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

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership.
