Training 2025 Pre Season Thread

[Northernsoul74]

Haven’t seen much about Cooper in any of the reports. I’ve been away all preseason but if anyone gets a decent look at him in match sims I’d love some insight on how he’s been going? I liked him in the juniors but was probably more impressed when he played as a bullocking marking forward than as a midfielder. Certainly one I’m not sure where he will eventually settle at AFL grade.

Yeah is there anything to suggest that Hynes is likely to become a dominant mid. Everything I read suggests he’s a forward.

Mid. Forward. Whichever it is I don't mind ... as long as he's dominant.

Geeez Buss is looking stronger

Heres some photos that were in the article

That's a pretty interesting group of players over in Perth doing extras during time off.

Buss, JJ, Garcia, Naughts, Arty all make sense as WA boys, Bont and Lachie Smith as the ring ins

There's something about Lachie Smith. Hopefully gets a crack at some point.

Bont’s fiancée is from WA, probably there seeing her family.

Looks like Libba has got engaged, as has Bailey Dale.

I think McLean got married recently as well.

Happy New Year to all!

I look like travelling at the end of September so that will GUARANTEE that the Bulldogs will be contenders…

Rewind to 2016, wife wanted to go to Europe, I said book to leave after the last Saturday in September so she did.

Of course, the AFL then introduced the pre finals week off that year which pushed the GF into October. Draw came out after booking.....thought going to miss the GF but the Dogs hadn't made the GF for 55 years, so surely they won't in 2016......

Watched it in a Copenhagen pub at 6am with 4 other Dog supporters but full of Swans supporters.

That's life.....

Can we all chip in for her to book another overseas holiday in late September?

Lachie Smith had a good year good ball handling needs to work on marking and strength got a thrashing in the preliminary final.
