Boys had training yesterday. A very hard session. During the time I was there, I think there was a heavy price being put on endurance type work.

Kyle Cheney among Hawks receiving new numbers

So we are into preseason for 2011 season and after some major work to the playing surface that saw the whole turf relayed, the boys were back training at the famous oval. Most of the players out there and from all reports, quite a long session that included ball work and a simulated match.

By the time I got there, the match was just ending but I was able to get some photos of the boys running. Any help with point out the new players greatly appreciated.

Training 27/1/2010 – Its been a while for me!

After life (i.e. family committments) had prevented me from getting to training, I was able to get down for 30 odd minutes of training this morning. My son (Patrick) and I were down at Waverly for a training kickoff about 9:30am, with players coming down in two waves (including Hodge sneaking down late (see photo below)). One of the nice sights to see and hear is Max Bailey taking a very active role in the rehab group (okay, I mean I would rather him not in the rehab group but you know what I mean)! Anyway, I am sure your not here for my report, there are better around, on with the photos!

Training 25/11/2009 – More Running

Second post form the 25th November 2009. Mostly running although there is one of Jordan Lewis doing kicking practice. Not sure the reason for this as its the second time that while the rest of the group ran, he was doing kicking practice. Amoungst the photos is one of Wade Skipper, formerly of the Bulldogs, who is hoping to be picked up in todays draft. From the phantom drafts that have come out, it appears he might be waiting for the Rookie draft to be picked up as a Mature Aged Rookie.
