Bags was having lots of set shots last pre-season, too.
Not sure if Jackie was around right till the end but Bags wasn’t just having set shots, he was having 1 on 1 coaching with Lloyd.
I’ve got a lot of photos to sort out so i’ll post them later. A lot of the stuff Jackie mentioned I have in photo form.
Channel 9 and Channel 7 also had camera crews there. The channel 9 guy did a lot of footage with my ‘stand by hird’ sign, but the side with the ‘backed by bomberblitz.com’. No idea what media stuff there was. EFC should also have footage and photos as both were around a fair bit as well.
Cheers JM, these reports are what makes Blitz great. Fantastic news re Browne - do you have any clue as to when Zaka and Myers are set to return to full training?Also, how do you think Marty Gleeson tracking so far this pre-season? I really rate the lad and hope to see him featuring regularly in the seniors this year. Thanks again mate.
Work colleague of mine who is mates with Zaka (went to school with him) said 3-4 weeks. Maybe just in the modified group for that timeframe…
Watching Giles having shots at goal. Only missed one, and that one hit the post. Any angle, any distance, no worries.
Anyone want to do some forensic work? I’m 99% sure this was a scout.
