My wife just asked me why I’m watching a video of a bunch of hunky dudes working out to a generic, slightly eastern-influenced piece of trap music. I must admit that I didn’t have an immediate answer. 

Crap music. If you can even call it music. Just have to be good on a computer. 

Wishing him all the best for his next career move now that footy is finished.

I could not agree more.

I can't speak for other clubs (because I don't have any interest) but our fan engagement is woeful. And i think it is real issue in terms of engaging younger supporters and building a strong supporter base.

The content you suggest is exactly the collateral they should develop. Shareable videos (eg on snapchat, dischord and insta) that are intersting (eg diet, traingin, interests) and build connection. Kids love content. Tv dead and such content is practically free. Great for sponsors too.

A good example was the trade day videos the club posted. Good stuff and so so easy (credit wmwhete it is due).

 Build an awareness of Bedford, swallow, neita etc etc. My 17 year old son knows more about RJ Hampton than any young demon player. If it were not for demonland so would I.

In this day an age it is a complete own goal not to be doing way more in this space.

There’s the end of the experiment.

Melk has a right hamstring issue said he should be running in a few days. Word on KK is that he hasn’t had a solid period of feeling right and they need him to be good for a solid 2 weeks before progressing. Tomlinson said he should be back in the main group on Friday. Oskar has a niggling groin but hopes to join the main group towards the back end of the camp. May just waiting for his stitches to come out (Friday?) before returning to the main group.

I can’t recall hearing or seeing KK training at all. Not good news. 

Looks like Jackson already has more muscle definition than Lever.

Amazing work.         Preuss looks so thin..    good for agility,  just worried he may lose some strength.

Never used his strength last year anyway so can only be a good thing.

I was there early and he was walking laps. Didn’t see him doing anything else before I had to leave.

Put a fork in him he’s done. Unfortunately concussion has destroyed his footy career. 

Wish we had the bulldogs list. Reckon they will win a couple of flags over the next 5 years.

Viney has taken the boots off and is with the rehab group. 

Oh no don’t tell me it’s back.

for a guy who couldn't run for 6 months he looks fit...

Wish I looked that fit after doing no running for 6 months.

Anyone know about how Kade Kolodjasni is going?

Who?

Apparently bulldogs will get the next buddy franklin next year. How do they work out all these zones?

I’m preparing myself for some frustration with Pickett. I’m sure he has potential to do some amazing things but the knock on him was he lacked consistency. 

Blues were BOG. Amazing.

The only consensus is that opinion is divided on picking Jackson.

Raw. Athletic. But footy skills and smarts need to be developed which raises queries and WA origin makes us nervous. Acknowledge JT experience gives us some cautious optimism.
 

Interesting given we all had hoped that after the 2019 disaster that we’d grab a definite top gun youngster.  Suns concession robbed MFC as Anderson was almost unanimous when we had pick 2.   Young and Green other options but all the mail is Jackson at 3.

I’d always prefer someone with footy skills and smarts over pure athleticism. It’s hard to teach footy smarts and skills as opposed to fitness. 

So everything I seem to read is that he’s undersized for a ruckman but as a forward isn’t a great mark or kick. Not sure we should use pick 3.

AVB would have to be the most rehabilitated player in the history of the MFC. 

For sure. Reckon Tingay would be up there too.

Not bad. 

Amazing. I struggle to do 3km in 12mins.

How did Brendan Goddard become a thing..?

 

 

Funny, I was just thinking the same thing.

Hope you are wrong.  He looked pretty skinny in the legs, arms and upper body.  That may help him run but he looks more like a 2-3 year player than a 5/6 year player.

I do too. He has some of the skinniest legs I’ve seen on an AFL player.
