Big statement. Hope we get a look at the lad in the Gandalf then. What do other training watchers think of this prospect?
 
Great report.  The thing that stands out to me is the intensity that has been instilled into the training.  I remember many years ago in the dim dark ages of the spud going to training and watching them doing  the drill running the ball from end to end.  They always looked to casual and looked to be going half pace.  There was never any pressure applied to the ball carrier and it used to make me wonder how you could play with intensity when you trained with none.

Seems to be a greatly different focus under Wallace with intensity and pressure being key ingredients.  Skills can only improve if they train with intensity and having simulated matchday pressure applied at training.

Too right Gus. The lack of intensity & pressure at training under Spud showed us up big time on gameday when pressure was applied from the opposition. We were like schoolkids who had been thrown up against the AFL premiers
 
Hit me today actually how much longer our intensity stays up at training and made me wonder did this have something to do with the way we finished of games at the end of 2005, was not just our fitness better but our concentration a hell of a lot better
 
Great report CC :clap

Have a lot of time doe McGuane. He has the potential to be a very damaging O'Keefe type (from the swans) while he develops his game into a 3rd tall or potential JB type CHB.

Training on Wednesday is what time and where? Going by the club site is like trying to win lotto ::)

McGuane is too skinny for senior games from what I see.

Ta CC. The Tambling rumour has been put to bed.

Did Chaffey join in a full session? Was Browny moving well?

its great to see the club being cautious with blinga but unless there is something there i think he would be training dont you gpb?

I used to play a lot of footy with Sticks before he got drafted and he played mainly CHF and Ruck for Broadbeach and did fine at it so yeh but i would like to see him as a Forward more.
