Training Saints preseason 2026

[The Jack]

Spoke to a Collingwood supporting mate who was at the hanger on Sunday as his daughter is seeing a Bombers reserves player. He said TT was clearly BOG and was really impressed with him. Didn’t even know his name.

 

[Dr Spaceman]

I forgot he also provided the Bunnings step ladder

Is your mate quaking in his boots about Sunday?

First half Trav destroyed the Essendon midfield including Tstasas.

There is a half back/midfield role going in the 1s

I have this week off. What would be the best day to get to training

 

[Rogue Warrior]

God it’d be nice to get to a point where we had too many quality mids and had to play them on the flanks

Main training should be Friday

Na. He's cocky like the rest of them. Would be great if we could knock them off.

It's up to him. Many a player is too good for VFL but not quite there for AFL.

Look I saw have the game, Trav was prominent and BoG in the first half. That is promising, however he needs to work on his game and transfer VFL to AFL form.

We sort of are now with Hall, Windy and Sinclair. Good times.

Max back to a TBC also thought it was a calf?

I think Liam Henry’s going to be (an injury) bust sadly.
What was his injury history before he came to us?

Tgft I have high hopes.

The club needs to start putting up information on our VFL side

Would be very surprised if Henry makes it at this point with those hammies. Damn shame.

 

[FQFjt]

I have it on impeccable authority that Henry's training standards are just no where near the level required, so I am not surprised his body is failing him. Doubt his contract will be renewed unless things change drastically.

You mean you heard someone's opinion. Pretty different from having it on impeccable authority.

Not easy living up to everyone's standards when you've been injured, or in rehab, or coming off rehab the whole time. Not physically easy, mentally easy, nor dealing with other people's opinions. As you can tell I feel pretty sorry for the guy, and don't think he needs kicking while he's down.

Huh? How do you know where I heard it from?

I thought TBC stood for ‘That Bloody Calf’

I’m sure I read something on here a while back that suggested he had the same issues at West Coast. No idea if true of course.

With respect. It’s a high end hammy.

Similar to Rooeys.

Not sure training standards matter as they are polar opposite

He never played for WCE.

Are you thinking of Ryan?

Sorry, that is fallacious. Very good trainers get injured ergo training standards have nothing to do with injury?

Again, what I am saying is true. If I was at liberty to tell you the person who told me this, you wouldn't doubt it.
