Training 4.12.08

[dylan123]

I'm going to guess that Johncock has come back fatter than ever, it seems to be a preseason cliche, or the anti-cliche the opposite of "such and such player has come back fitter than ever" I thought smoking was supposed to keep you thin.

oh no way, jockcock has been secretly training without any of us knowing
his been running at night non stop, his going to be like rocky for us

 

[betterthanu]

When is the next training session? I will try and pop down there to get a few videos and photos and write a report (maybe).

Monday morning.

I will again set my alarm then decide to go back to sleep instead.

Thanks people for the great reports

It's amazing how one observation of Sellar bent over puffing during a session sparked so much discussion over what was then termed fact that he wasn't fit enough

I'll just say this on Sellar ....he was a bottom ager so last year was his first proper season.
Sellar, despite the AFC policy, WAS gifted a game last season ......even Smith didn't get that courtesy .......says maybe the club has longterm thoughts on sellar wheras most of us live in the today

It's amazing how one off the cuff comment on BF can generate so much accusations/suspicion around us isn't it? Always remember a few things on BF just either being blown massively out of proportion or totally distorted due to being taken out of context and everyone ending up with mud on their face. Hands up who is still obsessing over Rendell "having a laugh"?

Would also like to add my thanks to all the reports, am just shocked by so much effort by so many!

The quality and detail of reports is maginificent .....but Photos and videos just makes the experience for us interstaters just great.

All we need now are player interviews ....without the canned question / responses

just heard on the news that Taylor Walker has grown a bit and is now 191cm

great wrap up, much appreciated.

AFC website had him at 191cm at the beginning of the year, adelaidenow had him at 192, so if he's grown a bit, I would think he might be closer to 193 now.

 

[Jars458]

I was there too but didn't speak to anyone as who the hell is anyone supposed to be anyway. Walked past some giggling girls, but who could that have been

i have a photo of the big guys running hard where hentschel is next to
Tippet, and Tippett is really struggling whilst Hentschel is doing it quite easily. Also after the wrestling I have a photo of Sellar looking very buggered whilst Hentschel is up and having a shot on goal.

All in all though, training was pretty boring to be honest.

iirc Tails14 stated that Walker was now pushing 195/196cm but he doesnt quite look that tall

 

[SydCrow]

Tails is always talking him up

Great reports all, please keep it up

Although posters actually meeting in the real world is a bit disturbing

I would, but I've already gone to two sessions this pre-season already and I'm going to at least one early January, so I'm having a break! Plus 9.30 is WAY too early! And since I live over an hour away from Adelaide, it means rising VERY early...and I'm not a big fan of those!

That's this years version of the confused look Myke Cook gave you last year.

Good job all.

Note to self: take more vids, and longer vids.

Seriously next time just tape an entire training routine or something, I wish this was longer! And I was even there. That might even be me saying "bursting" in the background, not sure. Sounds like the kind of crap I'd say.

I would love to, but don't think I should.

Particularly if it is who I know it is.

Would be really interested to hear how people think he is going tho.

Unfortunately, I can't really say how well he was going, he was just doing laps when I saw him. I asked the guy I know if he'd impressed at all was was told he'd only just arrived very recently.

Jacky trying to tackle Tippett was one of the funniest things ive ever seen, only made worse by Stab laughing blatantly not 5 metres away from the poor bugger. Ill try to display it pictorially at some point.

I'm holding you to this. And come on, it was hilarious! I still maintain that I wasn't laughing at Jacky, I was laughing at what a massive bull Tippett was. He was like a goddamn steam train the way he ran through Jacky. Hahaha, I still have the mental image of Jacky hanging off behind him in midair as Tippett doesn't even break stride Now THAT'S what we needed a video of, Drum!

When is the next training session? I will try and pop down there to get a few videos and photos and write a report (maybe).

Probably tomorrow, I think there is always a Max Basheer session on every monday. I may go to another one later on in the preseason but probably not for the rest of the month. Still, you never know. I wasn't intending to go to last week's session either!

Oh, and happy birthday

Although posters actually meeting in the real world is a bit disturbing

So is driving to an oval to watch a bunch of guys run around for two hours, but that didn't stop us

Good job all.

Anyone else see a Napolean Dynamite likeness in that shot. His Giant twin brother maybe?

I was hoping you would see this photo! That Myke Cook one immediately came to mind

Hahaha for sure, as long as he can tower over some defenders for a big hanger i'll be happy though.

Unfortunatley I use the nickname napolean dynamite to discribe Westhoff, so it's sort of taken.

Griffin still looks skinny... someone give that bloke a chicken.

Rutten is enormous. My god.

The thing that stands out about Rutten when you see him up close are his legs. I mean, he's enormous, but his legs are something else. They look like tree trunks! Even compared to the rest of his enormous body they look oversized.
