It's not one or the other.

Being able to cover the ground well requires elite condition and fitness, no matter the position. 

Sat-man thinks it's black and white.

The fact of the matter is that Pedo was always carrying condition. It was as clear as day to see and he's probably realised/been told that he needed to work harder and drop weight and improve his ability to cover the ground. And more importantly for him, give himself the best chance to stay on the list going forward.

Simple.

Some blokes do the running that's required during their breaks, others do more. Some eat well enough, others are meticulous with their diet. 

There's an article on the AFL site atm about Hannebery and the fact that he hasn't touched grog in almost five months. That's not a club requirement. He has taken it upon himself to cut it out and he is in the best knick of his life. 

 

 

 

 

Shane Woewoden came from nowhere to what was then known as a Brownlow (now sadly a Downlow thanks Gil and Jobe) by similar dedication and focus.  I will watch him with interest.

The way the playing list is adapting physically and philosophically to a two-way running fast play-on style makes round 1 against the Saints both a salivating prospect and intriguing litmus test. Looking forward to it.

The amount of weight Pedersen has lost looks like he has changed his diet. He looks in the best shape of his career by a mile.

No doubt he will be kicking himself that he didn't do it years ago.

Hopefully bodes well for him and the team overall. Rewatched part of the Hawks Game we won last year this week. He had some really good moments in games but needs it to consistent.

Can take a hanger.

This is the first full preseason Pedo has had at the Dees, albeit coming back from a shoulder reco. It's probably his best chance of cementing the 3rd tall/chop out ruck position 

Probably his last chance, too, given his age and the younger players developing in the queue behind him.

Quite frankly he needs to do something.  The Swans have choked on the big day twice now and Hannebery along with Parker has under-performed on both occasions.

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm
