An Austin Bradtke training update would be appreciated Saty

What are his skills like? How tall now? I assume he is fairly athletic given his basketball background. 

Cheers in advance

Another good session

Standouts today in the running sessions apart from the usual suspects were Harry Petty who has put on some size and the Weid

Goodwin, who didn't take the session, Pert and Mahoney in attendance

Austin Bradtke did most of the session same with Guy Walker, neither missed a kick which was encouraging

Couldn't take the smile from Bradtke's face during the session as you can see from the photo, said he is loving it, told him I will ask same question in February

Preuss has the weirdest kicking action I have seen, and have seen some doozies in last 10 years of MFC training, but is accurate passing over all distances

All the basics are there, will post a photo next it has Weid, Gawn, Preuss Petty, Keilty and you can make out Bradtke head in middle so gives idea of Preuss and him

Hunt was the only rehabber, no sign of Lever

No Salem, JKH, Omac or Viney from Monday

Jones was there, of course, he was doing repeat runs in the middle of the oval, like watching a machine, no change of style, speed etc from start to finish

An interesting observation, the repeat running they do is timed, they have to try and maintain same time or thereabouts for each run, Preuss told one of the fitness guys he hadn't done timed runs before and didn't know how to pace himself

Thanks for the insight @Satyriconhome. Anything stand out about Walker or Bradke thus far or just mainly running and basic skill drills? Thanks. 

 

Young Bradtke has been on the club's books for several months now so despite the fact that he wasn't able to train until now, I am somewhat disappointed at the absence of a beard.

Come on Max - teach the kid!

Seriously? I was hoping by now he'd be over whatever it was that hindered him last year. Someone said back, someone said neck, did we ever find out what the problem was?

Ok cheers. Hope he gets back to the main group shortly and has a clear crack at it. Back in form he'd be a big bonus for us.

A couple of other sayings:

  • CASEY: Southport

    The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

  • PREGAME: Sydney

    Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

  • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
