Training 2019 Pre-Season

[Waussie]

You're right. We galvanise. It's the time to stand up and fight!

Brad Scott - first day back:
I don't know what to say really.
A few months
to the biggest battle of our professional lives
all comes down to today.
Either
we heal
as a team
or we are going to crumble.
Inch by inch
play by play
till we're finished.
We are in hell right now, gentlemen
believe me
and
we can stay here
and get the s**t kicked out of us
or
we can fight our way
back into the light.
We can climb out of hell.
One inch, at a time.

Now I can't do it for you.
I'm too old.
I look around and I see these young faces
and I think of all the potential this team has.
I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror.
We are winners...but we haven't delivered for too long.
And that doesn't sit well with me, and it shouldn't with you either.

You know when you get old in life
things get taken from you.
That's, that's part of life.
But,
you only learn that when you start losing stuff.
You find out that life is just a game of inches.
So is football.
Because in either game
life or football
the margin for error is so small.
I mean
one half step too late or to early
you don't quite make it.
One half second too slow or too fast
and you don't quite catch it.
The inches we need are everywhere around us.
They are in ever break of the game
every minute, every second.

On this team, we fight for that inch
On this team, we tear ourselves, and everyone around us
to pieces for that inch.
We CLAW with our fingernails for that inch.
Cause we know
when we add up all those inches
that's going to make the ******* difference
between WINNING and LOSING
between a PREMIERSHIP and NOTHING.

I'll tell you this
in any fight
it is the guy who is willing to put his body on the line
who is going to win that inch.
And I know
if we are going to win anything
it is because, we are still willing to fight for that inch
because that is what WINNING A PREMIERSHIP IS.
The six inches in front of your face.

Now I can't make you do it.
You gotta look at the guy next to you.
Look into his eyes.
Now I think you are going to see a guy who will go that inch with you.
You are going to see a guy
who will sacrifice himself for this team
because he knows when it comes down to it,
you are gonna do the same thing for him.
You're doing it for yourselves and your teammates.
You're doing it for Majak.
You're doing it for the jumper you're wearing now and what it represents.
You're doing it for the members that support you through thick and thin.
You're doing it for all those great minds on the big footy North board.
You're doing it because there is no greater feeling than celebrating a win (not too much celebrating Luke).

That's a team, gentlemen
and either we heal now, as a team,
or we will lose as individuals.
That's football guys.
That's all it is.
Now, whattaya gonna do?

BS copy and pasting as we speak.

[Firestarter]

Why am I looking at Dr Chris Brown?

 

[the big lebowski]

Yes. We should be copying Fremantle.

Well Hawthorn were obviously at training today as well. They must have also started 2 weeks after us in theory.

Players have mandatory time off from official club stuff.

Exactly. It's not like they are slacking off. They are professionals and would be doing their own independent/group training (see Joel and Will).

A lot has to go right for us to finish Top 4.

Rhyce Shaw also super impressed with Jasper Pittard

Pittard has all the tools to be an A grade HB.

I dare say it would rewrite medical history.

Yeah but let's be honest, what do you know?

The club is extremely impressed with Rhyce Shaw. Brilliant bloke, hard worker, immense football IQ. A future star in coaching circles.

 

[year of the roo]

I'm just generally impressed.

 

[sbdan]

I'm just generally impressed.

I always am at this time of year

Most teams are in the same boat I’d imagine.

 

[Jindrrk]

Hasn't been many videos this offseason?

I was thinking maybe North hasn't been showing up on my YT feed and seems there has been less content than previous year/s? I could be wrong. I am all over the place.

Related to the "holidays until 14th" notice is my guess.

Top 4 has to be the expectation.

 

[Jindrrk]

Yeh but even in preseason before Xmas its been a bit lacklustre. Unless I have missed it.

I get a little lost in Dec/Jan so maybe it has been the same as previous year/s. I just remembered there being more content.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Top 4 has to be the expectation.

3 more wins than 2018. Sydney, Bulldogs & Adelaide go the other way. That's all it takes.

Or that GC game being moved.

 

[Passmore]

We had Richmond by the nuts too.

A deeper midfield should take us a long way to reversing those results.
