View Full Version : training??
Hi, just thought i'd start a new thread seeings nothing much is happening around here at the Magpies board. There isn't alot of coverage in the off-season so i was just wondering if anyone knew how the team has been training etc.? I'm really keen to find out how Cole and Cummings are training and was wondering if anyone here had been down and seen them train and/or knew how they've been going lately?
Annabelle at Hotrod's board does many great training reports and there are often reports from the odd non-regular training attendee.

From what Annabelle has said Cummings is very lean and has bonded with the group well. I think he is a walk up start for full-forward and will kick a plenty of goals barring injury.
Cole is restricted to light ball-work as a result of his elbow reconstruction, but is running plenty to build up his endurance. I reckon he won't be thrown in the deep end too early, but from all reports his skills and pace are good enough for him to play seniors when fit.
From what I understand, guys that are extremely fit this year are Carl Steinfort, Brodie Holland and Nathan Buckley. Chris Tarrant has reportedly bulked up a heap. Chipper and Burnsy are training full-throttle!
I would like for Pebbles to get over his pubitus and Heath Scotland to get over whatever niggly injury he has at the moment and get into our midfield rotation.
Things are looking good!
Thanks for that. Can't wait for the start of the season!!!
