Training 2020 Pre Season Training

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Knight always come out with some new do in the pre-season.

Clearly occupies a lot of his attention, which is why his career has faltered.

Needs to focus on getting the ball, not how he looks while he's chasing after it

You're only allowed to dye your hair once you've won a brownlow.

Or in order to get one.

Our senior coach and head of football are setting the right example. No distractions for them.

 

[conVINCEd]

One of the very few good things this club consistently does is not hyping players who are far away.

If they're signalling out Frampton (and this would be a collaborative piece) at this point in time, he's a good shot at bolting if things don't change. Especially as they had an easier option in Keays.

It's not even our fluff piece! Lee Gaskin from afl.com.au wrote it; nothing to do with the club and how we think Frampton (or anyone else) is tracking.

 

[Tex200]

I for one think he’s a big chance,(and hope), he’s ready it’s not like he’s just been drafted

True - he was drafted 5 years ago and played 3 games.

Match play this morning - disappointing that all of Jones, McHenry, Gallucci and McPherson being “managed”

McPherson no surprise I guess

Are you sneaking a look from the Eastern or Western side of Footy Park?

Any other spectators there?

Lol - exposed by EC!!!

No - simply following Lee Gaskins reports.

 

[Dangarman]

A 'niece' bit of play? Is Lee comparing him to my brother's daughter?

Looks like they're doing boxing and fitness work at the same time, so nothing too serious.

Maybe he's just not very good.

ad victoriam previously indicated that he had checked out training and Gibbs was looking good. The difficulty of catching training is that the AFC do not say when they are training (but they did say today was the last day of training before xmas and they would be starting earlier to avoid the heat) so you have to drive down to West Lakes and hope they are training.

I was hopeful that some posters had wandered down to check things out today. I might give it a go when they return in January. The good news is that by our spin doctors giving us no information about who is injured, struggling with fitness etc, they have not ruined my mood over xmas.

Strange isn’t it maybe she’s a Smokey for the AFLW

Unless you are Lee?

 

[Wouldbetackler]

So all the new draftees must be playing?

Lee Gaskin does all the Crows and Port reports for the AFL, he always around and chatting with People, He been more right than wrong in his reports over the years, His Background is Rugby so he one of those reporters who ask questions, rather than guess a lot of time.

"he one of those reporters who ask questions, rather than guess a lot of time"

So he's not a real journo then?

No, he actually a real Journo started with a regional paper then moved up. He not an ex-footballer without any training or a bias anti crow reporter, Bonus is He also likes the Crows.

their brown nosing sensibilities were palpable

Preppy law students/young liberals and far left politics students were the worst for mine.

When I went to uni, sports journalism--journalism of any kind--was not a degree. A post-grad diploma in those days. Perhaps things have changed since every institution under the sun is now a 'university'.

 

[crows dude]

Prboably not the right place but former crows sanfl full forward Tom Pinyon has been signed by Norwood. Kicked 130 goals in the country last season.

 

[ftmch]

Disagree...emphatically.

Which is not to suggest he has no chance of playing R1, but it is simply way too early to make that kind of assessment based upon a short fluff piece.

I think he plays round 1. I don't think we've targetted him for depth - I reckon they have a specific role in the starting 22 in mind for him, and unless he underperforms over the preseason (which it doesn't sound like he is to this point), chances are he'll line up.

JMO though.
