Totally agree, injury riddled time at Roos, reckon we said have a year or 2 at Casey and we will have a close look Already knows game plan and systems

Now that Jake Melksham and Michael Hibberd have their own gym, the players not back yet will have somewhere to train if they don't want to come into the club before they have to Alex, the high performance/rehab guy also has a gym where they go Except Harmes of course, who is still enjoying Bali???

Some more info At end of session when players split into groups for more running, Jones, Salem, JKH and Gawn went for a run around the Tan KK looked like the new boy out to impress, sharp in every drill, easy guy to talk to as well Looking forward to post Xmas when Gawny and Preuss do some one on one on training, might rival the Petracca/Oliver Jones/Brayshaw for intensity Billy Stretch is fully recovered from toe injury, same with Maynard and hips, now a slow build up before Xmas ready to fully participate after Fritsch is still built like a stick, but has obviously worked on his base over the break, easily outrunning the other first years in Spargo and Petty Lever is bigger in the arms and shoulders, so has obviously taken the opportunity to do some weight work when off legs, don't think he doubts for a second he will be ready to go Rd 1 All the players knew exactly what was required of them for the session, it was no [censored] farting about between drills, run like a well oiled machine, carrying on from last year No sign of Austin Bradtke, Guy Walker was working away, sometimes on his own, other times with the rehabbers From what I could glean, others were inside getting physio etc, Oskar Baker came out for a walk and a look around The rehab as such was mainly Lever, others like Viney, Stretch, Tim Smith, Oscar Mac, Walker, Maynard did bits and pieces, assume once full squad sessions start, there will a more structured 'rehab' group There was no Goodwin or McCartney, all other coaches in attendance

I offered to do a bit of tonsorial coaching should it be required

Another note got there early to have my egg an bacon roll and coffee before the start watched AVB run laps by himself for about 20 minutes

One different point of view Preuss is ginormous he completely blocked the sun out when I was taking his pic for Insta ??

I asked Nibbler whether he was a chance to be pipped by the new special KK Answer Not a chance ? Will have some pics on Insta tonight Any questions will answer tonight

He will be there doing the kicking and running, no weights and no contact, wpuld assume he may give the handballs a miss as well

Last year Nathan Jones, Nev Jetta and a couple of others rocked up to train with 1st to 4tt Clarke @Whispering_Jack

He has signed for his old junior club Gisborne for 2019 season

The AFLW is in its infancy, there are very few female coaches at this level Assume this will increase as some of the older players retire but there is a pathway that actually plays, for them to continue on as coaches

When he was sidelined with injury, he did a lot of work with Casey, alongside Stinnear, who he obviously impressed Spoke to him a couple of times, great footy nous in someone so young His body wouldn't behave as a player, door closes another opens

It wouldn't neceesarily be to study a sport, maybe technology to enhance the studying of the game Seen all sorts of things tried at training, drones, body and head cams, a sort of whiz bang GPS, the guy trialling it for the club lost me after 3 words when I asked what it did 'better'

Try asking Craig Jennings, I did, professional sport changes daily, you investigate every new 'approach"

According to Jake who I spoke to at season's end, wants to be up and ruuning for Rd 1 selection, has a complete program mapped out to try and acheive this, assume he will need every box ticked as this is 2nd knee

Shannon Byrnes and Matty Whelan fulfil this role at the club I put in the other thread that apart from being a natural footballer Col was a top bloke who was always up for a chat and a laugh whenever you met him offfield

You really do need to make your mind up, during the season you have players who are not A graders as list cloggers How many inside mids do you want, we were confident enough to offload Dom Tyson Must have been delisted for a reason AFL website is reporting to Brisbane

So that's based on 2 games at AFL level, seriously, and 'lacks polish'

His last pre season was excellent, hence the Rd 1 spot, was developing nicely, as Mahoney said, but crueled by the hip injury Last time I spoke to him, was way ahead where they expected him to be in rehab As other topics show, you don't have to be a superstar if you have the attributes Goody wants and you play your role

And Menzel's tackling stats and possessions are? Try not to let facts get in the way of your argument
