Demonland

A lot of the drills involve having a high ball kicked and the player just bringing the ball to ground intentionally and the players mopping up.

Schache being used as the leading forward down the guts or leading towards goal for the overlap.

Two targets in one of these drills are Petty & Fritsch so yeah Petty is forward.

If for some reason Max isn’t deemed ready then Schache will be the one that plays.

Team has split into two groups and doing a drill along the wings ending up kicking into the a player 15m out of goal. Main players from either group being that player are Schache, Petty, JVR, Max & Grundy.

It’s effectively a captain’s run so they’re just doing light drill work at the moment.

Only Laurie & Schache of the emergencies are training (that I have seen)

Interestingly Spargo is training with the main group.

Lever, Hibberd and Max all moving well.

Kozzy has arrived

Viney with knee strapping, Hunter, Trac, Max, Grundy, Langdon, Laurie, JVR, Fritsch, Petty, Nibbler, Schache, Chandler, Hibberd, Sparrow, Jordon.

Clarry is here

Brayshaw and May are in the building.

Salem doing some work with Selwyn Griffiths

Players trickling in. Lever, McVee, Rivers, Bowey

Joel Smith & Charlie Spargo are in the Choco Williams goal kicking academy.

I’m at training this morning and will provide running commentary of any observations of who is in rehab and who is or isn’t training.

I think Geelong now legally own Sydney

I say move it to the G and still give us the half a mill

Melbourne will give star midfielder Clayton Oliver every chance to prove his fitness ahead of Monday night’s Anzac Eve clash with Richmond after he missed the club’s main training session on Friday, due to flu-like symptoms. The Demons kept Oliver away from the main group as a precaution as he trained on his own on Friday afternoon. The players have a day off on Saturday, but Melbourne hopes Oliver will be back with the main group for its captain’s run session on Sunday. The Demons look set to regain Max Gawn, Jake Lever and Michael Hibberd for the big Anzac Eve clash, while coach Simon Goodwin said Angus Brayshaw could have some more midfield minutes against the Tigers.
