How is your opinion “hard facts”??

You have no clue Bluey Sestan has only just started his third year, and it is hard for him to replace Hore given he got moved to the backline about 4 months ago Kentfield is 19 and hasn’t even been at the club 12 months, of which 2 months he was seriously ill… Recruiting blunder?? Pfffft Verrall is a 21yo developing ruck behind the GOAT. Expecting him to debut by now is the only head scratcher here…. Not sure you understand the concepts of patience and player development. These players may not make it, but it’s much too early to know

Correct Given that Round 4 is Friday and “this week”, then next week is Round 5

Training finished at 11.30. A stock standard session with things of note Lindsay did warm up drills then did running with Jefferson. I can see both of these two playing next week Culley Spargo McVee and Tholstrup did full training including match sim. These guys must be only a week or two away Lever didn’t train. May be resting for Captain’s run Windsor and Bowey as main distributors off half back Turner back in the A forward line, Johnson to the B. Expect this to be a selection change Sharp might be omitted I think Rivers is staying with the backline unit As u would expect, plenty of focused drills on centre square drills. Expect to see the following in there on Friday night Petracca Oliver Pickett Viney Langford Sparrow Langdon / Billings purely on the wings I may be biased… but my god Tholstrup had mongrel and talent. He was roughing up Oliver and Viney with full encouragement by Goodwin to do so. Expect to see #19 and #12 as prime midfielders once we hit 2026

Laurie trained with the B team

Kolt in full training so far, as to Culley Jefferson in rehab but marking and doing well

I’m out at Casey now. Happy to report and answer questions Lindsay and Campbell first on track, both doing a fitness test with conditioning staff Lindsay moving reasonably well, sideways movement and light ball handling looking ok

Spargo and McAdam the natural Kozzy replacements, both n/a. Hence why Henderson and Sharp will spend time in the fwd line. The existing depth is there, just not for Rnd1

No, those three names won’t be playing. For ease of understanding, Jeffo replaces Turner in selected on field team Bench is Langford, Lindsay, AJ, Henderson and Sharp. One of these likely sub

Been told that Turner has been left out of team. Was named “on-ground” last night because if they had named Jeffo or AJ then the surprise of their debut announcement would have been ruined. All debutants got told this morning JVR, Jeffo, AJ are the 3 key forwards T-Mac, Billings and Turner are the emergencies.
