I wonder if his leg brace was modelled on or for Brayshaw arm brace? Maybe that's why he was at the club.

Have requested this for last few years. We need to find out what is wrong with our positioning and techniques as we rarely receive free kicks for over the shoulder or in the back while giving away both.. My quest started when we did not receive free kicks for being tripped while one of our players was disqualified for an attempted trip. We must know how to execute the fundamental actions..

Happy to help . Let me know if your ever coming down Beechworth way. Plenty of available subject matter. A friend has an Airbnb property Lockwood cottage, which is very reasonably priced family accomodation.

Yeah , maybe I can see where Liam gets the talent. I can say no more, look forward to both your contributions. Go Liam Go Dees!

Perhaps there's a truth out there's but not as we know it!

Get him to sneak down to Swans or Giants and take some action shots. With his quality the local press might pick em up, as well as providing us Dlanders with some comparative physique development examples. Also on the trip back some chance to hone skills on some fairly modified environment. A friend who is a local professional photographer has entertained me with some of the best photos of local footy. One shot the best I have ever seen, seven players in the contest (no photoshopping) with really sharp detail, all in focus etc, spectacular. He also shows many shots of birds in flight which are just as difficult to capture as sports shots he says. He has some magnificent shots of the high country devastated after fires. The contrast between the burnt out blackened trees against a scorched earth are really fantastic. He has always said it's a matter of being in the right place at the right time. It's not luck, it's research and always having his camera with him and being alert to the surroundings and the circumstances.

And looks like we could be developing an elite sports photo division. Liam has added to an impressive array of pictures to complement our outstanding reporters. Thanks all

Totally agree D4L. But hoping for top4 and then a totally changed game plan and structure to take the flag.

That is a serious looking brace.Hope he's got enough weight on the other arm to compensate. He might overbalance.

It's also how the coach uses him. He may be the key impact forward, crash and bash, take two opposition defenders out of it, create space . or he may be the main target to kick goals while TMac takes the best defenders and Weid is freed up. With Fritsch also able to play the loose tall forward, Trac Pruess, etcwe have an attractive array of options. We may not play all of them every week so goal output may not be the only or best measure. What will be important is what he does to secure the flag.

Yoghurt????

Hell in 62 whenI had hair it was not short.

Congrats Liam. Some really good shots in there with only a few that look anything like mine. I am really good at getting the vacant ground where the player was or Hiram just in the picture. I tried to consider them works of art but ultimately left the photographing to people like you who can really capture the movement and atmosphere in a single shot. Thanks for sharing.

Every player is different and has different motivational requirements . The club needs to ensure each player is given the appropriate advice positive or negative at the time it is required for their advancement.. it ant easy but it ain't rocket surgery.

I'd like to think I could join the illustrious company as wing man. Running back and forward with no apparent value but an annoyance to some and able to lob a comment as devils advocate . But mainly observing as the talent surrounding me accomplished feats of bewildering esoteric brilliance .Always ready with a supportive gesture to link the seemingly innocuous into a higher realm. But really just wondering where does this disparate group of geniuses live and what attracted them to this field beyond their passion for red and blue. Maybe that's why I'm not even on the bench?

Some great contributions here. AsOD says the collective recall of Dlanders does provide inspiration. I hope the next (and the next) generation are able to do a similar excercise with our multiple premiership list post 2018

Constant Coordinated Rotation has to be the option. Churn. This rotation where selected ff leads out and selectedflanker runs in to that spot, all forwards consequently churn around to a structured position.. This not only means there is separation and forwards do not impede each other but also creates match up issues that can be exploited. It also creates space due to movement and provides anticipatory reaction as forwards know where their teammates will be. Requires discipline in knowing where teamates are and where opposition are. If opposition does not pursue opponent then a clear target is provided.

Thanks RaBr as I was not sure if there was any clear air anywhere. Caution is warranted as while the fires here are predicted to last months it's still early in the training program.

Nothing wrong with this sensible and appropriate action. Alternative fitness maintenance programs will be improved ndertaken I am sure. Just don't gasp in huge volumes of air!

Easy to see how correspondents can be conflicted on this significant issue of world order. We cannot allow this next generation of royals to undermine the rightful roles of the monarchy. Before you know it there will be exposure of the illusion that all those on the public teat are performing non necessary tasks. This ideology was already filtering through to other political arenas. Trump in US, Boris in UK and our own ScoMo who all promised little and delivered it. Fortunately the bush fires have shown the need for governments and supported by the inspirational wishes of Chuck and her Maj the public can return to its state of torpor struggling again to find enough disposable income to maintain the banana industry.

Surely some country sites that are smoke free alternatives. i can't recommend NN Vic (we are generating the smoke still). But the benefits of changing training routines is recognised with the scheduled trip North. Nows the time to add real concern for health generating mutual commitment and respect. Also provide country Dlanders to meet greet and contribute trading reports to relieve our dedicated Goschs watchers.

Wow great work Od especially in adding the games totals. Didn't realise Jeff White had so many games with us. Indeed many of the proportions were unexpected even from Ne involved in the preparation. The wine possibly clouded my considerations and yes surprising to see Crosswell only played 76 with North. His MP act seemed far greater than his 48 with us. I guess his Carlton time was also well publicised.. it has raised even further discussion points I think. Will be happy to get together again and reprise this list. Hope we get some extra names from a larger Dland group. GO DEES

Maybe a chance to look for a country location where smoke is not so prevalent. I don't recommend NE Vic (we are still generating most of it), but surely there are some smoke free zones. Relocation not only gives country members a chance to relieve Dland posters but also shows clubs concerns for players buildingcommittment and a change which may refreshes interest. As they are scheduled to go North some of these factors are already acknowledged.

Training watchers indicated he was training solidly and well. The break may have been a negative if he came back and tried to step up at the same level. Alternatively it could be nothing at all. He is a key player for us and it would be good to get some official advice from the club if for no other reason than to reassure demonland. Although our propensity to exaggerate doom may only be enhanced through an announcement, maybe better to let us all diagnose with no fracking idea. i favour swine flu following Ann announced holiday in China. He's doomed.

I reckon we win the premiership as well
