Too Predictable
I think he is getting extra attention as sides have worked out that if you stop him you dry up our scoring options. Will be worse without Tracc to swing forward for periods. Was certainly getting extra attention at the Gabba.

I'm talking over the next year or so. Not saying he won't get games till then, but his impact will be better.

The Kalani White Thread
Bottom age tall already playing at the champs while not draftable until next year, a further 18 months of growth and development away? Who is telling you this?

Think that will be remedied in time. Looks to me he will end up barrel chested. Quite excited to watch his progression and growth after today.

I missed Howes not being there today until I saw his omission from the side.

Good hair QD, but to me he was one who didn't really seem happy out there today. Hopefully it's just a perception but he doesn't look confident to me. Looks like the weight of the world is on his shoulders. Saw him miss a snap in a drill and on the way back to the centre Stafford was having a word with him and he didn't seem happy or listening. All perception from the boundary and he is likely just frustrated with his form and the extra attention he has been getting lately. Can't wait for him to be firing again, and hopefully that is tomorrow night. That should bring the joy back.

TRAINING: Thursday 27th June 2024 (Gabba)
Session finished with some 'relaxed' shots on goal. My random thoughts on the youngsters: AMW - was looking forward to getting a look and not disappointed. Smooth mover and nice balance. Came across as a well put together young man when talking to the kids at the end. The thing that stood out for me was the definition of his legs, he doesn't miss leg day! Kynan Brown- odd body shape and looks a lot smaller than he is. Reminds me of a German Sheppard pup who has to grow Ito it's ears and paws. I can't wait to see what his body develops into. Looks as young as he is. Jefferson - a lot bigger than I expected. Moved well, good shot at goal. Will settle quickly when he gets his chance and I am glad we are not rushing him. Think his chest will fill out more and his strength will continue to improve. From a distance his body and movement reminded me of Charlie Curnow. Tholstrup - such a pup. So energetic and has a great swagger. He has a frame that says power and when he fills it out and develops he will be Tracc mk2. Interesting when he was having shots at goal from the boundary he really thumped the ball. Windsor - so smooth, so balanced, kicking is just so effortless for him. When he was having shots he just caressed the shots. Woey - was there but not enough in my view to see much. One of my favourites who I hold great hope for. Glad he made the team this week. Laurie - even at training I just can't see it with him. Turner - hearing him speak to the kids on the boundary he reminded me of every bloke I have ever met in Albury. (That's not a bad thing). Good strapping, wholesome country lad. He and Petty were both moving well. Happy to answer any questions, just remember that I text like a monkey on a typewriter, so be patient.

Hi all, as there is no thread on this I thought it was a good time to start my first one. I haven't seen a training session since we stopped going to Maroochydore, and never one in season or a captains run. To my novice eye it was a very light session with a bit of ball work and a few ball movement activities. No contact etc and intensity was low and most seemed to be enjoying themselves. All the usual squad from last week were there with the exception of Salem who was notably absent. Other additional were AMW (as announced), Lever (with his kids), Woey, Laurie, Jefferson and Melksham.
