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.

I would be incredibly disappointed if Kent is dropped.

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.

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

Could Tim Smith play the Vandenberg forward role?  He looked good playing up the field on the weekend for Casey, not sure he has the tank though

Tim Smith playing....?

So are Hogan and Hibberd confirmed to be the ONLY two ins? Thought Pedo would get a run with 32 touches, 15 hitouts and a goal playing FF for Casey

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? 

Yes he does, but wasn't there today, all the mids seem to get on really well, Clarry loves to niggle, only one he leaves alone is Viney surprisingly

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.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
