Training Junction Oval 4/6


SARS74

Recommended Posts

Hi all, this is my first post but been reading Demonland for years.

I went to training at the Junction Oval this morning.

A quick summary for you all:

Garland trained the entire session and did not seem hindered by his knee injury from last week.

Tapscott, Gawn & Jurrah were completing a number of 100m 3/4 pace & sprints for about 15 minutes while the rest of the group were inside for a team meeting. These 3 then proceeded to kick with each other for 10 minutes. Tapscott & Gawn also spent some time kicking for goals & then off for a bike ride.

Coaches spent some time with Gawn on his kicking style.

Jurrah joined in with the main group for the rest of training. He looked fit to me.

All emergencies joined in for training, as per usual.

Simple short skills session that lasted about 45 minutes. Handballing drills, bit of kick to kick, end to end drills and some goal kicking.

Plenty of talk & generally clean ball handling seeing the ball was a bit slippery.

Overall the boys seemed to be switched on to me. Hope it follows on into the game over the weekend.

Thanks for this I love it. Keep it up.

Good thread...thanks for the update

how was kyle cheney looking? I still have a suspicion he might get named on saturday...

Kyle looked ok to me. Nothing really to report, other than he is a tank!!!

Frawley did leave early but he seemed ok, maybe just precautionary (hoepefully).

Great work SARS....love these updates!!

It was mentioned yesterday that Scully may not be in the side this week - to put any fears to bed did he train fully?

Fingers crossed for Chip that all is well.....he has half a hand on an All-Australian jumper IMO.

Scully trained the entire session and moved well.

There was nothing in his training today that would suggest he wont play.

Magnificent to hear that Liam is looking maybe closer to return than expected.

Will be very interested to see Gawn and Tapscott when they get into action.

Thanks for the report - always appreciated.

Any news on Fitzpatrick ???? Does anyone know much about him other than he is very tall and athletic?

Bailey said he and Trengove trained really strongly and are itching to get out there...

:D

It's ridiculous how much we already rely on them.

Fitzpatrick is selected in Casey 2s. Think I might have a look before the main game

Mono,

I have seen Jack F a couple of times at Casey. He moves quite well for a big fellow but is still not confident to get into the thick of things.

It is too early to make any judgements but he is certainly the right body type for a mobile ruckman.

I think he's the one who's going to take longest to get going out of this year's crop. He's very thin still and has had his development slowed by CFS. I don't think we'll see him in the senior team this year. Maybe next for the experience, but I wouldn't stress if not.

We know what Jurrah can bring to the table

Taps as a forward could be good and Gawn we need to be good - both could be keys in deficient areas

Taps also seems to have ripping foot skills

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had
