Tom Sparrow

Thanks. 

Hopefully he is ok for preseason

Where to begin?

Firstly Maysie was here but didn’t train. I was talking to Chocco who told me No Spaz, No Leb this week. He said Leb is probs right to play but they’re “looking after him for next year.” Then he said, “Maysie’s looking good though.” I said, “Will he be playing this week?” He says, “Should be. Here we go, let’s see what he thinks!” Maysie happened to be approaching us. Chocco says, “WCW here wants to know if you’re playing on Friday. Maysie very eloquently said, “fckn oath I am!!!” 😂

I was chatting with Keith (Tracc’s physio). We talked about how happy the boys were to have Tracc there today. He agreed and said, “And Christian is just as happy to be with them.” We talked about how quickly things can turn 180 degrees and basically who’da thunk?! He obviously didn’t tell me details of this morning’s team meeting but he didn’t have to… another guy who’d be cr@p at Poker. 😁

Then I told him how awful it is that Tracc being here probs won’t even make the news since it’s a good news thing. Keith pointed to a reporter being filmed reporting on the session. He dared me to tell them what I think about their gutter journalism. Not one to ever back down from a challenge, I did exactly that. The reporter’s name is Adrian and he’s with channel 10. Spewing it wasn’t Tom Morris, but then I would’ve been the top news story tonight for all the wrong reasons. 🤪 He said they were gonna meet with their producer etc. and work out which way to approach the reporting. Fear not fellow Demonlanders, Adrian was told in no uncertain terms how WE believe today should be reported. And if I’m not mistaken, I believe he may’ve peed his pants a little. I may be small, but [censored] with my team and I’m effectively 10 feet tall.

Speaking of height, no Claz today so I walked to AAMI with KFW. I asked him what his official height is and he said he still hasn’t been measured but he thinks he’s 6ft10 😳 He said when he stands next to Max he feels like he’s the same height as him, “sometimes a little taller.” Again… 😳 And yes, I said that might just be because of his hair coupled with Max’s lack of.

Finally, when everyone had left Tracc was lightly jogging/walking  around the boundary with Selwyn. As he passed I said, “Hey Tracc, just want you to know we all love you.” He said, “Cheers, thanks for that.” with a smile that could stop world wars. Then I met another spectator who reads DL but doesn’t post, a lovely lady, We chatted for a bit and in that time Tracc came past again. I said, “Hey Tracc, just want you to know nothing’s changed since I last told you… we still all love you.” He laughed and said, “Awesome! See you next lap.” 😂

In summary, a fantastic session. The mood was incredibly good. The quiet achiever aka Goody had a look of pride on his face that was heartwarming and I hope to keep seeing it.

This is a great insight into training and your interactions.  It has made me smile

Tell Keith the next you see him that he looked better in purple.

You are a national treasure.

I will tune into channel 10 news for the first time in a decade to see Adrian quivering as he delivers the news that the MFC is the happiest place on earth.

😂 Tommy Sparrow. I personally don’t like calling him Spaz but his mum told us that’s been his nickname for a long time and he won’t hear of changing it.

I won’t be able to watch it 😭

can you please post what they say about it please?? Interested to know which way they spin this.

I see Sesto in the back of that video? Any info on why he didn’t play for Casey on the weekend?

VFL guys still on deck? Obviously the young guys have to be but if I was BBB, Hunter or Schache and not getting a fair well I’d skip the training.

Melbourne fan threatens reporter for saying bad things about her club. Coriander was exchanged. Things got nasty.

Tom Morris over and out.

You know how you see/hear stories of someone coming “back to the fold”?? Yeah well today was a perfect example of that. A seamless return to the fold.

So I'm led to believe Tracc is staying and all is right in the world? If so he really needs to come out and say it.

They were there. BBB was on the stationary bike and had one knee strapped. Weasel (Schache) trained. No sign of Hunter but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t there. He’s proved to be the invisible man of late.

Sad hugs for BBB. What an incredible human being he is. Awkward hugs with Jeffo since I reflexively recoiled when I felt how sweaty he was. 🤭

Will he report on the scary looking lady that approached him during filming? 🤣🤣

Apologies to @dazzledavey36 who said the boys call Judd “Silk” to which I replied “No they don’t, they call him Knuckles.” The large-knuckled boy himself said he gets called both names, he likes both names and wait for it… he doesn’t mind either name, he’s just “happy to be in the team.” Blesssssss 🥹 I can sense Luci tearing up right now. 😁

He knows better than to do that. 😉

I wonder if he's on afl360 anytime soon. That would be worth the price of admission

Leb sans moonboot. He’s rapt to have given it the boot (see what I did there?!) He’s one on one with a physio.

No Spaz here. He’s now in a moonboot and won’t be playing on Friday.

Chin running laps around the boundary  

Tracc also one on one with a physio. 

The boys are absolutely loving it that he’s here. Like, really really happy. A lot of laughing and mucking around with him. Judging by this the team meeting went very well.

 

Surely we have more than one moonboot??

Although it could explain why Maxy had to get out of the moonboot so early. 🤔
And thanks, I think I now know why so many people are commenting about herbs. I think.
