Was about 3-350 punters there tonight.
Pretty slack training wise,seemed more like a promo.
Kick to kick was on between players and who-ever wanted.
Wallace was jumping the fence shaking hands and referring to Casey as "Mr President"

TV cameras were there.
Was like a frikken carnival,similar to when rocky trained Hollywood style...and had his arse kicked. :eek:

YO ADRIAN!!!!
 
Cogs arms look pretty big.Obviously been working out heaps.Good to see.

Tambo is already a cult figure amongst the supporters.lol.
He threw a tackle on a bag with x10 more ferocity than anyone else had done prior to the cheers of the adoring crowd.

Richo was up to his usual body language negativity during one of the hanball matches.
Managed to sparay a shot from 40 in the kick to kick.

Staff was just doing laps and appeared to be a little slim.
Definitely no weights.

Gaspars shots at goal in the kick to kick were probably the worst as far as contact and travel.

Looks and feels like a new club or at least the definite makings of one.

hey drop pount, who was no 44 ?
The kids as big as Richo.
 
I saw Browny out there but was paying more attention to the newere face Brissylad.

Danny Meyer.
Is he a trained runner ?
He has technique out of his ars but im not so sure about his footballing ability.
In fairness it was hardly the type of situation where one could make a fair appraisal.

Oxx it was in fact a promo for the fans. You can't therefore expect the players to be going full steam with people all over the ground. I'd be interested to hear from someone attending a proper training session.
 
Yeah I gathered that eventually.
Should read my mail more often.lol.

I tell u one thing.
No matter how much negativity the press and other clubs throw our way,
we are one of the original Big 4 AND STILL ARE.
Only problem is we havent been performing that way. :D
Our fans are the best and will back the club thru thick and thin EVEN IF they sometimes mouth off.
It;s called passion and tehre was plenty of it in the crowd today.

Good on us !!!
 
brissyboy browny looked very focused, didnt say much, just had his head down and was running his ass off, looked knackered, seems leaner than I remember as well



here here oxx, it felt good to be a tiger down there today, lots of positive energy and lol was like a carnival :D

yes who was the ponytail guy with the dog taking screamers over the young kids during the kick to kick? poor little kiddies actually they sconed him a few in return HEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEEEEEE :D :D :D
 
good turnout today, considering we finished 16th last year

I specifically went down today to get my first glimpse of the new sprogs and espescially to witness Gilmour and Meyer and wasn't let down 1 bit.

I think these two are the smokies. What number was Polo wearing?

Tambling is a freak FULLSTOP - thanks again Dermie n co :D

Deledio looked very sound and reminds me of Gary Lyon (the football player). not flashy like Tambling but sure and effective.

Meyer indeed has a wonderful running action and i can definately see the camparisons his former coach has of him and wanganeen. He has the same sort of build and those John Wayne like legs but a very quick acceleration with balance and poise.

Gilmour is doing his second preseason and is theoretically a year ahead of the new recuits even though he is the same age group as most of them being a result of being picked up as a young recruit last year. I think he will given a chance in the ones if he performs at the burgs.

Cogs seems ok, Rodan seemed to carry a slight limp, did anyone notice that?
Moore, Hartigan and Jacko seemed ready for action as was our everest eaters Knobel and Simmonds. Staff was runnin laps, maybe its a sign of things to come as his withering body prepares for yet another onslaught. Knobel and Simmonds for me with staff as the third option.

The best part of the day was tamblings chase down the wing to regather the ball. Even though he didnt have his red suit on i still think we should simply call him FLASH, any takers?

Couldnt care less bout many of last years as i said was only there to suss the younguns but i did notice how well Browny trains yet Campbel and Richo seemed well abit less interested than the other players. I can only has a guess that they must be so over playing in finals year in year out that they've just seen it all before :D

The best part i saliva'd over all arvo was the competition for a spot in the ones next season will be red hot. There was close to two teams out there today both capable of doing the business on any given day. Wow what pleasant dilemma to be in

Best Draft ever in my books, very even spread of talent in the end and i know we payd for it bad but look at where we are now

what politics, who cares. We've had profits before but it still didnt make any difference on the field. Goin on todays turnout, we're all together and dare i say it again.....USHERING IN A NEW ERA :)
 
Numbers were all over the shop.

Agree with Blx,Richo and Campbo weren'e trying to hide the fact that they were not into this particular program.

Quite a crap attitude really.

The sooner we ditch the old school the sooner we can start the new.
