Ok, so I went for a look. I can rarely make training (maybe twice a Year) so not sure how much value my observations are. Some quick observations: - seemed to be far more fluent in moving th

That's not fact all 3 where best 22 in 2018, playing all the finals, so fact does not back up your statement.

Interesting to read Preuss was the heaviest player in the league last year. I know he looks slimmer, but does he appear to be moving better? Does anyone think his new rig will allow him to be more mobile and find a role?

You’d think it’d be easier to move better when you weigh 10kg less

May also looking at arms and physique.

At least half a dozen players have made changes to weight on both scales 

UP Weid Petty Bedford Spargo prob a couple of others inc 2018 recruits.

DOWN  Pruess Trac May  Hibberd Perhaps Kozzie could lose a 3/4 kilos also.

While this has no guarantees on performance I believe all those modifications are positive to our cause in 2020.

Time will tell.

Well that doesn't answer the question at all. Thanks 

He is looking more at ease with all the running at each session, amazed me the other day when doing a run around the oval, last year, started rocking side to side early on, this year cruising around

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
