Six6Six - bloody fabulous effort in documenting what happens at training - then uploading it .Really grateful for it.

Great thread - hope we can cumulatively document it. I for one know no-ones nick name - mind I have a few personal ones when they're playing like flogs.

Camp = pathway to success. I remember learning somewhere that correlation does not equal causation. What learnings did they get from it - well if its about having discomfort and getting on with the job at hand, they had better be reflective enough individual to be able to apply it when they're fatigued, when they're anxious, when they're hacked off, when they're 10 goals down, when they're 10 goals up etc etc and still able to execute time and time and time again.

Are the question mark's 'cause it sounds 1970's?

Herald Sun headline is Ex AFL Star - I get they need to pump up the news - but Col? A star? meh...

I like that one- Clint - what about 'Celine'?

Who would've you picked instead WJ?!?

Juddy isn't that bad - he's always come across well - it is however a fine line between being overly sensational every moment of the game and stating the bleeding obvious of what you can optically see...

He's done his job at the Dee's and paid handsomely for it - new chapter for Roos is of zero consequence for where the Dee's are headed...

Gee I love the Training breakdown - its the first pre season for me on this forum - love the dedication from the members - some of us are up country

When it comes to punishment - why do we need to take a punitive stance? Quite frankly I don't think he needs to leadership group or Goodwin etc to tell him to pull his head in - you reckon he doesn't get it already - and that the 'penny' will drop if someone else mentioned it to him?? The reality is, that he either will, or he won't commit to the behaviours to becoming as elite as he can... it will be an ongoing analysis over the seasons on this - and this incident will have SFA to do with it.

Lance was by all (read every) commentators accounts, the smartest player playing the game at the time..

Ahhh, the age old conundrum of wanting a personality of high risk takers when you draft someone - have a Stevie J vibe about this one...

It's lovely how EFC are taking full responsibility. When a club says that 'they're taking responsibility' how does that actually look? By merely stating it is that enough? Can someone please clarify physically what taking responsibility looks like? It reminds me of the time David Warner took responsibility for hitting Joe Root...

Cant have it all Bitter...

Thanks for teeing this one up - not all of it is useful - but gives a good sense overall

I am feeling a little worried about Gus, for those who feel he can improve - what areas do you think he would most...is it his tank?

yes, it is correct SKUIT and McQueen

I'd go as far to put out there the stability of the development staff - is the bedrock of the club, and as Bolton from Carlton would put it - the 'green shoots' become voracious bamboo...

There is so much upside for the young and the older lads- and I think the recruiting (including coaching/ancillary staff) has been phenomenally strategic - no doubt all clubs aim to be strategic - but geez, the development into the boys and the 'kulcha' - it feels so far removed from even 36 months ago.

I feel ANB still has potential - a run of a few games and he could show his wares - and also agree that when given the opportunity aside from Kardinia - he hasn't managed to grab it - a lack of delisting shows me that there is still hope held...not sure why I like him, but I do.

Popping his head out like a toitle...

Is conjecture alright? Or not? Why the intensity of negativity?

Now the 2nd round is gone - dead in the water...

Time to change the thread name methinks - confirmation!!!
