Dogs social media team just posted a video of Bont slotting one from the pocket at WO and Marra can be seen in the background. Looks like he's continuing on his training block with us which you love to see.

The other sport you want to get into is wheelchair rugby.

Must be watched live. It's sensational. My introduction was at the 2000 Sydney Para Olympics.

It's played real hard, taking no prisoners, and real fast. Has the strange aspect of not only injuries to the players, but also to their wheelchairs, with emergency repairs by the mechanics. So you have medics and mechanics for each team...

Best sport ever.

I have worked in the disability sector for 25 + years (I am pretty close to qualifying as a nurse/practitioner-believe it or not I will be able to write prescriptions and then apply to work as a doctor after a while-my ex is now a doctor so I want to be one too!) and I am obsessed with sport. I am heavily involved in all sorts of disability sports through my work. It's the best job in the world

It's Lachie Young. I've got high hopes for him this year if we are bold enough to give him a chance

Keath ramps up pre-season training



Key defender Alex Keath has started to take part in match simulation at training as he ramps up his first pre-season as a Bulldog.

The former Crow underwent minor surgery on his lower leg during the off-season, and is tracking well in his recovery as he targets a return to full training by the end of January.

“At this stage it’s all going well – I had a 10-week scan which the surgeon was happy with, and have been progressing with my training loads,” Keath told RSN Breakfast Club on Friday morning.

“We have a pre-season camp coming up (on the Sunshine Coast) next week, and then some practice games which I’m hoping to be a part of.”

The 27-year-old was acquired during the last 30 minutes of the Telstra AFL Trade Period, arriving at the Kennel alongside key forward and former Saint Josh Bruce.

“’Brucey’ has been a great addition – he’s been dominating out on the training track,” Keath said.

“He’s able to play a number of positions on the ground too, so he’ll be a really good pick-up this year.”

The Bulldogs will spend their 2020 pre-season camp on the Sunshine Coast, with an open training session to be held on January 26 at the Maroochydore Sports Complex from 9:30am.

Still incredibly happy with the Bruce and Keath pick ups.

Great pick ups and the type of players we wanted. They complement our already solid midfield. We need the consistency now from our team and if we can get that will be a tough team to beat for the opposition.

Bruce seems to have either fitted in quite well.... or our KPDs are terrible and Bruce is murdering them. St Kilda fans all think he'll do better in our system with better delivery into the F50.

We haven't seen a fit Keath take on Bruce as yet, it would be an interesting match up as Keath has made his name as a ball-reading interceptor rather than a stopper and Bruce is one of the best contested marks in the competition.

Sunshine Coast camp preview

2020 marks the sixth year running that the Bulldogs have headed to the region as part of their pre-season preparations.

As the AFL season gets nearer, the Western Bulldogs’ pre-season will heat up – literally – with an intensive training camp on the Sunshine Coast.

It will mark the sixth year running that the Bulldogs have headed to the region as part of their preparations.

This year’s camp will again include an open training session for fans – on January 26 – before the team heads home on January 31.

The camp program is set to include a variety of training – including skills, match simulation and gym – alongside a number of team-based activities.

General Manager of Football, Chris Maple, said the camp has provided plenty of benefit over the years and expected the same for the group in 2020.

“The training environment and facilities are exceptional and provide a fantastic opportunity for our players to bond together while completing a high volume of football and conditioning training,” Maple said.

“It’s also a great chance to meet our Bulldogs fans in Queensland, and we hope to have a big turnout for our open training session on January 26.”

For midfielder-forward Toby McLean, the Sunshine Coast component has been a staple of his six pre-seasons as a Bulldog.

“It’s always a good time of year,” McLean said of the camp.

“It’s a nice 10 days to get away and bond a bit more with the boys in the heat.

“We’re always looking to improve every pre-season, always looking to get stronger and fitter.

“We’ve got a lot of boys out on the track and it’s a good, competitive environment out there at the moment.”
