A very worthy cause. Well done Ben. If you can spare some cash please donate. Ben Brown's Chop the Mop for Challenge

Since they last won a final. They played finals in 2021.

Sarcasm aside Grundy was Pick 18 (2012), Schache was Pick 2 (2015) & Hunter was Pick 49 (2012).

I was told that it was an honest mistake. I will take them at their word. And yes the proof will be in the pudding eating.

For what it's worth I was told that procedures have been put in place to ensure that it won't happen again.

The club has acknowledged that it was an honest mistake and have personally apologised.

I expect a full report from you.

I have spoken with the club just now in regards to this and they apologised profusely about the miscommunication about training. It was an honest mistake and are genuinely apologetic that some supporters travelled long distances and were put out by the mistake. If any one who was affected by this (actually going to Gosch’s not waiting for a report on here — admin) and want to take it up further with the club please contact them through the membership department.

PICKET FENCE'S TRAINING REPORT REHAB Clarry, Max, Farris-White, Melky, Matt Jefferson, Jakey Lever, Joel Smith & 1 Other I couldn't place. Glad to see the Club being ultra cautious with Clarry's thumb BUT the fact he is still troubled with it is worrying (God I hate Selwood) Got there at 10.50 to see Full match Simulation Game between the Blues and the Whites. Quite clearly the Blues were the A Team and the Whites were the possibles. Some interesting faces in the white Team headed by JvR and on todays form I couldn't pick him for a place in the ones just yet. James Jordon also in White team as was Michael Hibberd and Josh Schache . Saw about an Hour and 15 of solid match sims. A few takes. Ben Brown was in SCINTILLATING form. he must have kicked 5 or 6 goals gave about 3 away. Took strong marks in pack and on the lead. Completely overshadowed Adam Tomlinson who although tried was just outmanoevered. HE IS A LOCK FOR ROUND 1 IMV. Brodie Grundy was all over it like a flock of angry seaguls fighting over a legless prawn. His ruckwork was great and his run and carry and work below his knees was flawless. Bayley Fritsch was also in scarry good form kicking some goals and cleverly placing himself in irresistable and dangerous positions. Lachie Hunter He is going to be a weapon and a half with his Run and carry up and down the wing and Flawless disposal. James Harmes, Jack Viney, and Kozzy were just phenomenal in the midfield and just racked up disposals at will. Charlie Spargo complemented the run and carry of the mids and was involved in several chains which resulted in Goals. TMac was a little quiet by his standards but still imposes and with his hi end run and leads created many opportunities. Jake Bowey playing in the Blue team was impassable across half back and his disposals were alway creative and on the money smart. Looks to have maybe beaten Hibbo for that HBF spot perhaps. The defense of May, Harrison (THE HEARTBREAKER) Petty were frugal and meaner and madder than a mosquito in a manikin factory. Kade Chandler also played for the Blue team and he was busier than a one armed man trying to hang a picture! Kicked some opportunistic goals and was really involved. Thats about all I have and I'll be back at Casey next week with another Blockbuster trainin. I hope this mini report makes up somewhat for all you Landers that went to Gosch's which would also have infuriated me!

Was traded to Essendon in the Weideman trade. * * kidding

This reads like a Tom Browne both sides of the fence to cover all bases comment.

We get the most reports on the Wednesday Open Sessions at Gosch's. Seems like today would have been a bounty.

FWIW I checked today before I went to training this morning yet here we are.
