2015 East Meets West Family Day

[Eastdog]

It looks to me like Summer is running a few weeks late. I wouldn't count on a mild March just yet.

Yeah fair point GVG. It can still be quite hot around early March when my birthday is and not until after mid March that it starts to cool down. This summer compared to many years we have been fortunate not having too many days over 40 degrees.

You have no excuse now Easty. It will be under 30 tomorrow.

Nah I think I'll wait for the main family day now GVG.

For those that do go would love to hear how it went. Cheers

I'll be there so will lodge a quick update Easty.
The football club has issued the EW Committee with some contingencies for the potential inclement weather e.g. player autographs in the EJ Whitten Stand for the kids versus along the boundary line.
(Not surprisingly, over the years the EW Committee has held its collective breath when it comes the the weather forecast for EMW Day!)

Cheers Smads57 that would be good.

Not great conditions but a good day. The players were on the ground early doing their drills and I think our skill level is looking good.
The East West club does a good job on the day and should be congratulated.

Had a good look at some of our youngsters today and I was impressed by their kicking skills. Hamilton uses the ball so well and has an easy kicking style. Goodes and Kelly from our rookie list also looked sharp.

I wonder if the attacking way we are training will mean we will get caught out a bit more if we turn it over but the theme has been the same in most sessions I have seen and revolves around keeping the ball moving quickly and making good decisions.

No but he looked very fit and tanned.

Great to see he & Super supporting the club despite not being nominated for a father son last year. Classy.

Brain fart... My bad. Steve.

Super and Darcy are up for nomination (or not) this year.
