17 in the main squad.

4 in the light duties, Hibbo, McVee, Fritsch, JVR.

2 in rehab, Chandler and Verral

K.Turner doing his own program.

A morning game of soccer after some running.

Those who played for Casey aren't down.

Schache has damaged a right wrist, large black supprt on it. Came on the field late. Only marking with left, doing some work and kicking with a personal trainer.

All those on light duties, including Chandler have joined the main squad for skills training. 

They are looking sharp.

Now they are into longer runs, Chandler has stepped aside.

For someone who is apparently struggling with something, Chandler is playing bloody sensational football. Same goes for Fritta. 
 

JVR on light duties not a surprise. Wondering if he’s going to get a rest this week. He won’t make it to September without proper breaks.

Yep. Him and McVee could do with a rest within the next two weeks.

By " a rest " do you mean playing at Casey or just vegging out?

interesting to know who is more lethal shooting for goal Kade or Fritter. So good to have 2 sharp shooters in the forward line. Kade's field kicking is also fantastic. I don't remember him being as good at Casey.

Disappointing to hear about Schache. Looks like Petty is a straight in this weekend.

over the years I have noticed that while you may get more time to kick at VFL level you seldom get the same space as you do at AFL level.

Chandler is showing the knack of finding that space and it's paying off

Petty wasn't at training, which was a concern as well.

Given that Schache was still training, without using his hand, there is still a possibility.

He’s not out of concussion protocol yet so maybe that’s why he isn’t training?

Was Spargo training?

Sorry if this has been addressed before, but does the "Concussion Protocol" (which sounds like a rejected Jason Bourne movie title) mean that players are not allowed to train until the 12 day minimum period has expired?

Not totally sure but I think training is treated the same as a game.

This is probably the game to select him and make him sub for his 99th game for the Dees.

BOG for Casey and hasn't played a lot lately so reasonably fresh legs if called upon.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    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.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
