Re: Pre-season training - 2016
Saw some photos of Mitch Wallis and Tom Boyd doing extra sprint work at Sorrento during their down time. Great to see Boyd doing the extra work - if he takes big strides this year our forward line will be hard to stop.
Would love to know if Mitch initiated these sessions, taking it upon himself to give Boyd every chance to really break through this year. Wouldn't surprise at all, such an outstanding young leader.

Mitch would be a pretty good choice to train with - he is studying sports science at VU as well.

Im pretty sure they are back from this week but not 100% sure F'scary.

I'd phone the club to check but if they are back (and I think they are) then Monday and Thursday's are closed sessions and other days are okay.

think I'll do that GVGjr, although I have had mixed results getting people to answer the phone in the Summer in the few attempts I have made over the past 10 years.

Just checked the HUN and it would appear they will be back next week. I'd still check with the club though.

Re: Pre-season training - 2016
As an old hand training is a lot different this year. More closed sessions. Most of the morning sessions are closed.
They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

And when it is open it's little more than a warm up run, and even then it's not on at the advertised time. Trying to attend training is a pretty pointless exercise this year unfortunately.

I don't mind if there is a dividend on field. I don't see how you can conceal training at Whitten Oval completely from someone hell bent on seeing it but I assume they have anticipated that problem and come up with a plan.

Re: Pre-season training - 2016
Spotted the North boys riding along Beach Rd on Saturday morning, a few things I noticed:
* They were wearing training singlets, we wear designer cycling uniforms - We win.
* Beach Rd - meh... We cycle along the Great Ocean Rd. - We win.
* I passed a number of them and I'm very much an amateur rider, no chance I'd pass our boys - We win again.

On this Matt Boyd posted on Instagram a couple of days ago a large contingent of our players riding in full Dogs lycra gear in the kinglake area. Tagged were Roarke Smith, Fletcher Roberts, Lin Jong, Jordan Roughead, Daniel Giansiracusa, Jed Adcock and Zaine Cordy.

With the fence around the ground all they need to do is lock the gates and the door at Barkers cafe, roll down the blinds, and no one can get access without trying to scale the 10 foot fence. It wouldn't be hard to pick out the couple of people who went to that length.
