Training 2023 Pre Season

[luca77]

I reckon Peris might be one who slides into RL’s good books. Elite pace. Loves to tackle. Has been sighted around the coat tails of the better endurance runners in the time trials this year.

If he shows a bit I think we might just get a sneak peek of him late in a preseason game.

Ross especially keen on his lookaway handballs by all accounts.

KPF at Cats: Neale 204, Hawkins 198, Phoenix Foster 198 Cameron 196,
(At St Kilda we have Max at 204....Cordy at 195, though he has mainly played back and not forward, then Hayes at 193 as well as also at 193 Sharman, Battle . though Battle is really a back now)

Ruck /Forwards Ratuguolea is 198 and Stanley 200
(St Kilda: Marshall 201 , Keeler 198)

I don't believe that the Cats lack for genuine tall forward options. Especially when they have two true key forwards at the top of their game.


Blicavs 198 is more a tall utility who plays ruck, follower, midfield wing, defence....but not really forward.

Other rucks Ceglar 204 and Conway 205.
(St Kilda Campbell 201 Heath 204)

If you are including Neale (who is a ruck) and foster from the cats, the saints also have Matt Allison (195cm), Mason Wood (193cm).

My point is we have options up forward. I'd even like to see Owens at CHF/FF

Significantly pleasing.

No i haven't. Pleasing whom?

 

[maanco]

Josh Battle I’m gonna get you to go to a new position this week: The Wing! And on the opposite wing we’re putting cooper Sharman

Jack Peris (176cm) Full Forward

[PoppedCorn]

He's looking very stressed in the face of wall to wall Big Footy speculation

Gee no wonder he looks upset with himself at training lol

Don't mind the buzzcut but I'm still waiting for Jack to lose the bad teenage moustache.

Mitch will be very important to our forward set up..strong, tough, strong overhead & a goal kicker!!

Wouldn't mind us trying a purely mid sized forward set up
sharman, Owen Poo Wood see how oppoosition teams set up for the running power.

 

[Verdun66]

No one at training yesterday?

This is exactly how I’d love to see us set up, plus Membrey, Higgins & Gresham.
One of Wood, Phillipou or Owens starting on the bench!

The boss does like a defensive forward!!

Yeah - they can all run up the ground and then kick it back to the likes of May and Lever who haven't moved and have sat back in the i50.

I think we will still need an i50 "marking" presence even if they can't mark.

Didn't the players turn up?

 

[#gosaintas]

Didn't the players turn up?

He won’t be doing that again!

Hey Guys, trying to get into Youtube a bit so would appreciate you guys checking out my new video.

Interesting to hear Lenny suggest on SEN this afternoon that Mitch Owens may chop out in the ruck while Hayes is injured. Suggested a similar role to that of Shaun Grigg in 2017 at Richmond.

“You take it personally”: Criticism of Saints a key factor in Hayes’ homecoming

“I guess that was part of my motivation to get back involved in footy.”

Campbell or Heath just stands there and knocks it down occasionally manages an actual mark
