A coupe missing today Tyson and Jetta, but also a few did very little, Grimes, Toumpas, McKenzie, Stretch, Gawn, Riley, Salem, Terlich, Spencer, Matt Jones, probably some others, ask ...

Howe didn't do the whole session

Joked with Jade Rawlings that Nev Jetta would still want to play, he agreed

Drills were the usual ball movement , with more and then lless defenders, not split into any groups

Complimented Nathan Jones on his checkside pass to Hogan, said it was a fluke

Jesse Hogan again spent extra time on goal kicking, with vandenBerg and Newton

Watts spent a bit of time with Brendan McCartney and Ben Mathews on a tackling drill

Any questions feel free, few pics on Twitter Demonpk

Bit worried Dom might miss this week..

I didn't bother asking, you never get the truth during the season, he hardly missed a pre season session, so perhaps swimming and a bit of physio on a light day is better

Dom had trouble moving at the end of Friday's game. He had one leg strapped and was unable to chase effectively. This was late in the game. Hopefully it wasn't anything too serious. We are starting to eat into our depth.

Watts spent a bit of time with Brendan McCartney and Ben Mathews on a tackling drill

Hope it helps. He needs to learn to tackle with his body, not just his arms.

How was Michie?

Jack practicing his tackles, maybe a run with on Fyfe?

As I said it was a very light session, Michie was his usual self, doing everything with a minimum of fuss, complimented him on his game, said he enjoyed it

McCartney was very vocal during the drill with Watts encouraging, cajoling etc, I have put a pic on Twitter

I forgot to mention, looking at the pics reminded me, Roos took a backseat today, including leaving the field to talk to the camera guys and left the session to Goodwin

Was Jeffy practising his set shots?

Was Watts doing OK with his tackling drills, or not? Was it just him doing the tackling, or was it also about breaking tackles or standing up in tackles?

Any hints as to who might take on Fyfe?

Jeffy always practices his kicking, he got his 2 again on Friday

Watts was being worked over by Ben Mathews with McCartney talking to him constantly

No

Roos is back to his practice of last year, in pulling players aside during sessions to have a chat, noticed him do it with HL and Dunn

Watts' practicing his marking too?

They were also teaching him to avoid cheap shots as well

I'll put it back on the tracks, mentioned to Jesse Hogan that anytime he feels like taking a pack mark like he did on Friday he should, said he would give it a try, was bouncing around at training today

I reckon Roos may try Michie on Fyfe

Very worried about Tyson.

We are already batting well above our average this week.

Cannot imagine the team without him in it, weird its only his second year.

Didn't he have a collision with a goal post on Friday? he's probably suffering a bit of stiffness/soreness and being rested today. Still plenty of time to recover and I doubt he will miss out on Sunday.

I only put Tyson was missing because Mark Stevens and a cameraman were at training, so I wasn't giving away anything, there is no other open session till Friday, so we will see if he gets named on Thursday, as I said Jetta was missing as well and Roos keeps saying he won't play but Jade Rawlings told me Nev was in his face already to play, as you would expect

Michie was in good form at Casey and came in and played his role, if Tyson doesn't get up I wouldn't mind Riley coming in, he is in good form and like Vandenberg, Brayshaw and Michie doesn't mind the bash and crash, he only as to play a role

Thanks as always TDI.

Except at least one of those guys roles will be to get 25 touches, uses them well and win a bunch of clearances against Fyfe, Mundy and co.

If we play all of those guys in the same side we might have to work out how to leave the sprinklers on for a few hours before the start of the game.

yep agree with you Devil Man. Would be happy to see Riley. Tough nut who will maintain our new founded reputation for toughness and the contest.

Toughness counts for nothing if you're an average footballer. VDB and Brayshaw are showing more than just hardness, and I think that the wet conditions last Friday suited Michie, who is just a one pacer. I'd hate to see someone like Riley at the centre bounces. Tyson will be a huge loss if he doesn't play.
