I'll do my best to give a training report  'live' as I observe. If anyone has any explicit questions about individuals or anything else. Post them up here and I'll do my best to answer.

Cheers

Practicing kick outs, to the boundary with attempts at breaking lines.... Hunt was tackling, so I assume replicating GC?

And they're done. No sweat worked up. Familarisation with the ground, reinforcement of a few strategies/systems. Fin.

There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
