A few comments on Hibberd looking sharp. Relatively nothing on Milkshake?

BA   are you sitting down        NONE  although Hoges  did shape up at one point but changed his mind

How was Hoge's shaping up action Saty? Was his change of mind fluent or stuttered? Do we need Carey at the club perhaps to teach Hogan how to change his mind in a proper fashion?

He seems a bit on the lean side from the photos in my opinion - not that it's worth anything because I wasn't at training.

Why didn't Salem train?

All I took from the photos was that Hibberd and Bugg had been sharing styling tips in the off-season.

Thanks for the reports. I'm currently in Spain so good to get any news. I headed down to the local Plaza de Torro with my camera but there wasn't much action there. I'll be back home around the time the full group return so will head down to training then with my trusty lense.

More to the point was his run up fluent or stutttterred?

And we need Carey (or some other great kick) to help Jesse etc it right.

Coniglio in Barca according to afl.com. Time to get your inner-paparazzo on or at least a quiet recruitment word.

Melksham did what was required of him, he probably shares Buggs body type in my opinion, lean but defined, and not his style,  agree Hibberd does though

Thought my ageing Fitzroy Hipster look today left him for dead

Bugg is still the aerobic running monstet hardly raised a sweat yet was leading his group

As for Hoges, got as far as getting the ball in hand facing the goal about 30 out and 45 deg then changed his mind

There wasn't even any goalkicking at the end perhaps again they were instructed not to

Haha. Just woke up the fiancée laughing at that. Simple, but as usual, DA, well played.

You will notice Hogan giving the cameraman the death stare when he was getting the massage, not a fan of having his pic taken whilst this is happening, I learnt the hard way and got the death stare once

[Biffen 12,947]

Just an observation,

Saty has trimmed his beard.

Milkshake still looks daft even in red and blue.

I think they are under no instruction, but all are lazy and looking to start slow so that their running looks to significantly improve throughout the pre season. Especially Trac

I'd be really impressed if this were true. I don't traditionally think of footballers having the skills to think that far ahead.

Not a question to sound offensive, but have you ever played football? It is one of the most common tactics in local footy to look like you've improved significantly from day 1 of preseason to end of preseason

I'm not at all offended. I haven't played football since I was a schoolboy, which is now over 40 years ago. I take your point, but I would have thought all the technology available to the club would identify the malingerers from the dedicated.

Lols.

You don't really think players within the AFL would be able to 'trick' elite level performance gurus (who have spent years studying what the human body is capable of) into thinking that they've drastically improved their running capabilities by easing their way through earlier sessions, do you?

Like, I mean, You're making a funny joke yeh?

My initial comments were all tongue in cheek, as I carried on with it a bit further. But his response was to me being sarcastic in regards to players being given a program and it's got much more legs than necessary. 

 

I dont think our players would not be under instruction in regards to running at pre season. 

I don't think they could get away with being lazy in the early sessions to improve later in the pre season and look better. 

I didn't think I needed to explain that all those comments had my tongue planted firmly in my cheek

Have been past Gosh's on 3-4 occasions over the break and Maynard was working 1-on-1 with Cross.
