Training 2024 Pre-season training

[Dry Rot]

I mean… the bloke survived two atomic bombs, raised a family, and lived into his 90s. I take this to imply that nothing will be able to stop us in 2024.

Like it, but his 1946 season wasn't much chop.

My favourite time of the year is admiring these thick, solid, tight bodies and fooling myself into thinking that muscle mass will translate into great team performance in the coming season.

Whose girth has you particularly stirred so far, Scrag?

Every player looks like they have out on 10kg of muscle when photographed in the middle of a set!

The only person I recognise is a Caleb Daniel look-alike at the rear. On his left, how did we get Christian Petracca in a Bulldogs jumper? I'm sure that's Will Hayes crouching behind the coach, but isn't he a horse trainer these days!

Top left looks a bit like Sam Power might draft himself at pick 5

Now that Marxism is covered, today's training curriculum is on gender fluidity.

Wtf is that football trying to identify as

 

[dergert]

Yeah, I'm staying out of this one.

When do the boys return to training?

 

[ScragCity]

"Training" started today. But we had to sack our myotherapists to afford all of these new coaches. So the first thing the players are training in is how to give each other sports massage.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

ScragCity last season I became quite concerned about the quality of our tackling. Hoping your insider photographer can shed some light on whether we have any ground-breaking new strategies to address this.

underwent ankle surgery on Monday, after noticing some swelling at pre-season training.

The star midfielder had just returned from some time away in Canada and the U.S, but says the ankle was giving him a few issues and the club felt it was best to get the procedure done as soon as possible.

Bontempelli says he expects to be back up and running for the November 27 beginning of pre-season training.

“I’ll move to ease everyone’s tensions or concerns, it’s just a little ankle clean-up,” he told SEN Breakfast.

“Got through the season and whatnot pretty good and then had my break, started training and noticed a few little signs, a little bit of swelling and it was staying a little bit angry post-session since coming back from my off-season trip.

“So we just decided it was better to act now rather than pushing into the pre-season and then season, going for a little tidy up.

“Should still be well and truly on track to get things going once we’re back on the 27th of November.

“No big concern here, better to act sooner rather than later and get going. Should be (walking) properly by the end of the week.”

Bontempelli will still have a busy November, with the launch of his second children’s book – Little Bont’s Brave Play.

If he's not back training on 27 November on the DOT...

 

[dergert]

Should've left Bont's ankle surgery to round 3 and derail his season like we did with Lobb.

*Tongue planted firmly in cheek.

 

[geoffjennings79]

Did he get some artwork on his ankle while o/s, triggering some sort of infection? This new gf is not a great influence, needs one with a lifelong passion for footy...

Either that or our new medical team already showing their incompetence in preparation for 2024.

(Joking on both counts obviously - I actually blame Bont for causing the issue by being less than professional while o/s. Surprised he hasn't been trying to break wipers off cars in the streets around VUWO tbh.... )

 

[St 07]

Well that's season over tbh but there's always next year (the year after next year)
