Maroochydore training camp

[chook fowler 19,694]

Good to see the list looking ripped and Happy. May have something to look forward to in 2018.

Going by the photos on the mfc site hogan is lean and in fantastic shape. His body shape looks more like that of a mid than power forward, which fits with comments he might play more as a mud this year. Scary thought for opposition mids.

Depending on which corner you are in, either Tom will kick 100 this year, or Oscar will have 100 kicked on him.

Man that video is just typical of what happens to oscar Mc in every one-on-one contest in the backline... zzz outbodied and outpositioned! All the talk about him getting bigger.. not sure how much that is helping at the moment

[DeeSpencer 26,301]

Just as concerned by Tom going one hand and getting under the ball as I am with Oscar still being a pushover.

Oh well, I did enjoy Nev's trip.

Like that time a player took a mark on him??? Yep, pretty damning stuff.

From burgos day 2 diary:

Simon Goodwin watches over training with eye-eagle intent, and gives strong reinforcement – positively and in an educational manner.

“Great power,” he says with genuine excitement of Oscar McDonald’s play.

It's like the Yeti monster though, difficult to capture on camera....

My favourite sort of intent is eye-eagle.

Particularly if the camera has a confirmation bias lens attached......

It’s right up there with eye-spy intent

So, in spite of assorted harrumphs are any of our banana bending cousins heading to the Open Session today?...anyone???

[Whispering_Jack 31,144]

After an off season spent mainly overseas, I’m finding it a bit hard to get back into the swing of things football-wise but I have a feeling that today marks the turning point with the club’s Queensland Open Training Session which starts at 9.00am (AEST) at the Maroochydore Multisports Complex in Fishermans Road, Maroochydore.

So far, I’ve been reading things about player bonding and cooking, basketball games at training, haircuts, how ripped the players are looking, who’s injured etc. but I’m hoping our Demonland correspondents up north step up to the plate today with some ripping reports about the actual footy.

Go to it folks!

You forgot the specifics from the MFC site like Harley and Oscar making a wonderful salad or Burgs' horrendous puns like: Bailey making a strong Fritsch of it, or Alex nibbles away at leadership!

Wet day in Brisvegas. Nit sure Maroochydore will be any better. It'll be beautiful tomorrow morning though. Maybe they could re-schedule. ?

[Ethan Tremblay 31,243]

Looking forward to reading reports from our Queensland supporters in relation to the much anticipated open day. Don’t act like you’re not going because you all of a sudden have jobs.

Solves that then. My assumption was based on an Instagram post that must have been of a photo from before leaving to the Sunny Coast.

I would rather Hogan be a scary thought for opposition defenders than midfielders.

Roaming CHF is his go and I think this year he'll prove why he's been so highly rated. Combine that with TMac leading out from the goalsquare and Garlett and Petracca and our forward line looks like a strength for the first time since Neitz retired.
