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

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.

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

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.

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 

Edited by DeeSpencer

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 


Spargo and McAdam doing laps with Conca.

Fullarton, Tracc, Chandler doing another stuff 

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

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 

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

I’m thinking jeffo will play round 1. 

JVR, Turner, Jeffo

fritch, macadam, chandler

interchange: melk 


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??

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. 

 

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.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
