Who will be the first to post pictures of the  new draftees?

Won't be me, working on Monday, saving till Wednesday when Bennell and Brown will also be there


Just a note on training

They have a grappling/wrestling/tackling coach, he used to appear maybe one session a week if that

He is there every session at the moment, obviously another area of weakness they have identified

 

This bloke is hopefully only a week away from joining in some main group drills, same with Petty,  who is a seriously sized human being now   next photo

Just an interesting fact I learnt yesterday

The AFL now has 1400 yes 1400 accredited 'journalists' on its books

It has long been known within us media types that AFL journalists outnumber all other journalist types in Oz.  It’s an indictment in the media landscape.  Proper investigative journalism is thwarted by big media to allow the powers that be escape accountability.

so 2 journos for every listed player (18 x 44 = 792).......no wonder media is overflowing with carp

They hand out 1400 media passes so they can revoke them if they don't like the coverage.

But the amount of full time journos covering the game is probably declining. Channel 7 and AFL media give it a fair go, but otherwise I'm sure the age and the HS don't cover the game like they used to.

Houses still standing in the background of that last pic. Obviously not training hard enough.

They are Collingwood houses..... ours have already been converted to parkland to train on.

I think there's no coincidence that our strong run at the end of 18 started around the time AVB got going.

I'd like to see Dusty try the "don't argue" on AVB on ANZAC Eve.

Did you notice if Petty was training with the forwards or backs mate?

To cover the play of 720 players, almost  2 " journalists" ( I use that term loosely ) for every player.

Do they pay a fee to be accredited ? Is the only reason I could see for having that many.

He is in rehab at the moment, supposedly out of there in 1 or 2 weeks

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
