Pickett is looking downright sinewy in some of those.  Not often sinews are a testament to good character but clearly we've got a kid who takes his training seriously here.

  • Demonland changed the title to TRAINING: Monday 15th March 2021
 

Brown looks like hes good to go,might be a smokey for rd1

Steven May with footy in hand is the best sight to see out of all those pics.

Looking at these photos no one can question whether Pickett trained in his time away. Looks really trimmed and fit.

Good. Because, without putting too much pressure on the kid, and at the risk of hyperbole,  i reckon kozzie is in our top 10 most important players.

Without him we are next to hopeless in terms of pressure inside our 50, which is one of the most important/impactful factors in footy. 

 

Kozzie is 19 and skinny, I'm not convinced photos alone provide any real evidence of how much training he did or didn't do. I also don't really care, he's back, he looks happy enough and his hair looks great.\

Good to see so many under the injury cloud out there.

Bowey's gone with the game day haircut.

No idea yet if he can play but Deakyn Smith looks like he'll be a very strong boy when he matures.

Is there something wrong with Bedford's handball technique?

I like that Yze is giving Viney advice. He could be the difference for our whole setup success..

It is good to see - I am positive that he has reams of advice for Viney - but will Viney be able to interpret what is said? 

 

Thanks for the photos DL. A couple of random thoughts on them:

  • I'm no doctor but May, Viney, Brown and Melksham look good to go
  • the photos of Kozzie in the air are a bit deceptive - he is actually 80 feet up
  • not sure why they are allowing hunt to kick
  • salem is gym shy 
  • Spallow look like he he is about to sort crying coz i cant get his name right

I agree. The best photos by far were seeing the group pay attention to Yze. No fingers exploring orrifices either

Melksham, Salem, Viney all training in footy boots.. 

That's a sign that they are close to playing.

That’s a big moth !

How many targets did he miss?

Theory...Tommy Mac’s marking is all wrong. His fingers are pointing up too much and he needs to wrap them around the ball more and let the ball come deeper towards his thumbs. Compare and contrast with Nick Riewoldt

Going from the pictures, Big Ben trained in sneakers, might not be ready to train in boots. Doesn’t look like he joined in the main session.

Could be wrong just my observation.

So true but as Richmond has shown, forward pressure is created by a number of willing participants.

They don't even have to be that good - Richmond's small forwards are all pretty average but they have a number of them that are willing to play the role.

I'm pumped for round one and I'm hoping - for the first time in recent memory - we choose three small forwards.

Again he has been considered diffficult to coach I got that from last years coaches.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #32 Tom Sparrow

    The rugged Sparrow’s career appears to have plateaued in recent years. He makes the side on a week to week basis but he is unable to establish a foothold in the team’s midfield and arguably performs best outside of the contest in a forward position without being a goal kicker. He remains a good honest foot soldier but is not a star.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

    Fullarton managed a couple of games in the first half of the season but soon found himself back in the VFL. There, he found a niche at centre half back but it was not enough to retain a place on the list at season’s end.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #35 Harrison Petty

    Entering 2025, it looked as if Petty would be secured in a defensive position, but plans shifted and he spent more time forward, averaging just over a goal per game throughout the season. It remains uncertain which area of the ground he will be expected to cover under the new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #36 Kysaiah Pickett

    The dynamic small forward, possessing an innate ability to generate excitement with his explosive play around the goals, successfully transitioned into a role that afforded him more time in the midfield. The club also negotiated a long-term deal with Pickett, thereby eliminating any prospect of a move west by their star young player.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #37 Kade Chandler

    For a few years now, he has been a reliable, hard working pressure forward, but in 2025, Chandler elevated his performance, becoming an integral component of the team with enough versatility to play effectively on a wing from time to time.
