Now can you please say that again in a coherent paragraph?

Was typing quickly on my phone

If you don't like it don't read it rather than being a [censored] and adding nothing to the topic

Tim Smith, when I asked him, said yes to him playing on Monday

JKH was also training, but didn't get the opportunity to speak to him

From team last week Kent,  Weideman and Bugg were not training

Hogan looks primed to repay, outstanding session from him

Thanks Saty, appreciate the training news

Pedo have his usual 'im gonna kill you' facial expression or did he seem more upbeat?  if Smith is in, I doubt he'll even make the extended bench

True. But I'm not sure you're the best example setter of that..

Interesting info though.

I would genuinely like to see Tyson dropped. Don't like what he's offering our side and bringing in JKH for him sounds about right.

Ins: Hogan, Hibberd, Smith and JKH

Outs: Weideman, Hannan, Tyson and ?

Has there been any suggestion that Kent is injured? I find it hard to believe he'll be dropped. While I didn't think he was particularly good last week, I also didn't think he played badly enough to be demoted. 

PS: Saty, I miss your training reports.

Apart from the 3 already mentioned none of the 'Casey' guys were there either, game tomorrow night

And none of the walking wounded

Lewis did whole session

Just the usual quick ball movement drills and a bit of one on one tackling, spoilling, marking etc

Hogan did about 10 minutes goal kicking at the end

Possibly Melksham (Hibberd to fill his spot)?

Keep in mind that of the guys being discussed following Saty's observations this morning, one will be the emergency (unless there's a plan for someone to play limited minutes in the VFL on Sat night and be the emergency on Mon night).  Perhaps the emergency is Smith given his ability to play tall / small / forward and back.

Me "Bull, are you in on Monday?"

Bull "Yes"

Also Club may have circumvented this with early call, but Hibberd left the track early with a TV cameraman following him halfway to AAMI.park, nothing in it

'Highlights' from training

Nathan Jones and Clarry continually niggling each other during the drills, fun to watch

Nev Jetta beating Hogan in a one on one with what seemed to a nice nudge with the foreman, Hogan loudly proclaiming it was hands and being shouted down, much to everybody's amusement

And Hogan sliding on his knees in the wet towards the fence and at the very last millisecond putting his hands up and grabbing the fence, there were a few minor heart attacks amongst players, coaches and watchers. He casually got back to his feet

Hibberd's left foot

Some of the ball movement at speed in the wet, hardly a missed target by hand of foot

If we are going by on what you saw today then it seems 

Ins: Hogan Hibberd Smith JKH

Outs: Weideman Bugg Kent ???

I wondet who the 4th out? Surely it has to be Hannan? 0 tackles last week and had 1 good Qtr.

I really hope Kent isn't dropped.. I understand that he could be inconsistent at times but blokes like Melk and Hannan have stunk it up even more this year. Games like this is exactly where i could see Kent turning it on.

AFAIK Weideman Bugg Kent Tyson Hannan named in the extended Casey squad - take your pick.

Saty, does Brayshaw have a close relationship to Jones as he did year 1? 

I saw them together at the shops a few weeks ago so I would say yes.

Having said that I would be surprised if players would change friendships much over their careers (Carey and Stevens aside).

Was at training no Bugg Weideman or Kent    Tim Smith and JKH both there  asked Bull directly and he said Yes, missed JKH   not giving anything away cameras everywhere and the Richmond guy   recognised him from the few times watched their training

Thanks mate. You mean Smith is a definite inclusion?

And is Kent injured -- saw him named for Casey.  Would be very disappointed if he were dropped especially if (Goody's mate) Melksham stayed.

Of course it could all be smoke and mirrors, who knows with Goodwin,

No team announcement till tomorrow, but would have thought you would have to do the session to be considered

Got absolutely nothing when I asked about Kent

 

So Jesse was there then?

The whole team needs to do at least 2 hours!

The whole team needs to learn to play 2 hours, in the one game!

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the
