Our family have just returned from the abu dhabi session (the blues are here for a week) and we watched the boys train and then the blues took an aus kick session with kids from abu dhabi and dubai. I must say the session was a great hit, the blue boys were really great with the kids and all kids had a great time. My wife is a blue supporter and I am a tiger. Mixed up family. One boy Jack is mad on the blues the other Sasha is mad on the tigers, I could not brainwash the 2 of them. We were very proud of the blues, they really gave their all, we chatted to Ratts who is a lovely bloke, andy collins duigan, eddie betts (big hit with the kids), gavin brown, armfield, shane osullivan, they all did a great job and you all should be proud of them. They worked very hard as well in their training session, we were very proud to be australians today, and for once in my life I actually could say a good word about our enemy- well done Blues you really graced yourself today.........

Good to see that AFL has support even in Dubai. There's something about being overseas that really brings out the Australian comradery and mateship...regardless of team supported.:thumbsu:

Great effort to post this feedback, ct, much appreciated. :thumbsu: How good is it to hear this sort of report instead of the dreaded booze cruise rubbish?

He is huge and stronger than almost all of the rest of the club. Top heavy though but the Qatar leg strength program would have done him wonders.

Good to see a picture of Kreuzer running. Anyone know if he is totally over the mysterious foot injury?
Can't remember reading anything about what it officially was or might have been - I would hope something was diagnosed? Bower looking good - hope he does a Walker down back (boiled lollies to chocolates in one pre-season).
