Training - Friday 18th April, 2014

[Satyriconhome 10,880]

Braved the Antarctic conditions

Kent left early, calf tightness (I asked)...not confident.

Spencer very light session after no show Wednesday, assured me he is fine.

Terlich will play.

Jamar said a very interesting thing, asked him when he would be available, answer "when I can get around the ground, you get found out".

No shows Hogan, Michie, Barry, Tapscott.

JKH switched on, one of the last off the ground, just wants to play.

Nev Jetta pleased to be upgraded, just wants to bring his good form to AFL if he gets a chance.

Asked Chip for 3 goals, big smile, so playing with confidence.

And a perfect end to the session Cross and McKenzie last off the ground, after practicing picking up a wet ball off the ground for 15 minutes, asked both in their opinion whether G Ablett Jnr was best player of last 10 years, both said yes, Cross said 6 or 7 and Judd before that, I asked apart from the skill what was so good about him.

Cross "his core strength, and he is speedy, you can't catch the little bastard" ... loved it, so not competitive at all.

Pity about Kent, liked his game last week.

Rode my bike down to the Lexus centre to look at the new statue of Louey and watched the Pies train for a while. I counted about 6 or 8 supporters watching. Then rode up to see the Dees and noted there were 20 or more gathered before training had even got started. Amazing what a win does for supporter's morale!

Unfortunately decided to skidaddle once the southerly buster came in and the rain started so didn't see any action.

deplorable conduct viscount. didn't want your lycra wet eh?

i'll have to remove you from my potential trench companion list

a good drenching might have gone some way to washing the "filth" off you

Yes DC poor form I admit but SWMBO was with me and she gave me an ultimatum, if we stayed any longer I would have to go with her tomorrow to watch the Hawks train out at Waverley Park! That's when I really got on my bike!

Must have been a tough Pies session, after training went to Cheeky Monkey on Swan St for breakfast (can recommend), Fasolo, Witts, Thomas and one other tucking in including chips and tomato sauce

The "other" was probably the club dietician.

I dragged the missus down to watch the Dees train (she lives across the road) and she wasn't happy when the rain came in.

Dawes trained really strong and I was impressed by the size of Aidan Riley. The boy's thighs are thicker than my waist! Also Frawley training with the forwards.
