Training 2019 preseason discussion

[Demon 16]

Wouldn't let it happen yet had friend who was an expert in a wheelchairs have a look to assess value.

I think that was the joke.

Pretty sad though. So glad I got out of my party years without a bad habit.

It was so much fun..

[Dark Avenger]

oh first part was a joke from that dickhead on pawn stars or whatever its called

Whoosh.
Must start watching more reality television. Although from what I've seen it's about as real as the plots from neighbours.

[Toump Ass]

Yeah me too. Only habit I still have from my party days is days partying.

I'm only 40 though, hopefully still a decade or two before I hang up the glowsticks

just funny how never seen it while he was at melbourne yet every single weekend he has been buckled at something since going back to freo besides when he went home. bloke just went home to get ****** up and get paid. i never really rated him so onfield and off the campaigner has the wrong mentality of what it takes to reach the top. we won that trade its laughable how ******s were crying over it

I dont mean this in any disrespect after the events of last month, but there could be a few similarities between Hogan and Col Sylvia.
Both Could be anything with there immense talent, but just love getting loose off the field too often (mind you they are the only parallels I'm drawing between Hogan and Col)
harry000 can confirm?

 

[Simon_Says]

a few of my mates see him out at everything they go to im not into drugs n festivals but they love that life obviously Hogan does as well. then his story on insta has him at different 1s then theres photo on melbourne demons uncensored facebook page buckled on the floor. yeah club would know a ****load more than we would know.

where do i find said page?

I have partied with him.. mid season when he was supposed to be out injured. Definitely gets loose haha.

How come everybody else knows famous (ish) athletes and gets to party with them? I don’t know anyone. Though Ricky Nixon sort of crashed a group thing at a pub once that I organised (I didn’t organise Ricky - he just sort of joined in because he’s that type of sad case).

I did once play pool in Hobart with Shoaib Akhtar and some other lesser known Pakistani players. He won. They also drank more than one would expect of muslims.

I dont actually know him, he was just off his head so any old peasant was fine for him to hang out with at the time haha

Sylvia never produced consistently good footy close to what Hogan has managed to date. If the rumours about Hogan being on the pills every weekend are true, and I have no clue if they are, then he definitely fits more into the Dane Swan 'work hard, play hard' mould of footballer. Having said that, one step up from Swanny was Ben Cousins - so its all fun and games until it gets outta hand

Yep. Hogan might love the nightlife but have never heard anything about him being lazy on the track, and his excellent fitness has always been a weapon.

 

[stretcharmstrong]

Yep. Hogan might love the nightlife but he gots to boogie.

Just one minor amendment

Legend says he needs a certain song...

Am i the only one here that sees similarities between Petrecca and Ben Cousins?
At least early in his career as a forward, before he became a permanent midfielder

Yes. Cousins was a slim hard running ball winning endurance machine.

Trac is a powerful, impact player who is strong overhead.

If only Trac would improve his tank

 

[saj_21]

He has, but he will never be a running machine like ANB. Just like you won’t see ANB man handling opponents one on one in marking contests like trac can.

Unfortunately, I don't think we're going to see a big improvement of his engine this season, given he's coming off of surgery, and I think isn't rejoining main training until resumption of training.

 

[booshboy]

when do we start back at training?

Unfortunately I see very little similarity between the two.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Any news on Viney's foot? I feel our premiership aspirations are heavily weighted with how fit Viney is next season..

 

[Proper Gander]

when do we start back at training?

Monday I think - or at least that’s when the public welcome training begins in Melbourne. Can’t be long before they go on camp though, since that has to coincide with the Tennis which boots everyone out of the facilities

I saw something that suggested that they're back training this Saturday ... But that might just be a time trial somewhere before getting back to actual training Monday ...

I got an email the other day to say that the open session on the Sunny Coast is on Saturday 2nd Feb, so I'd say they'll be up here from the 28th.
