Tmac first person out. Very early and very keen

Re Tommy M… amazing news I just heard. He’ll be fit for selection by round one. Pete is the head physio and he’d know.

Not a pleasant sight to see, Vines limping across from the rooms. And not just a slight limp, a prominent one. All good though, he’s just had an injection in his foot so it’s very tender. He’s here to support the boys.

Oh my god. Adam Tomlinson just arrived and now my day is complete. 🥹 He’s really happy and is looking in great shape. He came to watch training and hang with the boys for a bit

Is this the 'hotspot' foot that he has trouble in the past with?

Which Tommy M?

Hey Ghosty is El Jeffo back with the main group?

Viney is a veteran, which is the exact opposite of a tenderfoot.

Let's just be thankful he's not suffering from new hand or greenhorn.

Just arrived and Jeffo is indeed training with the main group.

Bowey and McAdam running along the boundary.

EDIT: not sure if it's been touched on before, but it looks like AMW is also in full training

EDIT EDIT: Now AMW is doing some individual drills. Might not be quite ready ready yet but doesn't look far away.

He is battling achillies issues.

agggh .. thats not much better. Hopefully just some minor tendonitis that he can work through..

Lever looks fit and over his ankle issues. Moving freely.

Boys are currently working on a some quick transition drills. Handpass to a moving player who kicks it to a player on the lead. Once they mark it they handpass it and so on.

All and all, nice skills on show. Not too many flubbed kicks. Both Taylor and Trelly Pickett know how to find a chest. Nice skills on show.

Hendo and Viney on the exercise baik baik sajas.

McAdam and Matthews rehab. Bowser labs. AMW pulled out of some drills.

Warm up exercises seemed really footy movement focused. Cutting hard after receiving handballs. Simulating a ground ball and burst from pack.

Then in to a couple of groups of figure 8 kicking. This was sharper than I’ve seen us for a couple of years.

Trelly balances up and has a bit of a hunched over technique but he gets the footy low and fast to team mates consistently.

Jeff Jnr has good skills, well done to the Suns academy coaches.

Boys have now donned pink or white bibs and habe split into three groups and are playing a game of keepings off. Handpass to players wearing the same coloured bib while the other colour applies pressure.

May wraps Trelly up with a big bear tackle. Welcome to AFL footy young man!

There’s an elaborate tree mulch top up operation in action. A lot of pipe. Dude on the end isn’t wearing a mask which concerns me.

He said it’s not serious. I’ve been lied to before as we all know well, but Jack doesn’t have a poker face. Ergo… it’s not serious.

Never mind the absence of a mask, how [censored] annoying is that thing?! It’s making my eardrums scream, and I can’t even hear them.

Ground split down the middle from goal.

Group A gets the ball in the back pocket and has to switch then take the ball up to score. Group B doing the same the other way. Group C resting. On pretty quick rotation.

8 on 5 so it’s not difficult. But focus on running hard to space and establishing a deep forward.

Trelly hands it off to Kozzy who nails a pinpoint pass to JVR in the left forward pocket.

JVR absolutely shanks the snap. Expletives follow.

I did think of going to switch off the truck.

Disco's skills have been great to watch so far today. Looks primed for a big'26 wherever he ends up playing.

CJ has been a bit off with his disposal by hand today. Looks better when he elects to kick.

Viney is the last person I would worry about carrying an injury. I’ve seen him on crutches at the races and still play the following week.

Let alone all the times his shoulder pops out and he just pops it back in himself and keeps playing.

Look at Oscar Mcinernny in the 2024 prelim when his shoulder went. He missed the Grand Final the following week. Viney would missed about 2 minutes
