Training and Trackwatching

[Demon Disciple 12,119]

Who’s the fella at Trac’s feet? Stick him on the opposite wing to Langers………………he looks like he’d love chasing the ball

Another update from Insta... BroDEE, Spargs, TMac and maybe Fritta (?) Hit Gosch's at quarter to 8.  Not a bad effort for the final day of 2022!

Anyone have the official return to training date?

My guess is for Wednesday, I'll drop by, and hope a morning run is on at Gosch's. 

Nothing on the training page from the MFC site.

Are you sure it's him?

He was kicking towards the left wing apparently so we can be pretty sure

Any further updates? I’m thinking of going and want to take the kids. Don’t think I can handle turning up to an empty Gosch’s paddock and then having to deal with 3 kids under 8

Bit of a gamble, with having to disappoint the kids.

I will post tomorrow morning just before 9.30am if they are out on Gosch's. 

They could be at Casey or may delay their start of the 2023 campaign till Friday or next week.

The channel 7 report stated they'll return to training next week

No team training!

One demon out on Gosch's at the moment.

Mr.May, doing sprints with intervals.

Melbourne Storm are in full force, on the oval next to AAMI.

Brayshaw has just arrived.

Do you live at Gosch’s paddock?

Under a tree by any chance?

Or just within binocular distance?

You are a star on your training reports, greatly appreciated.

Thanks again Kev. Only Bayley and Christian were training. They were fantastic with my boys having a kick to kick with them. Had a nice chat about the round ball game with Christian who is a mad Arsenal fan.

I reckon it was Salem, because today's Petracca's birthday and I'd reckon he's out celebrating.

Perhaps they are out at Casey, or the volunteer was wrong.

I'll have a wonder down to Gosch's, Monday.

[Stiff Arm 4,419]

Obviously they train over the summer break, each player has an extensive list of training targets they must complete

Reckon it’s a good thing that they have plenty of time off between seasons. Reckon a lot of the guys spent most of last off-season fully focussed on the responsibility and burden of being reigning premiers.

Come back fresh physically, but mentally too. Our intensity in 2022 was nowhere near the sustained levels that it was in 2021.
