Spoke to soon with Petty. Yellow No Contact Hat is now on.

Culley doing warmups that don’t include contact.

Henderson has already head off to do rehab with the trainers.

I’ll update the other rehabbers once they break off from the warmups and training proper begins.

Love your optimism Ghosty but with a 30 year old who is averaging under 8 games a season throughout their career I'm not holding my breath.

Concerning!

Campbell has joined Bowser on the bikes.

shaneo participating in first drill

Petts is still wearing a no-contact hat because his latest concussion is his third and they’re being very cautious. He’ll be in full training in a week.

Often the rehabbers will participate in these warmup drills and then break off into their individualized programs.

Even if in the event that he gets fit, and manages to play a solid block at Casey, why would we play an injury prone 30 year old who won't be in our next finals push?

This is the player and the club going through the motions and honouring thier contractual commitments.

Drills proper have started and there aren’t any rehabbers out of the usual suspects. Salem, CJ, McAdam, AMW and even Culley are participating in the drills.

The big Russian Mark Jamar is taking Max, Heath & Kentfield for ruck craft drills in the middle.

Earlier JVR was having a one on one tutorial with Jamar and the ruck bag.

2 drills:

1. 8 vs 8 keepings off handball drill. (Mids/Half Forwards/Half Backs)

2. One on One marking drill. Ball kicked high to two players. (Taller Defenders/Forwards)

AMW, McAdam, Petty & Culley have split off from the drills as they are contact heavy and are working separately with a trainer.

i’m no doctor but salo and cj look good to go friday
