The boys are all in their junior football guernseys. Some jarring sights here: Essendon, Richmond, Collingwood etc. guernseys. Tmac asked me if his jumper is too small (it is) but I said it looks fine. Nothing wrong with a belly hanging out from a jumper, right?

ok i think we need a photo of TMac please Ghosty :)

No MFC player should ever rock up to training in anything the resembles a filth jumper.

Name and shame GW.

Any interesting 'tree' people ?? 🤔

My boy Luker won’t be debuting this season. He’s not as disappointed as I thought he’d be. He said they don’t want him in his debut going up against Barrass and Battle, or Collingwood. LOL… they didn’t specify filth players, they must mean the whole side.

I’ll attempt it. The jumper is not only too short, it’s skintight as well. He’ll take out someone’s eye with his nipple.

He’s the one we should all be hoping has a healthy, massive preseason ! Round 1 awaits

I was keen to see him in the ones to get a look at him. But on reflection i'd much prefer he play out the season at Casy and continue his development.

Doing so also supports Casey finishing off the season strongly which i think has an outsize importance with all that has gone on. A strong finish by Casey puts a pep in everyone's step, partic if we also have a strong start to our AFLW season.

And it creates an opportunity for our young players to gel, develop their own game and have a shared experience they can carry forward in their time at the dees. Plus it creates an opportunity for Fullerton to continue to thrive down back which could be a lifeline for his AFL career.

@Ghostwriter do you know if Kolt, Sharp and Howes are eligible to play VFL finals (i'm assuming Cullley is)?

He saw me trying to sneakily take a pic so he pulled the jumper down, crossed his arms to keep it down, and breathed in…

Best colours/jumper in the country.

That is understandable.

I look forward to his debut next year, bigger and stronger.

Clarry in hoops is vomit inducing.

Tell him horizontal stripes are very unflattering please.

They’d all gone back to AAMI when I read this. I had a chat with Chocco right at the end and he’d know about this since he’s at Casey matches.

After training he put his arms out like someone who’s wearing a Demons jumper. I told him I can’t hug him in that revolting jumper so he said he’ll take it off. I weighed up a Geelong jumper hug vs a sweaty topless hug and went the sweaty topless hug route (I took one for the team). As I walked away he yelled out “GO CATS!” 🤬

Droppable offense. Hope you told Chaplin.

Fantastic stuff Ghosty. All present today bar Lever, Hore, McAdam and AMW.

Windsor present doing some light stretches, after his hamstring injury on Sunday.

As usual Tom Campbell didn't do much and looks to be carrying a lower leg or foot problem. Hendo coping with a groin issue - but I expect both of them still to be available for Casey.

Xavier Lindsay was running laps and did not join the soccer. Fritter also running laps and TMac did not do much. Good to see Sestan there.

The mood was certainly much more update than last week's Captain's Run.

We'll get the official injury report shortly.

Once Paddy Boy, always a Paddy Boy!

So I asked Luker to sign this jumper of mine in readiness for when he debuts (next season, but you never know)…

Before he signed it he was waving the sharpie around with a very serious look on his face. I asked him what he was doing. He said, “I’m practicing first, I wanna make sure I do it properly.” He was actually fresh-airing his signature. Bless. 🥹

Sounds a good management plan.

Keep him away from Moore’s knees.

Is that Turner in the tigers top behind kozzie’s right shoulder? How’re the pipes!

I want to see Bailey in a Big V jersey for real life - He looks ace in it.
