November 11, 2025Nov 11 Just letting folks know that immediately following the men’s session this morning the W will be running out for a session. Their session goes from 10:30 - 12:30. It would be great to see spectators hang around for it, even part of it.I understand not everyone has the luxury of working around training sessions as I do, but the girls are currently in a finals campaign and need more love and support than ever. So, if you can, please stay around for the W.

November 12, 2025Nov 12 Had the good fortune to have a chat with Kingy today. He wandered over to the boundary line when he finished putting out the cones for the next activity. My first impressions were that he was personable, straightforward and very tall. He said that training wouldn’t be too intensive in the first few sessions, as the full list joined the group. I mentioned that it was good to see Brodie and AMW progressing so well. He said Brodie was busting to join the main group and it was a battle to hold AMW back until Christmas. I asked him what his first impressions of the training group were. He said he was impressed with the overall fitness. He singled out the Roo, saying he had lost kilos but gained strength. We both agreed that ‘the current # 4’ (Harvey) was set to take the next step. He said that Jai Culley was in the best three on the track on Monday. A few other enthusiastic observers joined in the conversation. He also agreed that Windsor was a standout in the first session. One notable comment he made was about putting up the ‘team’ for round 1 for the players... there were no names on the list!
November 12, 2025Nov 12 I arrived at the end of mens training. Very impressed that both teams came together. Ladies team was training well. I had the great pleasure of talking to my great friend the wonderful Ghostwriter. Ghosty tells me that the men trained at great intensity. Also there were no soccer balls at training. I am very pleased that they are practising with afl balls, and not soccer balls. New coach is bringing high standards to training.
November 12, 2025Nov 12 Training today was more laid-back than Monday. More about patterns for quick transfer than intense pressure on the ball-carrier. They did do a two-lap time trial. Sharpie was once again the standout in his group, with Tholstrup not too far behind. I noticed that Berry was content to bring up the rear, as he manages his transfer to the elite level.
