    Pre Season Training

    If there's anything you want to know about a specific player over pre season. Such as how they're travelling, whether you've heard they've suffered an injury etc... feel free to post your query/question here & I'll endeavour to have it answered for you.

    Mods to consider stickieing, or is that stickying this post.

    It's actually called West Footscray/Whitten Oval these days. And it's the Sydenham line these days as well, Eastern Suburbs boy.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    You can tell who comes from the Eastern Suburbs.

    There is no longer a St. Albans line. It's the Sydenham line now although the trains say they are going to Watergardens.

    Western Suburbs - yuk!

    All drug dealers and crime gangs.

    Re: Pre Season Training

    Here is some useful information:

    Training

    *Friday 30 Nov - 10.30am Aberfeldie - 1km time trials followed by skills.
    *Monday 3 Dec - 8.30am Princes Park time trials followed by skills at WO at 10.30am.
    *Wednesday 5 Dec - 9.30am WO running & skills.
    *Friday 7 Dec - 9.30 am WO Skills.

    Aboriginal quartet

    -All had this week off.
    -Lynch & Harbrow - training fantastically well.
    -Stack - nice frame & after Xmas, his girlfriend & child move from Broome to Melb.
    -Hill - very impressive, particularly attitude wise.

    Game style

    To be tweaked slightly for 2008. Will go longer more often to full forward as we'll be a bit taller up there. Continue to use pace, but improve kicking going into half forward.

    Tiller

    Has bulked up, still developing, expect 10 games minimum.
