OK, it's an uninspiring OP, but I drove past Punt Road today and near the ME Centre there were about 10 fit looking blokes doing handball drills. Richmond training kit.

Couldn't identify as World War 3 was going on in the back seats, but I think we're away!

All observations/ reports etc in here.

Massive preseason for our Club. Go Tiges!
 
I know Cotch and Ellis were having a run and a kick at Princes Park this morning. Officially I believe we're back on Wednesday for the 1-3 year players then the 4 year plus guys return about 2 weeks after that. So everyone should be back by time the draft rolls around.

While the missus yells at me to stay in my lane.
Yep. Love them, but sometimes I'd be happy to lease them out for a few weeks.

Read the report on long term injuries, on the AFL website. Knights wasn't there so i guess it means he's ready to go, along with Mcbean.

McBean was still in plaster 2-3 weeks ago. He'd be restricted for a while you'd think.
Knights was jogging laps during the EF week, with no brace, but early days there

haha, I feel you brother. I have 4 boys ages 12 years and under. Boy can they get into a shit fight while in the back seat. The best "Shut up and be quite" tool I use is a water spray. If they start acting up I go all rambo on them squirting there evil little body's with water. The water technique worked for my dog when i was training him not to shit in the house so i figured i would try it with the kids, it works.

Ofcorse I may need to graduate to electric collars when my boys get older :p

Cotchin and Ellis (If you follow them on Instagram you'd see their bi-daily posts together) have been running, exercising and kicking the footy for about two weeks now. Brilliant to see :D

They're all doing their own off-season training, even when on holiday or in here at the club.
They just dont have to contractually be here till next week but they all work out on their own or with each other during the break.

Like every other club ;)
 
Love hearing the boys out on the track putting in the hard yards, just makes me that more keen for what the future holds as the culture we are instilling throughout the club from the CEO to the players is phenomenal. #NoPainNoGain
 
Gotta love our B&F winner o_O
