Has anyone done a post re today's training? I can't see anything.

As it was at Casey behind locked gates??? I wonder if Picket Fence has stilts...

Hope he makes it

Looks like the only ones tipping us are Melbourne supporters

Out of curiosity and more so because I am too lazy to research.

But did Garry Lyon and Steven Smith ever cross over where they became teammates at some stage?

Smith ended in 1985 and Garry started 1986

Is this a training thread?

Yes, but training for what?

Any details emerging from that would be great to hear Mr God...if they are shareable.

I was told months ago that discussions had been had with the Feds. Lets just say that the Feds aint the holdup.

I’d be happy if we could have a latter day Leonard Teale (I’m pretty sure that Leonard’s dead ‘n gone) doing a spoken word version of the players’ favourite songs.

How about the Man from Trent Rivers?

There was very quick movement from the MFC, for the ball had been chipped passed around,

that the Kolt from old Waffle had got away.....

Thats being polite. All that was missing was 'We are expecting a big year from Nos 5' and to finish off with 'Now c'mon the Dees'

Max Heath is only 23 and in 2 years time when perhaps max retires he should be in his Prime. Kalani is still a kid.

Dont you just love it.

The Saints asked for an opening round home game at the MCG against a big club. Members turned up in record numbers wearing silly hats.

And they lost....

He appears to be better than expected. Did the saints move him on because they simply needed his salary space?

Well Rowan is 30 and De Koning is 26 so probably surplus to requirements. And if Moose was going to be the next big thing thy may have not gone for De K.

TBH, I wish Tracca well, but not that well

At Caulfield for midweek race meet.

Did you have a collect?

To me Bowey is a small defender who plays tall. Does this help?

He’s a small forward, 181cm , not a medium forward, not that it matters.

Perhaps it does matter. Do we need another small fwd? Especially as our premiership full back has just retired. Or did we pick him because he plays angry? Is our squad too nice?

Curnow to kick a bag?

I remember Norm had an arrangement with Hassa whereby he would yell at him to get the message across to other players. Norm knew he couldnt yell at them directly as it wouldnt work.

Just now, rpfc said:

And our leverage? On this public land that we ‘book’? Rent? Lease?

The difficulty in kicking us out is commensurate to our leverage in encouraging assistance with Caulfield.

It’s tenuous and hopeful at best.

Lease and leases expire

They did. They had a full session out at Casey Fields. They’ll be training at Casey Fields again on Thursday.

This lack of training at Goschs I'm starting to take personally

Have you not read anything I’ve said in this thread? If you wanna believe Sam Edmunds, go right ahead, but maybe don’t bore everyone with comments like the above which are unnecessary and repetitive.

Facts:

He called the club doctor immediately after it happened.

The club doctor attended to him, washed out the two tiny puncture (not much bigger than a pinhead) marks and gave him antibiotics.

There was NEVER an infection

He went back to the club doctor this morning to have it checked. He’s fine.

This morning I said to Fritta’s mum that this report implies Fritta is irresponsible in that he thought it was no biggie and let time go by ‘til an infection set in. She said she likes to think people who read it will know there’s always the possibility that it’s a bunch of bs. Seems she thought wrong.

Thanks Ghosty, I have been worried sick
