Mega Thread Official Swans Pre Season "Training The House Down" Discussion Thread

[mtooler]

"Experienced trio Jarrad McVeigh, Josh Kennedy and Kurt Tippett joined in eight days ahead of schedule in a bid to support the younger boys and get a jump on the rest of the senior squad."

I thought to create a preseason training ad discussion thread, opinion, analysis and media. I loved seeing that Kurt Tippett has decided to train 8 days earlier than required, says something about the bloke. That Mcveigh was there also says something which is encouraging as well.

He officially became a Blood in this year's final series and loving the commitment from all the guys who started back early

 

[Tedeski]

He's wasting his time because our poor recruiting over the last 10 years won't allow him to be part of p'ship success anytime soon.

But it's the thought that counts.

Did someone piss in your corn flakes mate?

No!
I squeeze lemon juice on everything now to take the smirk off my face.
It puts me in the right frame of mind to post on here.

I see the club is still loving their slow mo camera for the traininh snippets

I laughed, but maybe it's not the best idea to re-open that particular shitfight on the board.

10 years of poor recruiting.. Apart from a couple of recent GFs

 

[J_Moore]

Jarrad McVeigh to join them.

 

[Superstar swan]

Cue the media frenzy at training tommorrow

Personally like that Sinclair started training early. After they played in the GF, I reckon the swans would have offered the same comeback time as the west coast eagles would have had (ie. today), shows good determination from the bloke on top of moving!!

Sinclair has determination in spades. As the year goes on, more and more people will be happy with that trade

 

[McRobie]

So who's "training the house down?" Dean Towers an early contender.

 

[RainMachine]

Heard McVeigh started early because he was getting a little nervous of O'Riordan's progress

that was my thinking too tbh

Haha. I love it.

Laidler(?) out for the year with a missing leg?

Would still get the "test" diagnosis

4-6 for a missing leg.

Holy crap is Gaz a genuine ginger or what

I am white as myself being a good Welsh coal miners son but he is incandescent

Aren't the welsh renowned as being rather dark skinned? As opposed to the English, scots and Irish.

Being coal miners, that'd be white at the start of the day; black at the end of the day.

 

[replicant]

Thought it was a good sign that Hiscox, Robinson, BJ, Towers and Cunningham made up 5 of the top 6 in the 3k time trial. Seems like the fringe players are working hard in the off season

 

[Ticky009]

Can imagine our poor Irish recruit struggling through yesterdays heat.

 

[Troystenvic]

Is O'Riordan looking like he is going to be a superstar pointer?

Hiscox could of come back the most unfit he has ever been and still blitzed the field. He is a runner. Just needs some footy smarts.
