Chin looks like he’s getting ready for preseason on Devils Island.

CRACK CRACK oh look now he’s 7 ft 3 why didn’t we do that earlier?!

That is just not how the human body works.

I am here at Caulfield but cannot find the training ground. Lots of horse manure but not much else. Am I at the right spot? 

Any snakes? Asking for a friend.

The kicking drills ran by Choco were quite extensively and the first after the warm-up.

15 meters apart and in pairs they kick right and left foot. Then variations occur. Spin (360°) to the left, kick, spin again to the right, kick, place the ball on the ground, pick up and kick, place the ball behind, spin and kick. Repeat at 30 meters. At one stage they included two balls, but only one kicking over the top as the other ball is handballed flat. 

The next kicking drill was more complicated. They had six starting positions. Three on two lines. The middle group in bibs, attempted to intercept the passes, by those in the outside lines. The outside lines would pass to the other line, down the line, or diagonal. I think they had a system going so it wasn't haphazard. It created a variety of kicks.

Choco empathises that he wants the ball to spin well, and for sharp, direct actions. I think he will create even more drills with a variety of difficulty and skills.

Thanks for that.

I once phoned up said spiritual leader of Tibet and he sent me a large goat with a long neck.

Turns out I'd called "Dial-A-Llama" by mistake.

First rate this and combined with the Norm McDonald bored / board reference has my day off to a positive start.

Strange, Ive never heard of playing at Casey referred to as Devils Island!

Looking at the photos of Taj Woewodin,  the kid is an absolute pro!

He's come back looking absolutely ripped and fit as a fiddle. You simply don't do that at sitting on your [censored] doing nothing in the off season.

Really want to see him take his game to another level next year as a two way running midfielder. He's incredibly disciplined so I can't see why he can't play the role that James Jordon did for Sydney this year.

I can't wait to see what he brings next year.  I've been on the Taj Woewodin fan club for a while now.

If he doesn't make it as a midfielder, do you think he could make it as a lock down small defender?


When TMac, Viney, Fritsch, Campbell, Salem, Petty, Hore & Bowey can turn up for the 1-4 year first session, it would have been a good sign to see McAdam, Billings, and Fullarton do likewise, and equally demonstrate their committment to the team and 2025.

It's been said before that good coaches understand the skills of the game and gameplans. Great coaches, on the other hand, also understand players. While I appreciate you probably meant to say "emphasises", it's a handy reminder that for our team to succeed, we need our coaches to empathise with the players.

kid is built like a brick outhouse, but he needs to improve his disposal significantly to make it imo

No I personally don't think he can.

He's a natural midfielder for me who can rotate up forward as well.

Great to see Jeffo a lot bigger and stronger, I have a good feeling about him going forward. He has a lot of natural ability and he just needs to get his body right.

I feel like he needs a few chiropractic adjustments to straighten his back up, it doesn't look right. Surely the club is suggesting he see a medical professional to help his posture because no doubt it would benefit his footy. It's definitely something you can reverse with the proper treatment.

A hunch back didn’t seem to hurt one Gary Ablett Snr when he was destroying teams. Even Josh Kennedy had a hunched over posture. As long as he marks and kicks goals, he can stand on his head for all I care.

It’s more to do with a lack of confidence.

Yes

Though Choco does need a bit more empathy, in my opinion. He can be quite abrupt and self indulgent. As a qualifier, he loves giving his time and insights to anyone.

McVee wanted to put on weight.  Anything obvious?

 Judd appears about the same size as last season.

Jeffo looks big.

Kentfield even bigger.

I hope these two boys can make it and then our key forward positions will be well covered.

I think Verrall will make it as a forward/ruck backup too, allowing JVR to hone his forward craft and stop rucking.

If we are bullish on the above, there is no way we take a key forward at 9.

I was sent a video of him running just yesterday.

I remember Greg Parke having a similar posture, never hurt his marking, he even used to emphasise it by crouching before he sprang, it was a thing of beauty

  • 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.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
