North Melbourne players were told to arrive at the club early on Thursday morning but it wasn't for skills, rather a weights session in the Aegis Park gym.

Most of the club's youngsters were spared the pain with an afternoon training run to follow, but Shaun Atley wasn't as fortunate.

There was a feeling of anticipation amongst the group with a week to ponder round four's clash against the Dockers.

On Friday, the players will be back on the track for an open session. Supporters are welcome to attend training which is scheduled to begin at around 11.00am.
