Kye Turner signing papers handed to him by List Manager Tim Lamb

Two other drills on the other side of the field but I can’t tell what they’re doing. Actually one of them appears to be a ball-in drill simulating once the ball is tapped down and each player involved has his turn to mop up the ball once it hits the ground.

May, Rivers, Lever, JVR, K Turner, Disco Turner & Tomlinson are just having the ball kicked to them individually on a semi lead by Chaplin

Jefferson vs Farris-White in contest marking contest taken by Stafford.

A snap for goal from the boundary station. One on one marking contest either in the air or to a lead. Trac vs Viney and Harmes vs Sparrow.

Lots of mini drill stations set up around the ground. One of them has ground ball contests between a big and a small. TMac vs Spargo and Schache vs Chandler.

Hunter’s delivery all around the ground (with the exception of one howler) and especially into the forward 50 is pinpoint.

Schache not playing as a key forward. Playing up the ground possibly replacing Grundy who is absent today as ruck positionally.

Hard to tell because all the play is generated from full back ie: almost like from kick outs but not in terms of being set plays from kickouts. Playing today in the half back to half forward arc closer to the boundary.

If JVR doesn’t mark it his follow up work is top rate. He doesn’t stop trying to win the ball and his ground work is fantastic for a big man. A lot of power in the hips.

Rivers disposal into the forward line is beautiful.

Maxy’s marking is top shelf.

Spargo’s tackling work is mint. Sparg’s was often used as a link up along the wing and would look to bring it back in board with his clean & accurate disposal.

It really doesn’t need to be said as we’ve seen it last two seasons but Langdon’s work rate from deep in defence, up the wing and deep into the forward line is just phenomenal.

As I’ve mentioned every training session I’ve been to Kozzy is a magician in traffic. I would hire him to navigate my way up Punt Rd in peak hour.

Trac just makes it look so easy with his lateral movement in traffic. So much power.

JVR has kicked a couple of goals getting out the back of his opponent when a high long ball has come in from fifty and he has waltz the ball into goal.

Hunter despite the broken nose is taking part in the SIM albeit with the flouro hat.

Full ground match SIM underway

Split into two groups for the keepings of handball drill with tackling and a yellow vest player in the middle playing for both teams. Tackling intensity his high.

Some of the one on ones from the key position players had the players start with their back to the kicker so they were going into the contest blind.

Petty took a great contest chest mark on TMac

Disco Turner out bodying young Jefferson

Max vs Tommo now.

Mids doing a similar one on one contest drill but when the ball spills two others are at the fall of the ball contesting the spill.
