Looks like very close to 100% attendance. Kelani is back. Same group in rehab.

For those not regular patrons to the training threads I assume the rehab group is as follows:

REHAB: Spargo, Lever, Lindsay & McAdam

[Damo 3,466]

Anyone know how long before Lever joins normal training? it does seem he stays in rehab longer than many, when injuried.

That’s probably because he seems to get more complicated leg/knee type injuries.

Haven’t laid eyes on Fritsch or AMW yet

A small group of the boys ran a time trial before training while I was killing time up the road at Coles 😭 Maybe another track-watcher was here at the time?

Noticing Nathan Bassett much more today. He is taking the main, full group ball movement activity, with Goody looking on. Bassett barking instructions constantly

Rando training player looks a lot like former cat Mitch Hardie

At Tracc’s first session back he was nervous and it showed. But that was then, now he’s yelling out encouragement and motivating everyone and not keeping a low profile. In particular, he’s very encouraging to Harvey. Tracc’s on the boundary watching Harvey and regularly calling out “that was great, Harvey!” The look of pride on Harvey’s face is priceless.

Also, Tracc isn’t holding back one iota. He tackles hard and gets tackled just as hard. Honestly, you wouldn’t know at all what happened to him merely six months ago.

Clarrie’s hand update: “it’s [censored] great!” He says it’s 100% back to pre-injury.

Parking meter beckons… chat later.

Match sim.

Lovely mark on the lead by Dees CHF Harry Petty 

(they’re playing with a backline of Judd and Windsor most of the key backs are rolling through a forward line).

Jed Adams nice run and receive on the next piece of play.

Bad Harry Sharp turnover kicking to Bowser.

Clarry and Tracc racking them up

It was reported that Rick had post season shoulder surgery.

He’s is recovering from a shoulder …was in a sling a month or so ago 

[DeeSpencer 26,692]

Bowser and Salo the 2 man backline now.

Moving fast with lots of diagonal stuff which is good to see.

Not always connecting to the forwards - nice Kalani intercept and spoil there - but Riv, Viney, Koss have all run the ball through the middle

He’s doing a lot of agility and very structured short running for a shoulder. Might be knee related shoulder surgery

That’s Mitch Hardy, a Casey player.
