A torrential downpour brought a premature end to the Bombers' training session at Essendon Grammar this afternoon. The players commenced training at 4pm but a storm struck soon after that left the ground under water and the session was adandoned soon after. An alternative training session may be arranged for tomorrow. The highlight of the session for onlookers came as the players were leaving the track. A group of players led by Mark Mercuri made a bee-line for fitness coach John Quinn. The fitness guru was unmercifully dumped onto the waterlogged turf and dragged through the mud. The players responsible may be in for some tough fitness sessions in the near future.
