Once again the Collingwood site (JB I assume) will cover training for those that can't be there through a live chat.

The live chat will start 1t 9.30am, 1 hour before training kicks off.

This may be the most important training session of our year, with Ball, Prestigiacomo and Leon Davis all pushing to prove themselves.

I'm still undecided as to whether or not to go, as I can't find anyone else who has taken the week off to go with.

Anyone else attending tomorrow, or Friday?:confused:
 
I'll be there

A few media outlets are running with "30,000 people tomorrow." I think that is a bit of a strech, but 5-10 thousand wouldn't surprise me.
 
I always thought there would be more there on Friday, as you can after training go and watch the parade.

Plus I think the location puts a few people off, knowing they won't get a great view if there are 20k there (which there probably won't be).
 
I decided to take Friday off in case I want to go and watch them train, I'll see whether I feel like it on the day, or I might take a rare opportunity to sleep in.

I'll probably go and take the kids.
Don't know what to do with them all day as it's school holidays.
I never go to training, as we are in the Grand Final, why not !:thumbsu:
 
Ah, bugger this, I'll be there tomorrow (well this morning now), with the "hordes" of my brothers and sisters.

I think I might try and position myself behind the goals at the Yarra end, look for the little bastard with a white hat (among 20K, hehe).

Now all I have to do is figure out how to get in there (guessing parking will be a bitch).
 
Il be there wearing the membership hat and also the Collingwood official jacket and Collingwood trackies. I cant wait I am eager to see how Ball trains alongs with the rest of the team.
 
Go bally go go go!!!!!

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!


I did note while going through Richmond station today on my way to uni the signs at the city end of the station usually saying "interchange only" had in big bold writing "Exit to Collingwood training". Pity I have to be at uni today, would much prefer to be at training :(
 
Is it just at the normal training ground? any updates on who trained well? Ball obviously running is a big positive...
How about Leon or Presty?

Great news about Bally, big crowd there too as expected.

Any reason that training wasn't held at Vic park, Gosch's Paddock would be pretty cramped with over 10k there.

The players didn't want to break routine apparently, it was there decision.

Jonathon Bernard: Ball trots in extents his right leg the full distance when he kicks.

fcuk yes!!!!

edit: Just remembered it's his LEFT that was the issue. But JB saying he's fine.
 
More news on Ball...



Note: it was the left leg that had the issue wasn't it?

Yes it was but he be putting his full weight onto that hammy

I'm bringing the 6 year old foster child down for his first training and parade on Friday so will definitely be there...then I get to go back to Melbourne Saturday all on my own for the GF - he keeps complaining that I didn't get him a seat!!!!, even though I'm standing - pie for life this one.:D
