Our younger to mid-age blokes have been doing tan runs and training at Punt Rd including some ball work.

There were 5 blokes doing some 100m and 200m runs at Punt Rd today but they didn't look like any of ours and weren't wearing Richmond gear. Looked more like 17-18 year olds from Hailebury and Brighton Grammar by the jumpers they were wearing.

Here's a preseason training report (last Wednesday) from BF:

Not really a report as such, but just some tidbits for any rabid Tigers fans out there.

Strolled down and had a look at the Tigers doing some pre-season work last Wednesday.

- No sign of Richo or Brown.

- Raines looked incredibly fit.

- Foley spent the entire time I was there (about 40 mins), sprinting from one end of the ground to the other. Seemed to have about 1 min rest in between. He was under the watchful eye of a running coach who was giving him advice about spending too much time on his right leg whilst running.
He looked really, really fit.

- Joining him was Kayne Pettifer. He was about 60 metres behind him each time and was really battling. Perhaps Wallace wants to push him up into the midfield this year?

- David King appeared to run the session.

- They were very vocal and seemed pretty serious.

That'll make his sponsor on here happy  ;).

Good to hear Axel's not resting on his laurels and still working hard as ever to improve further. Poor Petts lol.

they don't actually - there's a fair bit of skill involved

But seeing all the biff has been taken out of the AFL - it's nice to see it remains in some sports

Yes I can see everything is like it always is  ;) ;) I am just catching up on some reading.

Glad I missed trade week but home in time for the draft  :thumbsup

I also found a new Tiger team to support while I was away.

The Hamilton Tiger Cats in the CFL (Canadian Football League - gridiron). Finished bottom of the ladder and won only 2 games this season - sounded familar so I had to jump on their bandwagon :cheers :clapping ;D

No probs WP  :thumbsup :cheers. I couldn't believe it was cheaper to SMS North America than to SMS from Learmonth near Ballarat  :o  ???.

Just on training - all the players are back for preseason training this week but they are non-public sessions.
