Apart from a raucous soccer match, not much to report since I spent almost the entire session (all 20 minutes of it) with the most delightful gaggle of 14yo schoolgirls. Their energy was electric. Their teacher, Mr Hawkins, said they were hoping to get a selfie with Max. I said leave it to me. They ended up getting selfies with Max, Clarrie, Tracc and Kozzie and several others. Were they excited? You betcha!

The mood was upbeat and positive. No Kev or Wallbanger so likely no decent training report. Soz @Roost it far

Actually, not Soz. The school kids had such an amazing effect on everyone. They were standing a fair way from the tent so I went and brought them over and everyone was smiling, such was their infectious enthusiasm. The players, the coaches, other spectators, everyone.

Did you tell Kosi that we are all waiting over here holding our breath, and we might be dead soon?

I was there Ghosty - we thought you were just blanking us because you were all over the coverage on Monday - maybe Kosi not the only one considering a significant contract?

My report just filed elsewhere - I am sure the administrators can merge them....

I told him I know he’s already signed. He smiled and said “Have I?” Then he laughed. I told him it’s mean to keep everyone waiting. He said, “Nah, it’s all good.”

you are a gem my little sheet rack

A full attendance for the light recovery session today and great to see AMW also present and in good spirits. He mentioned to us that he has been building up his upper body given the significance of his knee injury.

Viney had the glove on his hand and was doing one on one work with a trainer. Oli Sestan also doing particular work, given his slight hamstring strain, which kept him out of the Casey game.

Spargo, Lever, Hore, Melksham, Campbell and Henderson all seemed to be doing only light work and did not join the (gulp) soccer game.

More goal-kicking practice, and Trac - becoming a bit of a theme - was last off the track.

Our general observation was that the results were "mixed".

Yeah there’s a captain’s run at Adelaide Oval on Saturday. It’s an open session. We haven’t been told what time it starts but I can post it here when we find out. It’s usually in the early afternoon.

Thanks again Ghostwriter, Harvey Wallbanger and all posters, that was great GW that you were able to arrange for the selfies for the visiting school group.👍😁

Time stamp please 😁

I'm 0-2 in my "this might be a weird question but are you known elsewhere as Ghosty or WCW?"

I am not Ghosty. Ghosty can elaborate on the Ghosty/WCW connection...

What connection? There is no connection. No one knows anything. You can't prove it. I know nothing

Captain’s run tomorrow at Adelaide Oval beginning at 2:15pm. It runs for 30 minutes and there’ll be autograph/selfie opportunities afterwards.

Apparently I was on the giant screen at the ground several times, but I don’t think the footage is included in the replay.

Harvey Wallbanger is not Ghosty/WCW. He knows G/WCW and they’d probably be friends except he brings coffees and pastries for his cohort and not for G/WCW 🤨

95% chance of rain (6-10mm) tomorrow, so best you bring an umbrella.

Significantly better for gameday: 60% chance (0-1mm).

We’ll be located behind the goals at the hill end (Bay 146) so feel free to come and grab a flag or a prop before the match 👍🏽
