Professionally approached training. The coaches had the field well organized for drills with player skills and involvement abundant.

Light duties included, Jack Viney, Jake Melksham, Joel Smith, Mitch Hannan, Christian Salem and Tom Mcdonald. 

Vieing for the Jake Lever position looked to be either tall or small. Dion Johnstone, Sam Frost, Petty Harrison,  Harley Balic, Jayden Hunt,  Josh Wagner. All having exteneded training and being the last off the track. Along with Declan Keilty, Lachlan Filipovic and Sam Weideman.

The rehab squad was Cory Maynard and Dean Kent.

Simulations were well controlled clean football. 

Some goal kicking practice had video been taking for later analysis. 

Coaches stole the day with Max Rook absorbing the beautiful winter sun rays on his scalp with his new crew cut.

Did Cam Pedersen train? He had a nasty knock in the Casey game.

Cam was interviewed on a ‘competing’ Demons podcast on Monday. He said he was knocked out for about five seconds during the VFL game. Apparently the first time in his life he has been concussed and he has pulled up well, is training and available for selection. 

Apparently Goodwin has acknowledged to Cam that he is playing very well and banging on the door. He said Goodwin had some sympathy for his situation and that there will be injuries and form lapses amongst the players and so Cam just has to keep playing well. He was the Captain of the VFL side on Sunday. 

Cam also said that at this level the players aren’t as strong or fast and he thinks he has most players measure in a marking contest. 

He is studying to become a teacher and sounded realistic about his contract situation joking instead of a two year deal he thought a month to month deal more likely.

He seemed like a really good bloke. I hope he gets an opportunity at the senior level, through sheer weight of form, at some time this season.

Sad.

You never know. We could have a major injury and he ends up playing in a winning GF (to be clear, I mean with us, this year)

Sounds like he also has a healthy sense of humour, as well as a realistic appreciation of where he's at...!

On the contrary, I think it's terrific.  We have a bloke who loves the club and understands the situation he is in.  It sounds like he is enjoying his footy, is ready to contribute when needed and is going places off the field as well.  Can't ask for much more than that!

Agree, you can have cover players on your list, he is one. Vince has stated he would play as long as the club lets him, even if it meant on small wage and knowing only injuries or super form get him an afl game.

Pedos form also pushes Smith and Weids to higher requirements to stay in the team.

Wonder where that leaves him as a possible Lever replacement.

Not an issue - in the context of the MFC, "light duties" means changing the light globes in the gym.

Hence, the question how many MFC footballers does it take to change a light globe? (Answer is 6)

Joel Smith executed his part admirably and is still in the mix for Monday.

I would love to see Cam play in a winning Grand Final. He is that type of a bloke.

Pedersen also said about Goodwin

  • He doesn’t have an office and sits in an area with the other coaches making it easy to have ‘chance encounters’. “Goodwin doesn’t hide away in an office”. You can have a joke with him. 
  • He is unrelenting about being competitive. If you are not competitive then you won’t play in a Goodwin side. Cam said there were flashier players who could be playing but Goodwin wants good, honest contributors. 
  • Goodwin is big on the what you are outside the club, the ‘higher purpose stuff”

Cam Pederson continued with his usual run today

Ch 7’s Stevo said Mitch Hannan went off for scans today? For what I don’t know.

So, if Tim doesn’t make it it would seem a comp between Peds and Weed, though the more I think about it could Weeds go to “CHB” as much as such position exists today?

I actually think CHB is Weids calling, looked comfortable down there last game he played if my memory is correct, took some nice marks.
