Essendon has completed its two-day pre-season camp in Macedon and Kyneton.

On the first day, the Dons were put through their paces in a gruelling three-hour session on the immaculate Tony Clarke Reserve, situated under the stunning scenery of Mount Macedon. 

Following the main session, the Bombers checked into their overnight base at PGL Camp Campaspe Downs to complete the first session of team activities, which included kayak competitions and a challenging raft building exercise.
