Re: Training Thread 2013

Thanks TD for the report. Living on the Peninsula I don't get to see many training sessions so it is greatly appreciated to read any snippet of training news.

Re: Training Thread 2013

Thanks TD, the Northern component thrive on these first hand accounts from training runs. It's not something that is generally reported.

Re: Training Thread 2013

I don't really go to training but for anyone that went how did we look?

Re: Training Thread 2013

Went down to training today.

-light session. Stretching, a few run throughs and then into it. I counted about 30 players taking part.
-Cooney didn't train but I didn't notice who else wasn't there. feel free to run names past me and I'll see if I can remember seeing them
-players looked very happy. Lots of voice.
-started with in close hand balling drills for the mids and chipping the ball about by foot for the forwards. Watching Griff and Murph receiving and handballing the ball is a pleasure to see. Their anticipation and ability to get away again is freakish.
-Roberts was away from the group for this part working on picking the ball up below his knees with Murph.
-then the players split into groups and they had a competitive game with a football and a tennis ball. The aim was to get both balls from one end to the other quicker than the other groups. It got very competitive, Lin Jong and Tutt dropped the ball twice. Gia wasn't happy and let them know about it. Gia and Murph were feeding the ball to one group and Hunter (I think) and Stevens were feeding the other.
-Dalhaus, Hunter and a few others got into a push and shove after this drill which ended with Talia (I think) on the ground with the others piling on top
-Griff, Roberts, Talia, Dal, and Wallis were the last to leave the track.

Daniel Bandy was there. Minson and Crossy spent a long time talking to him after the session had finished.


I am happy to answer any questions.

Re: Training Thread 2013

Thanks TD for the update, I wonder what Bandy was up to?

I remember chatting to him after a player Golf Day, very nice bloke. We were in the bar at the golf course and on the screen was an old game from the 80's. We all had a good laugh over the shorts they were wearing back then.
