Side note. Whitlock playing on Larkey, just being a pest defender and generally trying to piss him off when the ball wasn’t in the vicinity , was funny to watch

oh how I've missed him

 

[Harpergun]

teams split into 3 groups.
Team 1 transitioning out of defence with team 2 defending. If team 1 gets it into forward 50, team 2 needs to switch to the other side of the ground and defend again against team 3 who is now transitioning and generally starts before the defending team gets there. If the defending team causes a turn over though then the transitioning team needs to run over and defend team 3. If you win by either transitioning to forward 50 or cause a turn over you get a break.
It’s a brutal drill if you don’t get a win.
Caleb Daniel again stood out with his ball use and overlap run.
Luke Parker is moving really well, just knows where to be.
Sheez has had a few fumbles, dirty on himself.
FOS is a beautiful kick, stood out a couple of times with his ball use.

Yep. Worthless to us now given his primary role as an aerial target

Awesome, kids got some mongrel.

Interesting that he’s playing back. WDawson looks more of a natural back too. Looks like the plan is to play chom forward?

Is the QLD camp kind of like a bonding holiday? Get all the boys closer?

oh you said bonding, my mistake..

Yeah he does.
Possibly it’s just for his education, uses the ball by foot nicely and looked poised when he had it.
Chom and Will were both in the rehab group so hard to tell on what plans are there.

Id like to imagine this is a directive from Clarko

I read some absolute crap on here but actually laughed out loud, it has my vote

I went down watched training
Sheezel looked very fit, pushed hard during drills and was out in front leading and setting the standard.
JD is a big unit and looked good, should be a big help to the forward line
As everyone has said, Caleb Daniel elite foot skills and decision making looked fantastic
Wardlaw on the other hand, his kicking was poor turned it over by foot every time. I mean every time.
Bull running through the mid field a lot, looks in good nick and dominated. I think he's in for a big season.
Finnbar, I'm sorry I just don't see what every body else sees. Just another VFL player to me at this stage. yes he's young and I could be wrong.
urquhart looks good, could be a great pick up.

Hopefully the Lord of War polishes up throughout the preseason.

Im bloody excited to watch him this year. Along with Kerch.

He was at the AFLW GF with his kids. Had to trope all the way to the back of the stands as there were no seats - club obvs didn't organize any tickets for ex-players.

 

[Ruckle]

Perhaps its years of psychological drama but as soon as I saw the ball on the ground at the start of the vid I was expecting someone to step on it and do ankle ligament damage. I wept with relief when it was scooped up.

More importantly, do they have a coffee cart?

I’m reliably informed that Wardlaw is an undisputed lock in the side and his poor disposal is irrelevant.
