Seriously scary.

With all this off-season eulogising and "monster" myth making about the new recruits in particular Brandon Preuss, well before the advent of the real stuff. When will the hype actually meet the  reality or the reality meet the hype?  Seems more than a whiff of bathwater out there post 2018. 

                                                                 6 drops of the essence of terror

                                                                 5 drops of sinister sauce ...

                                                           ... and now for a tincture of tenderness

                                                           because without a touch of tenderness

                                                                 it might deestroy me

                                                                 oops too much!

 

I dunno whether i care how big Preuss is, i want to see him in half a dozen continuous Senior Games first......

True. We had a John Meesen and a James Sellar once. They were monsters of the "Herman Munster" ilk. We want Michael from Halloween.

Hope we sent our players there with the motivation of cozying up to the VIC players playing outter state.

Milton the Monster? 

To answer the question re rules, the players have instruction of every facet, fitness, diet, health etc etc

Any extra has been cleared with the club

They all have individually tailored programs

Tommy Mac has been 'instructed' whenever he can to walk barefoot, as it strengthens the foot and will help his toe

R U suggesting we nickname Preusst...  as Milton ??? 

 

...  could this be Todd Viney  &  Jason Taylor...  doing their very best work ?

I think it has a ring to it...  'milton'   Preusst.   ?

You know,  I'd settle for a fiery Murray Weideman type.

@Scoop Junior

Only an observation from Saturday’s session in which training was light and the players spent the session largely in positional groups, Fritsch was mainly in drills that consisted of small defenders. Spent some time with Salem, Jetta and Hunt working on basic defensive techniques, such as spoiling and killing the contest quickly.

As I said, this only from what I observed on Saturday, the regulars might be able to provide more from pre- Christmas sessions in regards to Fritsch.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

  • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
