Training 2026 Training Reports

[gokangas]

Anyone at training today? Mainly curious to see if there's any friday match sim ahead of a Sunday game. Sometimes Friday is treated as a 'captains run' light session when we have a Sunday game.

Where the hell are you? You have a duty to perform for us BF followers. Another hit to your google review.

Sorry - my daughter got better and isn't off sick today, so I actually have to work. Rude, I know!

Tasmania Devils young gun Nathaniel Sulzberger “isn’t putting a time limit” on his desire to crack the AFL, but believes the unity the team has prioritised over summer will give players the best chance to break into the big time.
Many experts felt Sulzberger, a midfielder who has spent time on the wing in pre-season, wouldn’t have looked out of place as a mid-season draft pick-up last year.

The 19-year-old North Hobart product played 11 VFL games with North Melbourne last year, but said the Devils’ pre-season has been a tougher challenge.

A big number of Devils players haven’t played at VFL level before, and Sulzberger said the taxing pre-season is designed to ensure they’re ready to match more experienced teams.

“It’s very similar training wise and drill wise, similar drills as it was at North (Melbourne) but much, much higher intensity,” he said.

“I think it’s the hardest pre season I’ve done in my life, some of the sessions were pretty gruelling. The intensity was definitely much higher, the running load was higher than it was at North.

No surprises there

Close your eyes and ears Tom Blamire. Please.

Clarko - “listen fellas, we know the drill. Give it to Caleb at every opportunity. And Lmac, you got to cover your guy and Caleb’s guy too.”

Blamires (fingers in ears) - “LAH, LAH, LAH, LAH…”

Fos gonna be a unit. Already looks like he just has that thick trunk that will power through people and contests.

Daniel should be the 7th defender that plays high.

I don't want any of our players playing while high.

Cheers Maddie, great photos as usual. (We're spoiled.)

Couple of things stood out.

1/ JK is a unit. Built like a brick shithouse.

2/ Even tho he probably gets the handball away, Duurs still holds the tackle on PC... and the ball is loose at that instant, could even be a free for incorrect disposal. Impressive for a skinny kid.

That photo is fantastic too. They're all excellent (as usual) but that pic is elite.

I like what McKercher said. Hope they're listening.

That might explain his career trajectory.

It may help Daniels

Yeah he could get a bit higher.
