Fairly light session today and a really good crowd.

Noticed a few things:

Gav signs with his left hand... isn't he a right footer?
Majak has his ring finger on his left hand missing down to the first knuckle.
Lachie was standing on the boundary with J-Mac (from memory), suddenly he grabs a footy, runs on to the ground and signals to a player to run towards him and he fakes a pass to them. I look to my left to see who is he is signalling to and there's no one there. Funny guy.

Oh and PDR was standing up the back for most of the session.

[The OBSTacle]

There was supposed to be 800-1000 people there today.

[giantroo]

Got a video coming up of the boys.


Not much happened today Obba. Just some light skills session.


Hansen, Jmac, Spud, Hmac, Thommo, Ross, Wright, Lower, Mabon, Grima and Cunnington all didn't train with the main group today. Assume this is the injured group.

6 players out of our best 22 injured at this stage. Could argue about Jmac and Lower as well.

I may go postal.

Pretty sure I saw Dish doing some of the drills.

 

[Arden St]

Pretty sure I saw Dish doing some of the drills.

That would be right. He was in his full training gear. Is he still on a modified program with the injury, or is he back in full training?

Had a good arvo down there today but was a bit distracted looking after the kids.

Very light session overall.

Things I noticed.

Speighty is a unit. Leopard like. Seemed to be enjoying himself.

Norris seems damn keen for it in the competitive stuff. Agile and intense.

LA had it on a string in the game play.

Wellsy was taking the ball on the wing off a quick give and then drilling it to thomas who was leading out from fwd line, reaching a great speed and taking clean marks.

Richo. Have seen him in the VFL GFs, but Richo has straightened up (vertically). On field prescence of a KPD height to me. With speed. Looks lean but strong. Doing same drill as wellsy and LT but was kicking to Mullet (pretty sure it was him anyway).

Grima very relaxed in the rehab group. Appeared very comfortable. Short kicks, throwing body side to side a bit. Feel a bit reasured seeing that.

Might post a bit more later.

As I came into the ground, Dish was heading into the pool. Almost positive he wasn't on the ground at any stage.

The club definitely had photos of him taking part in some of the drills today on their website.

That's what we saw too. He was walking up that way in his training gear when we arrrived.

Thanks Pissi, you're alright for a Magpies supporter

 

[gustev]

That was Monday's gallery I'm pretty sure. Maybe he was on the track before earlier today perhaps before I got there about 5 to two.

Great work

We arrived right on 2pm & Petrie was walking up the road with his bag, he didn't train. Maybe he went to the pool.
It was a great day, my daughters got some autographd & I tokk a few picks of them with players. They don't know the players, but loved it anyway.

The worry was all of the injured players, wow.

I noticed Spud jogging around the ground, boy does he look like he has had a big summer on the the weights, and possibly trimmed down a bit.

Got some nice gear for myelf & the family at the shop, all ready for the real stuff to start now. I went to see them train this time last year, I have to say the skills looked better today & a lot more meat on the boys.

I have to say Hansen has almost no definition in his legs for a guy who has been an athelite for a long time. I read his saying last season that in the past he has only done just what is required at training.

This thread is shockingly thin on detail. Sure, there might be a few snippets about who trained and what not, but where are the BBQ reports? Lift ya game people.
