Line drills have finished for now and it’s in to some repeat sprints 

the new players split from the main group, a couple of academy kids joining in, both solid sized lads 

Bedford and Chandler have gone hat free. Sparrow the backwards visor. Jordon the regular visor. The rest with the white caps, Bradkte the only one going backwards .

From the main group Spargo, Fritsch, Wagner, Hibberd and JoelSmith are backwards cap guys

DS, you are setting a whole new training report genre.

Originality par excellence. Its a game changer. 

Going to be very difficult for others to follow. 

Excellent reporting as per usual @DeeSpencer. 

Were the rehab group just running laps? Were any of them doing ball work (of the non contact variety obviously)?

I am so pumped for next season i can barely contain myself.

Thanks to everyone who posts a Pic, Prognostication, Projection or Pisstake.

Im busy formulating my 2019 prediction to win back the crown from @Skuit , who we all know got lucky last year to win the title.

Any information posted in the training thread makes my job easier.

The rehab group:

Viney, Lever, Vanders, Tracc, Hannan, Hore, Baker, Melk, Harmes, Bull, Stretch, Hunt, Jetta, Oscar, Brayshaw, Clarry 

 

So.... like half of our best 22....

In fairness most of those guys are recovering from post season surgeries. Clarry had both shoulders worked on. At least they're all running and keeping their fitness base up.

Jeff Garlett with a new "do" - hope it presages a return to form.

I think I saw all but Lever, Vanders, Oscar do ball work. 

Melk and Hore who seem teamed up, as well as Hunt did kick to kick in a triangle.

Others with some kick to kick and handball stuff.

 

I am interested to know how they will train for the 6:6:6.  (I know the devil is in the detail, but it seems like on name alone, this system should suit the Demons?)

I would be keen to hear if we are doing specific drills for this, or if this will come much later just before JLT??

I was idly watching the History of the Eagles the other night when Glenn Frey said we are the best band in the world but need to get Joe Walsh to join to give us more balls and we will be AWESOME. I thought to myself "Steven May...".

So that's how much they think I am getting in the next contract!

Tmac appears to have put on size. Has his right elbow strapped up. Did he have an issue with this during the season?

Probably strained lifting his wallet Mr. Shadow.
