They are out for a run just as it starts raining. It didn't last long, ended up a reasonable session weather wise. 

Light duties, BBB, rehab Farris-White, Melky, Salem and Spargo, all with private trainers.

They are all playing soccer, huge amount of noise.

36-40 (difficult to get a count) in the main squad, biggest I've seen it in ages.

Choco is barking out the orders. Goody has intense body language as he observes.

Bowey in a lime green cap (no contact), and in the sims.

Oliver is ball handling, required some re-taping after the first drill.

McVee, McAdam, and AMW step away from the main squad, and are now with the trainers (light duries, goal kicking and easy laps). Melky joins the main squad.

They are now into full field drills. Precise kicking, hard calls, drive the ball through the centre, and run. They rotate through the whole area, goal to goal, and both wings.

Structured sims now. 9 against 18. 

Woey in the backline.

Sims finish, and McVee, McAdam, AMW, join the group again.

Salem, Spargo do easy, repetitive 200 metres runs.

McQualter has them in the middle, chatting away, Chaplin then does some demonstrations. May and Goody chip in. They appear to be getting into the nitty gritty.

They break, some continue talking, some off to kick goals (16 of them), others leave the field, the low ball getters as well (Laurie, Vines, Rivers, Howes, Sestan, Woey, Hore).

Goody one on one talk with Langdon. 

Choco with the goal kickers, mainly Fullarton. Then Tracc goes over for some tips but Choco stays with Tom.

Oliver on the boundary by himself, sprinting. Now hard running laps.

Choco now with Sparrow for some 45 metre goal kicking. 

Last out there is Petty and over walks Choco to help with his goal style kicking. Takes them from all the angles. Hits most of them.

Just noticed Viney, still working with a trainer, as well as Melky and Salem.

Oliver still lapping.

Oliver after laps, he did some sprints, and more laps. Ended up on his haunches,  gathering wind, a trainer comes over and they do a slap handshake. He finishes by picking up the equipment with the crew.

It is nearly all packed up, except Salem still running laps.

Had a chat to to one of the crew, reckons McVee is fine, just light duties, and they have a main session Sunday out at Casey.

Salem and Oliver walk off together.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 20 vs GWS

    CONSISTENCY by The Oracle

    "I think we have got a team that can win a premiership, and if we get in this year, I don't think there is a team that is going to want to play us. This year is not a write-off, I don't concede that. Not at all." — Collingwood President Jeff Browne. I love this sort of optimism from the Magpie President after his club’s eleven goal defeat at the hands of the fast rising Hawks. It’s consistent with the fighting spirit of the club that won last year’s flag.  I only wish I could say the s

    FEARS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne’s worst fears about the absence of Max Gawn were realised when it received a shellacking from Fremantle’s ruckmen Sean Darcy and Luke Jackson who dominated the hit out tally in their game at Optus Stadium on Sunday by a massive 47 to 19. As a result, the 50-point deficit at the end of the game proved to be a loss that was long foreseen that was two years in the making and demonstrated a complete lack of hindsight and planning from the club. To add insult to injury, Jackson was a D

    PREGAME: Rd 20 vs GWS

    The Demons return to the MCG in Round 20 to take on the GWS Giants and will be hoping the injured Captain Max Gawn is fit to return to his role in the ruck as their season is slipping away. Who comes in and who comes out?

    RAIN CHECK by Whispering Jack

    The Frankston Dolphins broke a run of six straight losses against their neighbours, the Casey Demons and kept their hopes for a long-awaited return to the VFL finals alive with a 27 point victory over at Kinetic Stadium. Casey was welcomed to the Peninsula by grey skies, heavy rain and angry seas with threatening white-capped waves whipped up by gale force winds. After a slow start in the opening term when they failed to take advantage of the breeze, it appeared that the Demons had decided

    GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs Fremantle

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a golden opportunity to stamp their 2024 finals credentials as well as make amends for their disastrous first meeting against the Dockers earlier in the season when they take on Fremantle at Optus Stadium.
