Fine moring this morning

Everybody on the track except Hunt, Petracca, Trengove

Lots of stoppage drills with more and less defenders again

Lots of ball movement drills again, with more and less defenders

Match simulation, not split into AFL or Casey, just three teams

McCartney was still working with Max King ad Max Gawn when everybody else had left, including me

Amusing bit at the start, Shannon Byrnes produced a Dallas Cowboys footy helmet for Nev Jetta to wear after three belts to the head in consecutive weeks, wore it on warm up lap until he spotted the cameras

They are never down, there are too many upbeat characters now, the drills were very good today, just the occasional [censored] up but that happens in games as well, another solid two hour session

Saty I watched Fellini's Satyricon last night, now that is a weird movie, grotesque! The Devil Inside, dark. No accounting for taste I suppose. Thanks for the training report.

Are they resting Brayshaw during the week a bit more since he has been playing or does it seem like he is coping alright with the loads.

Nah, Brayshaw was one of the best today, except at the end when he took Jonesy on in a goal kicking comp again, must be slightly masochistic, he must also be doing some serious weights, his body shape is changing every time I see him

A few observations

1. jones and vince didnt join in at the start. I can understand Vince, but it did make me wonder if there's something nqr with Jones

2. we have so far to go... McCarthy was teaching them how to use numbers around the ball, how to fill space etc etc. Its a long way from ingrained for some of ours.

3. H. runs at full intensity in the drills. Not all do.

4. Our skills are variable ... some cant hit the target in the drills not sure how they'll do it in the heat of battle

Brayshaw will be a beauty, by the way!

Jones was going full tilt at the end, I asked him as he walked off just for the sake of it, he said he was fine, Vince did 3/4 of the drills, Watts also didn't do everything, but said he was ok,

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

WAYNE WUSSELL'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Rehab: Lever, Spargo, McAdam, Lindsay, Brown Sinnema is excellent by foot and has a decent vertical leap. Windsor is training with the Defenders.
