Thanks Caz. Sounds like the club and these boys may have turned a negative into a positive. They need to continue to show that commitment throughout the season but very pleasing to read this report. |

Great to hear something so positive come out of a bad situation. Impressed with how Eddie Betts looks. Don't think I have seen him fitter! Have always been a fan of his talent but have been frustrated with his lack of ability to get himself in peak condition. If he can stay fit he could easily be a top line footballer and spend time on the ball. Guys like him who can read the ball off the pack and kick it to position are rare and can make a huge difference to the side. Hopefully this incident has woken him up to what he needs to do!

The other thing I would say is... congratulations to the players for taking their punishment on the chin and working to better themselves. I think it is credit to them. And well done to the club for sending them there too. I'm waiting for the negative nellies to pipe up over something... but from my perspective it is well done to all concerned. |

First decent article I have read in the Hun for many months. Credit to Jon Anderson & the club The pics on the back page & inside the rag are great. Hoops looks in absolutely fantastic condition. |

Can’t believe the club would release this story, what was Coutts thinking?

Ripped bodies...the promise of fit dedicated and contrite players... ok..maybe they could of sent 'em to Guantanamo where at least the music was good...but...hey.... it's a good day..the sun is out...brought a smile.

..great stuff to see, more to the 'punishment' than first i thought.. ..i initially felt that missing preseason games was neither here nor there as far as punishments go, and while dissappointed by their silly pre-xmas follies, i wasn't ropeable.. ..but this kinda hardcore training is alot more in tune i reckon.... |

Now let's not be naive nellies... While some might find pleasure seeing them being physically caned, the question is do they honestly now realise the off-field professional standards required to be an AFL player?? |

"This is an old-school punch-in-the-head gym, and believe me, those boys didn't get it easy. They were intimidated when they arrived and we quickly told them how weak they were," said Foster, a former amateur boxer who attended Riverdale Technical School with Ratten. Funniest thing I've read in ages. Doesn't sound like the sort of place I'll be going anytime soon though...
