2015 Pre-Season (All news, press conferences, training reports)

[whizkizz]

I feel like I'm doing promos for SEN, but they were saying they'll be broadcasting each game of the NAB Cup live.

Not sure if this is even possible, as it looks like our game overlaps with the Dogs vs. Tigers game (and you can bet they'll cover that game!).

If they do then one of the games will probably be available online only perhaps

Clarke looks much stronger than he appears and considering that we're putting him up against guys like Cloke we're banking on him to play a more natural full back role

On McStay, I see so much upside it's borderline ridiculous. As first year player, his marking ability is top notch and his versatility is ideal for the modern game. Could be the pick of the 2013 draft, which is saying something considering we snatched up guys like Lewy Taylor and James Aish

WTF? Is this some Penrose Stairs puzzle.

All NAB games will be on the radio - SEN. Stream it online if in Qld.

With a word of warning, I believe Terry [decade of pain] Wallet will be up there being part of the commentary team.

Updated injury list:

Allen Christensen (Back) - 1-2 weeks
Cian Hanley (Knee) - Season
Justin Clarke (Hamstring) - Available
Jonathan Freeman (Glute) - 10 weeks
Ryan Harwood (Groins) - TBC
Pearce Hanley (Hip) - 16 weeks
Trent West (Knee) - 11-14 weeks

I could've sworn someone said West was just a few weeks away from training again. Wonder what happened.

He was injured in round 11 last year so on the basis that the estimate is based on readiness to play, that's about right for his return, even if he does begin training in the next couple of weeks. And it's probably conservative.

 

[chopperduck]

I think his return date has been to full training. Those injury lists are time until available for selection. He will miss 2/3rds of the year.

Those lists aren't exactly rigorously maintained either. Not sure about ours' but the Geelong list has blokes marked as injured that have been in full training since Christmas.

They catch a lot of colds down that way.

Am I right in thinking we're just 24 hours away from the year's first selection night "discussion"?

I think so. I look forward to watching Jed's status as 2015 whipping boy manifest.

 

[MacMum]

Yep....and ain't it grand!!

 

[SizeMatters]

Havnt felt this attached to a player since Capper! McStay is going to be insane good.

Does anyone have any info on Dayne Beams? Have heard nothing... Has he at least continued on from his Collingwood days?

I never saw him train at Collingwood but from what I've seen he's an impressive trainer. He's a lot bigger than you think he would be. Good runner as well. Has a lovely kick on him as well, I'm just not sure what else there is to talk about in regards to training. The real stuff will be round 1 when he pulls on our guernsey and goes up against the Pies.

When he was playing that semi-intra club thing, was he running both ways? That was a problem he had at Collingwood apparently.

I will melt down if Voss doesn't pick Polec and Karnezis.

Melt. Down.

 

[Toffee Lion]

I hope Polkinghorne doesn't get selected.

 

[POBT]

****ing Voss

Crap, its too soon I haven't even put in my bulk order of popcorn! Now I'm going to have to pay for express delivery

Jordan Lisle is the future.

Holy **** your timing to this board coincided with beams trade request.... You couldn't be the most elaborate troll in Collingwood history!!? I mean has anyone ever made Haso this upset before.

I would be genuinely impressed. It would seriously change my understanding of reality. I would have to go away and rethink a few basic truths.

If that bloody Adcock bloke gets a game...


Compromising pictures of Leppa can be the only reason.
