I think the list of players who did not make the trip will be the most interesting.

IMO if you ain't on this trip your chances of playing in the early part of 2016 must be slim.

Pardon me interrupting with some discussion about the Melbourne Football Club but it's a fact that the team has arrived on the Sunshine Coast and were working hard today.

Here's proof.

Geez Maxy looks impressive with that beard! Hope it's a big year for him!

An 8 day camp with the coaches and support staff, surely all the players will be up there? If Petracca is in his moonboot I think everyone else should be. But I do agree mostly with the idea that if you aren't doing a fair bit of the training at the camp then your chances of playing early are reduced. 

On the injury front I'll be keen to know if Ben Newton is out doing any running because from the one photo of him boxing on the club twitter he looks super lean and fit.

Damn, Big Max is a beast isn't he?  I'm impressed with how cut vandenBerg  is looking too, he's really dropped that bit of weight he was carrying last year.

A much cooler morning than last year. Already about 100 here. Noticed Petracca's boot and Tyson without any tape on legs for a change! More to come...

[waynewussell 6,571]

Just heard assistant coach speaking to Hogan, "Take it easy for a while, I think I'll pull you out of the handball stuff and take you over on the back oval"?

Thanks for the updates guys. I was hoping to pop up there this morning from Brisbane, however the kids and wife stole the cars! Keep it going.

Big tackle on Watts from Gawn in handball drill and Watts didn't appreciate it... came back aggressively. stretch & Kent stood out

Hard tackle on Terlich by Salem in handball drill. Viney, Bugg, Skip, Smith also impressive

Is Watts bringing the ball out or receiving?

Please keep up the good work waynewussell.

I only wish I had the time to get up to the Coast myself but I only just got back from an overseas trip and I have to show my face around work.

Look forward to your impressions on the new recruits.

[waynewussell 6,571]

Been working hard for over an hour now. Crowd built up to over 200 now. A few of the hardest trainers looking stuffed! Jones tackled Hunt and slung him to the ground before to give him a taste of what it is like with the big boys!

[waynewussell 6,571]

Dawes and Frost have joined one of the main groups now, still look a bit proppy

[waynewussell 6,571]

Half ground 9 v 9 now. Gawn to Kent to Garlett for a goal! Great run & carry by Brayshaw. Ben Kennedy doing well.

[Wadda We Sing 10,685]

Hard to even recognize this team from the one a few years back when Roos took over....

[waynewussell 6,571]

Great run from behind on VandenBurg by Oliver. Weideman playing deep forward v McDonald boys. Pederson good in ruck and play on. Salem kicks long, Weideman flies high, crumb to Kent goal square, off ground GOAL!!!!!
