You know your footy preseason is going badly ......

[one-eyed]

where your 44-year-old coach beats you in a 2km time trial 

-------------------------------------------------------

YOUNG West Coast forward Murray Newman is one player who won't be the subject of the annual cliche "his best pre-season ever".

And today he was embarrassed in a running trial - going so slowly he was beaten home by 44-year-old coach John Worsfold.

The Eagles first to seventh-year players returned to pre-season training today with two 2km time-trials.

Newman finished dead last in both and got slower as he went, finishing in times of 8min13sec and 9min36sec according to the AFL website.
