Welcome to Demonland. I'm not familiar with that membership and where those seats are but I'm sure one of the other posters will let you know. Go Dees.

I think he meant that there are no favourites with Goody and he will pick the best team/matchup for the opposition of the day. I'm not sure if this was something that was actually communicated to him or if it was just an opinion. I'm not sure if you can just pick a whole new team from week to week as there are so many factors and moving cogs.

I don't think he will be taking anyone's position. He'll be apart of a rotation. Just my guess.

I wouldn't read too much into it but Petracca was not doing the sprints. He was running and doing all drills. Edit: Earlier in the session he was off to the side with one of the coaches doing short sprints and in hindsight was obviously being assessed for something which is why he wasn't doing sprints with the main group later on.

They did a drill down the guts from goal to goal. They split into three groups. Blue jumpers, yellow tops and white tops. While blue and yellow were matched against each other, the white would have to sprint 200 or 300 metres and then have to swap with blue to go and defend against yellow whilst blue would do the sprint and so on. This went on for awhile so you were buggered when you got on the field to defend.

Was in the Midfield for all the positional drills.

One of the drills was set up to stimulate two forwards essentially getting the ball almost alone in the forward line and running into an open goal. That's probably an over simplification but it was heavily weighed to two forwards (usual a 2 on 1 situation) getting the ball on a rebound and running into 50. Playing as alone defender with the odds stacked against him Lever was able to get back quick enough to effect an intercept spoil and on another occasion also tackle an opponent and stop a certain goal. He will change our team.

Towards the end Garlett was running laps hard and at a very quick pace.
