Hello, hello, a whistle's blown and there are boards out. Could this be a sign that the game's about to start?

West

[Whispering_Jack 30,188]

Petracca just had a casual shot at goal from 60 and slotted it. They're doing simulated match play and the Truck started on the bench but is now on the ground. JT marks to the applause of the 73,000 crowd (more or less).

Bull no shots on goal

King drops what he shoulf have clunked and stretch clears

Jkh to king unmarked  goal

[Whispering_Jack 30,188]

They're stopping the game every few minutes to interchange. The plays going up and down the ground and Petracca's doing a lot of running. Just got the ball and hand passed well to advantage.

[Redlegs Too 106]

How is JT going please?

[Longsufferingnomore 1,631]

WJ/Dino - are there many there watching

[boydie 655]

Forgive my ignorance but is match simulation literally players kicks ball to player who is unopposed then has set shot on goal?

Or is there actually competition to win the ball and contest a mark etc.

[Whispering_Jack 30,188]

JT has had a few touches and looks very composed (actually Wagner does too).

I didn't hear a siren but they've all stopped and are in a huddle.

[Bells 155]

Thanks for the updates.
Any video cams there?  Would be great to see some footage - Do you think it is being recorded?

JT takes a nice mark to kick things off in the second stanza.

Players are changing jumpers so it's a bit confusing. Heritier's been in both red and blue and has been sublime in defence. Stretch and ANB doing some nice things and Petracca just marked and set up a goal with a long pass.

[dino rover 714]

Jt ooks good

[jayceebee31 761]

Yes - see above.

Doing well -the players are back in the middle so it's probably half time. Just to add to the excitement, some of the players are now putting on green vests.

Please don't ask the score. The scoreboard here isn't operating.

Yep! Beautiful kick, good vision, addressed the troops and took a great sliding mark in front of goals to the delighted onlookers. He will be 22 when fit

Great job guys- no doubt appreciated by all...

 

[Whispering_Jack 30,188]

Back to doing drills. The Reds just played the green vests and now the Blues v Reds. The Foxtel replay is going to be fascinating.

[Redlegs Too 106]

Thanks to all of you for your commentary. 

[Whispering_Jack 30,188]

Nice goal to Brayshaw. He and Heritier in particular look in fine fettle. They would be playing tomorrow if I was a selector. Truck getting lots of it now.

[Whispering_Jack 30,188]

The Weed marks and goals from 50.
