May be massively reading into it but does Ollie look like he's playing behind the ball? Ball use looked really good.

Jagga super classy too. They were my main takeouts.
I noticed that about Ollie as well. Ball seemed to be in his hands a lot.
Might even make my Supercoach team

Says Phillips likely to join our VFL team, but we're not looking to add him via the SSP.

Interesting. He's probably still a shot if he applies himself. If hes out performing the other guys, we arent not going to sign him just because hes not in the SPP shortlist.

I wonder if hes behind the others in the pecking order or if he was just late in expressing interest (by which time our SPP spots were taken)?

I remember we spoke to Phillips at trade time but according to Soapy V he had better options at that time. We dont really need any more KPD in our VFL program.
 
W.W. not mentioned there
He was out there on the track, so may still be in the mix.....who knows?

I'd actually be disappointed if we re-signed Carroll or Nigel. There's no immediate need for Carroll after we drafted Charleson, so could develop another year in our VFL program. Durdin just can't stay on the park.

I'd still be looking to take McMahon and Phillips/DGB as our key back ups - and would prefer White over Carroll, although our recruiters may think we're pretty well covered for smaller forwards with Durds, Motlop, Zaccy, Orazio and Fog. The kid can really play though.
 
Not sure Ollie Hollands kicking (especially the slow hand to foot time, and floaters) is what we need as the go to player out of defence.
I think his kicking is generally pretty good, if he has a bit of time. Slow hand to foot less of an issue in the backline where hed have more space.

Agreed. Seems like the move is more to get Ollie’s confidence up by getting more of the ball. Still projects as a wing-type player.
 
How has no-one picked up that Sam Docherty appears to be wearing a hat...

13 years to the day since the infamous Andrew Walker incident... Have we learnt nothing as a club from our past mistakes? I thought out new fitness team were supposed to be cutting edge?
Not by me - see my avatar (will prob change it back tomorrow). And what's this about 'infamous' and 'mistake'? It's a momentous occasion in our club history, one to be celebrated.

Will Doc be forced into retirement so Cody Walker can be presented with the hat when selected as a F/S?

Does anyone know who the mystery players are in this clip?

From what I could see:
45 - ???
47 - Liam McMahon
48 - Denver Grainger-Barras
49 - ???



The previous session, #5 was out there. BlueAbroad said it wasn't Cerra and he was told it was Francis Evans. Must be the ex-Port guy.

Okay, that clarifies the player I was trying to work out in the video.....he's the one just behind Monahan and Ollie in the running drill....so shows he's got some decent running capacity.

Anyone we don’t sign in the SSP, I hope we grab for the VFL team. Keep them within our system so if we need a MSD pick, we have someone to grab straight out of the VFL. If they come on in the VFL system, look at them as a rookie next year maybe.
