Training Saturday 2/12/2023

Good to see. Also needs to work on his composure before kicking, if he can tweak those 2 areas of his game he will be a jet

Tsatas looks to have a decent wingspan

Should fit in somewhere between Anthony Koutafides and David Zaharakis in the best of Greek players…

Stanton was rarely caught in memory, and if he was, it was becuase there was no movement up field.

I have a recollection of Stanton managing to kick into the man on the mark a disproportionate amount of times.

Stanton had one of the slowest ball to foot kicks in recent history.

This resulted in him being smothered, tackled and knocked off the ball A LOT.

I noticed this the day we drafted him, long arms and big hands, good for a midfielder, Stringer is the opposite, short arms and small hands.

I loved Stanton, gave his all.

Learning how to kick from Stanton is like learning to read from Reimers

Does anyone go to training anymore?

Reports a very few and far between.

Winderlich was the best kick I have seen. The action was effortless.

i might have to.

Lawry would hotdog down to training more often if there was a canal leading to Tulla so he could hoon his jet ski up to the front gate a la Glorious [Shark Infested] Gold Coast Canals.

I’d argue that against North in the last final we played against them he did not give his all chasing Goldstein down the wing…he can ask him about it now both are at the club. I cracked the ■■■■■ when I saw that ordinary effort from him.

Work has been crazy busy, everyone wants stuff done before christmas. If i do manage to attend a training session, i’ll certainly report back. Something. No idea what.

I had a pretty good view that day and he was poor.

There isn’t too much to report before the xmas break.
I’ve been to two sessions and watched for 30 minutes each time.
It’s nothing like a normal in season training session or even the ones I saw earlier this year.

I’m hoping to get down there after the xmas break so I can actually compare what we are doing now versus what I saw earlier this year.

Bit late mate.

Should’ve been doing this 12 years ago.
