Training - Friday 1st May, 2015

Featured Replies

I spent a few minutes down there this morning and saw tyson getting his knee rebandaged. He still looked a bit proppy to me but seemed to participate in everything.

They spent all the time I was there playing a handball game of footy with 6 teams - 2 groups of 3.

2 groups would try to move the ball and score a goal with only handballs. This would go on for around 7 mins and then 1 team would go off and rest whilst the 3rd team would come on.

Having not seen much training I'm not sure whether this is done regularly but it looked pretty slick with fast movement, some good tackling, mostly clean hands etc. Maybe this is our strategy to break through Freo's strangulation defence. Most of the players are adept at lifting the arms before being tackled and dishinig off a handball. Targets were well hit. I did see Toumpas fumble quite a few times but it might havejst been whilst I was watching. Others who saw the who session might have a view..

It was stunning morning and the players looked like they were enjoying the workout and running hard.

 
 

Only thing I am really [censored] off about, will be at the G on Sunday, so miss the chance to see Stretch, Toumpas, ANB and Harmes working together for the first time

Not prepared to trust your lovely lady to do the Casey-watching for you?

I find this strange. Maybe they will give Dawes and Pedersen some training privately.

Or we are actually planning to play Spencer and Jamar in the same side (yikes).

Sounds like we will if the Jamar interview this morning on SEN is a guide.

I guess we'll know soon.


Gee everybody is so excited about Sunday they missed another important bit, Viney is only a week away from a return to footy

Round 5 injury report said 2-3 weeks. Hopefully its sooner but I assume he needs at least 2 full weeks of training before playing

They have been doing this drill for about a month now, I only saw Dawes getting restrapped, must have been on opposite side at the time, Tyson was fine I asked, he did the whole session, would have thought if there was an issue he wouldn't have

PS I didn't speak to any players. :)

Why not?

She'll be at the G as well, Jeffy being the new favourite

That was the Viney quote, probably going to convince them, he looked fine running round the paddock

 

Too risky if you get an injury.

My guess is because it's Sandilands and Clarke they'll go with Spencer. If it rains they might go for Riley. Brute contested ball winner in the wet. thn

I think Spencer Jamar combo is something Id like to see us live with this year.

If we can win in the middle and provide another, admittedly mediocre, tall option forward, its a team that would be tough to play against for many teams.

We cant keep hoping the Russian can do it on his own.

Spencer is as ready as he is going to get. Exciting.

Irrespective of the line up on Sunday, we need to start giving match time to either Spencer or Gawn. Either they develop or we trade for a ready to go ruckman, but either way its a priority

Early in Jamar's career, when White was our No.1, he spent a lot of time riding the pine. I think his development was delayed by Daniher's neglect. I don't have a clue what Roos' plan for our ruck development is, I just hope he has one. Frost might turn out to be a serviceable backup, but that's not enough.


How did viv move? No problem after being proppy last few mins of the game?

Appatrently got some physio

Wow! Love the way Jesse is trying to rip that guy's arms off with his head!

Agree, it's a priority. At this stage I think we will be looking outside but it's still a long season ahead and plenty of time for Gawn & Spencer to stake a claim.

Sorry should have been on the Jesse Hogan thread


Anyone know if Trenners has started running again yet?

No, but Anderson Hill next to the Botanic Gardens is his new training track, walking up and down that

Michie was fine

Young King is developing nicely, and they are making sure he can play forward as well, kicked about 6 or 7 goals in the practice games and the 2 Development matches he has played in

Spencer may have been around for ever but he is still only 25

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
