Training - Wednesday 21st January, 2015 at Maroochydore



Recommended Posts

With supporters putting in efforts like this RB, they better win a few games (side nod to WJ) this year.

Might get me one of those cherry pickers to get to a few games this year. Think Roosy is onto something.

Fantastic stuff as always RB - it's been greatly appreciated over the last week and a half. Can understand a little grumpiness in the players but pleased to hear that they still had it in them to lift their efforts on the final day. Beginning to get excited for the year ahead. Cheers!

Well done Rb on your reports!

Gee Vince has had a poor pre season. Jan 21 and he's still not training consistently. Not his fault of course. He's my early nomination for a down year, just like Garland last year due to his interrupted pre season.

I don't know....he's running really well and been solid over the last 11 days. Surely it has a lot to do with needing to get his shoulder built back up before full contact training - He'll be cherry ripe come round 1

* Good spirit amongst the guys, playing what looked to be a cross between ring a ring a rosie & pass the parcel football style.

Should have this down pat, this has been our game plan since 2007.

Classic!

Shouldn't forget the blindfolded pin the tail on the donkey - that's always a good one to get us using the corridor more.

Thanks for the ongoing coverage RB.
It's nice to read training reports and not be told how stupid I am and how I should support another team at some point during the thread.

Many thanks for the reports. All adds to the inevitable positive vibes us tragic 50s and 60s nostalgics gave for the coming season. Surely it will happen again before us old buggers who remember the glory days die out.

GO DEES !!

This is one of those threads that makes up for all those threads that descend into pure pettiness/mediocrity.

Thanks for the reports RB - they've been absolutely sensational and very much appreciated.

Spot on RB.

Thanks guys for the info.

* The session is taking a little nose dive at this point - A few look a little over the camp and starting to mentally switching off. Looking for the finish line - My advice ... get some more Carbs for the brain, it supposedly runs exclusively on glucose.

* Lamumba streaks out of the middle with a nice read - He did some nice things today.

Great work RB. It goes to show how well written and constructed your pieces are that after reading about the need to add nutrition to the brain, the very next line I read as "Lamumba streaks out of the middle with a nice red..."

Garland seems to play better when his confidence is up and that didn't happen last year off no pre-season. Vince has an arrogance about him that I suspect will translate into him playing well anyway.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
