Collingwood Training Times

Wednesday 22 September
Gosch's Paddock (10:30 am)

Friday 24 September
Gosch's Paddock (10:15 am)

Training times subject to change at short notice.

So there we go, we know when the boys are training.

I find it a little strange they are training before the Grand Final parade, but then again, but that's when we usually train so it's cool.

I'd say we are training today too, but it would be a closed session.

Note, Stkilda has one open session, and that's today (or at least that's what has been reported).

What happened to Victoria Park Training?

What happened to Victoria Park Training?

Was never on. Only talk was of a training session on the G but the footy dept might have over-ruled it as they want to keep everything normal.

Im hearing a session at the "G" is still on the cards due to the expected 20k fans (minimum) turning up!

Bump, it seems this is a popular topic, with another thread already popping up about in here.

I had to laugh at the Saints supporters today, it's their only chance to see their team train before the Grand Final, and there's still 5 days to go, what a joke.

Plus there was only 3-4 thousand people there, what a joke.

Pert himself said today that he is expecting and planning for "chaos", especially on Friday before the Parade.

I say we make the city our own on Friday, first taking over Gosch's Paddock, then the city itself.

Imagine 20 thousand pies fans walking to the city from the Richmond area.

I am gonna try and go to both Wednessdays and Fridays training sessions. Hopefully Ball trains on Weds.

If Ball doesn't train on Wednesday, he won't play, because it is our main training session, where we go through a proper hitout and strategies before the game.

I'd bet he will train, even if he isn't 100% right.

Love it.

I arrive Thu night, go to a training session and then wander over for the parade.

So will there be more people on the Wednesday one?

Nah, I'd say the Friday session would be the big one, as it will be closely followed by the GF parade. (about an hour between training and the parade).
