Gus I full contact tackling drills - doesn’t look concerned one iota.

Colt as his namesake, breaking tackles and looking powerful. 

Lever looking unhampered in movement but Petty a little unconvincing. May has a spring in his step and looks to be gliding over the ground…

Next drill is a kicking drill where numerous lines from half back handball or shot kick through centre square with minimal defensive pressure. Coming into HF with quick play ons and ultimately a kick into f50 to leading forward. Clearly a focus on quicker ball movement and lowering the eyes into the forward line. 

Maysie caught my eye again with his agility and unimpeded movement 

And now a shower!

Petts doing all the warm up.

And they’ve locked off the grandstand for the comfort of the supporters😀🤪

Lever doing all drills. 

Very much appreciated those of you venturing out there to let us know, its very fresh and almost chilly up here in Elwood.

If anyone can find out what's up with Jefferson, that would be great. Bit concerning he's been in rehab for a number of weeks now.

In the match sim right now. So maybe just fitness - actually I don’t think it’s him. One of the other tall lads I’m not familiar with #43

Mach sim time. Blues vs whites. May (whites) finding hard to exit d50

Chandler two nice goals to commence match sim in the first 4 minutes.

Blues 13 to 0. Trac gets a back half turnover and powers through -handball to outside and JVR assist to chin for a goal. This is full intensity.

At the appropriate time I'd appreciate any comments on the intensity and how it compares to the last few years.

THE macdaddy gets the whites on the board with a snap from congestion.  

McAdam with an opportunistic snap and goal for the white team.

Trac with a regulation set shot goal from 45 in front.

Laurie a lovely set shot goal from the boundary on the back of a good contested mark from McAdam who passed it to him.

Laurie another for the whites with a mark snap from deep f50 on the boundary after a short pass from the McAdam.

ANB mark and play on goal in a similar style to Gawn in game against Geelong in PF of ‘21.

The goal kicking has been elite today so far. Nibbler with a mark and play on goal from 45 or so.

4.1 to 2.0

May it continue.

 

 

TMac’s hairstyle is just awful.

Fritta with a beauty contested mark after a blues contest with on the wing. Caleb took a two tackles getting to Trac on the outside who the delivered a bullet to Fritta who slotted it through for the Blues 6th.

Young male horses break tackles?

Brayshaw isn’t wearing a helmet. That’s the intensity. They play at full pace but not much physicality.
