From: Salem, JKH, ANB, Weids, Hibberd, May (all looking ok, ANB back in main group just dodged the match simulation drill)

Rest of injury list: Hannan had the knee tested, but continued in main group, KK going ok, No Petty, Lever off early, Lewis (Ok but susp). No sight of rest (too cold to bother)

On a completely different angle, how good is it to see that panel of quality sponsors behind Goodwin? All are big, international players (except maybe IG). Not only does it make us look like a professional club, but anyone who's new to the code seeing that panel should be in no doubt that this is a club of quality.

We need to start winning LDC or they will drop off. Sadly everyone loves winners, losers not so much.

Sigh...such predictable negativity...I would imagine they would completely understand the vagaries of Business ...matters that are sometimes just out of your control no matter how smart you are or how much talent you have ...I’m sure they can see the bigger picture ...to quote an oldie but a goodie ...”Rome wasn’t built in a day “  !

I hope we wait at least another week on Lever.

Not playing out the game on the weekend, it would be better if he had a bit more managed match time before coming in.

Having read the training report it seems he may have to hold off anyway.

There was nothing wrong with the weather

Thought the consensus on here was all AFL listed players shouldn't need to be coached to kick, they should know how to

KK has now gone the helmet, nice looking on as well

Lever was fine, running unhindered, could be all smoke and mirrors, assume it will be no risk policy

Any truth to reports Hore is looking likely to miss a few weeks? Few social media pages reporting this

Trained in the rehab group and was pictured with ice on the calf after training. Optimist says it's just a corky and he'll play. Pessimist says 4 to 6.

I watched him closely and while I have no medical qualifications or experience whatsoever I feel comfortable offering my opinion........

He trained the whole session but was only in rehab group, strapped calf, but moving pretty freely doing running drills. Finished up later part of session with some kicking to leading target ANB, and then some shots on goal.

If he had a strain and wasn't going to play then surely wouldn't have been out there or limited to just light exercise...?? It was sooooo frrrzzzziiinnn cold ❄️

My take was just getting the cork mobile, then obviously icing after training. I give him the all clear to play!...

I'm down to the last 4-6 applicants! ?

If you get the gig whatever you do don't agree to a medical exam from the club. They'll recommend surgery and you will stuggle to perform at your best for the next 12 months

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
