Is he meant to? is there some planned training with the indigenous team?

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train.

Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

I doubt it’s that reason.

SEN interviewed Jace Burgoyne from Port and he indicated that training for the indigenous team would occur next week.

I think they’re just easing his load a little as he’s missing (yet again) the first 3 games and the team needs to put in structures and strategies without him.

Will check Freo website to make sure he isn't there already

[Go Ds 117]

Can't he catch up? Either do something at home, say if he has an exercise bike, or more realistically do a bit extra at the next few sessions?  If you get a chance maybe ask one of the coaches/staff today.

Don't tempt fate!

[GS_1905 62]

Maybe he is too embarrassed to face his teammates after the news story and called in sick.

Wait for the news sharks - “Amid deep divisions at MFC  Kozzie has already moved to Fremantle”

[DeeSpencer 26,171]

Back: May, Petty, Howes, Windsor, Salo

Mids: Gawn, Riv, Viney, Sparrow, Billings, Lindsay 

Fwd: Disco, JVR, Fritsch, Sharp, Langford, Langdon

Sharp busy, Langford found good space for 2 snags, Fritsch a class above, Disco with a nice grab. Salo with a lot of the best patches of ball movement with some Windsor moments too.

White backline: T Mc, Adams, Hore, Bowey, Sesto, AMW were under the pump.

[DeeSpencer 26,171]

Jeffo juggled contested mark on the wing, in to Andy, picks out the Yze lead to the picket who nails a tight shot under plenty of Viney sledging

I don’t think the Jeffo, Aj, Yze, Ricky Mentha, Roy George forward line will get a run at Afl level but they’ll be fun at Casey

His insta story seemed to suggest he is somewhere remote/outback with his family

[DeeSpencer 26,171]

Spargo and McAdam doing laps with Conca.

Fullarton, Tracc, Chandler doing another stuff 

McVee, Lever, Verrall and Kossie unsighted. Plus Kolt and Luker 

[Ghostwriter 3,080]

There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to get up and out from under “the pack” to get the ball and all I can see is that scene from Kindergarten Cop 

[DeeSpencer 26,171]

Shuffled the teams and pulled a few out so it’s opened right up. Clarry prolific, Langford still finding the ball. May has dominated defensively in both drills really.

Ollie Sestan is a lovely user at half back, not sure if the rest of his game will stack up but his kicking is lovely.

Jeffo (I’m watching closely) with a beautiful turn of pace, run through a couple of tackles and corridor kick 

[Roost it far 9,086]

These reports are coming in to slow

I’m thinking jeffo will play round 1. 

JVR, Turner, Jeffo

fritch, macadam, chandler

Hard to pay full attention with a 3 year old running amok but there were three clear standouts for me from what I saw: Fritsch, Windsor and Langford.

You call that a report??

[DeeSpencer 26,171]

Tall backs and Forwards did some marking work

Mids some rough stoppage on the wing stuff.

Laurie copped a nice one from Rivers in a tackle and went off with a blood nose 

Some different running, sprints for some, longer runs for others. Lindsay dropped by Bowey and Howes in a longer run.

Judd McVee is out there, did I completely miss him?

Tracc’s doing set shots. 

Yze, Culley, Roy and Mitch KS were the fill in players today. 

[Roost it far 9,086]

How did Roy look?

[Ditcha 681]

I attended some of the training session this morning. During match sim, I was very impressed by Fritsch, Windsor, Langford, and Billings. Trac still training on sidelines, but looks close to returning to main training. Meltsham was running laps in rehab due to hamstring injury. Spare and McAdam running laps.
