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.

One on one opponents May vs Schache Petty vs Max Tomlinson vs TMac Lever vs JVR Disco vs Farris-White K Turner vs Jefferson

Dunstan has come off the track and is doing short sprints with a trainer to assess what’s going on. He’s returning to training now.

Hunter kicking high to one on one contests between tall forwards and defenders.

TMac’s on the run kicking has improved too. It cannot be underestimated how much we missed TMac late in the season for his work up the ground and in the 50m arc. He looks super fit.

JVR received a handball from Trac running through the middle at full pace and lace outs a beautiful long pass to Bowey on a lead.

There was almost a cataclysmic event as both Viney and Trac almost collided in a non contact drill. Both pulled up on time much to Viney’s disappointment.

Field has been split down the middle (length ways) and two half field match SIMs taking place sans tackling with players in yellow vest (changing) who are on both teams.

Bowey being tended to by a trainer. Something to do with lower leg, ankle or foot. He came off earlier but came back on. Trainer has left him and he has returned to the drill.
