Training 27th Jan

Wow. Youre prob not going to enjoy reading some of this.

Tauru running laps

Clark, Peckett rehab

Henry joined in fwds drill then back to rehab

No Marshall, Phillipou

Pat Said very impressive in 1 on 1

Steele speaking to Physio, sat out midfield drill. Just holding footy, Steele is fine.

NAS up to pyhsio also, rubbing back of right hamstring off field with physio. NAS out again after 15 mins. Fitness test of some sort. Ran half a lap. Couple of run throughs. Hes done for the day. Hopefully just awareness.

Set play drills using ball ups.

Broken up into 4 teams very physical.

Keeler as a fwd. Very nice park mark.

Ross very vocal during drills.

King is getting it kicked over his head. Windy main culprit.

Ross Lyon - "Wilson Half back, we're gonna get you looking like ****ing Sinclair"

Caminiti now off. Not sure what's wrong. Inside with trainers. Didn't come back on.

Hastie very hard landing. He's ok. He is running around like their witches hats. Moving very nicely.

Boyd 1 on 1 vs Arie, ball hit the ground Boyd so fast. Handball into Carroll. Nice goal.

RTB one on one chat with Boxshall.

Henry and Clark look to be running full speed 200s

Windhager treatment to upper right leg. Just looks like deep heat around the back of the knee area.

Now broken into 2 teams. No real definite stronger team. A good mix.

King a quick spew before the match sim starts

Max Hall unbelievable crumb off a huge pack across the body from around 50m out. The whole ground goes off. Awesome goal.

Dodson just put Boyd on his arse. Boyd went down smiling.

Boyd now into room with trainers. Hasn't come back out. Looks like a Pec.

Hill crunched. Winded I think. He's fine.

King 2 or 3 very nice contested marks on Wilkie

This is getting ridiculous. Howard now down. Looks serious. He will be out for a long time. Looked like a broken arm or shoulder. Screamed out the whole ground heard. Pretty serious. Fingers crossed it aint too bad.

Small amount if running at end.
Let's hope none of those injuries are too serious. ​

The “So It Begins” Rolling Round 1 Team

B: Webster - Barrat/Cordy - Wilkie
HB: Schoenmaker - Caminiti - Sinclair
C: Hill - Phillipou - Wood
HF: Wilson - Keeler - Hall
F: Higgins - King - Sharman
Foll: Marshall - Steele - Macrae

Int: Butler Owens Windhager* Garcia Stocker

Em: Jones McLennan Carroll

Injured/Questionable: Dow Howard Boyd Wanganeen-Milera Clark Henry
​

 

[Southeastsainter]

Surely Wilkie goes to FB and give Hammer a go at CHB, I’ll be sick if Cordy gets a gig.

@FootyonNine @9NewsMelb @1116sen

Not too bad then, could be back in time for round 1.

Surely Barrat doesn't get the full back gig against seasoned gorillas or could he?

 

[Saints TV]

Dislocated shoulders depending on severity can still take up to 12 weeks to fully heal, so I'd be very shocked if he's playing Round 1 in less than 9 weeks time.

[saintmike65]

Let's also wait and see what happened to Doogs

Looked like a nasty shoulder injury

 

[saintmike65]

I guess time to break glass for Cordy

Last resort!!

 

[King_Steele]

Max got his revenge

 

[Barrels]

So… alongside The Metronome (Wilkie), we’ve now got…

Barrat (194cm) - Absolute behemoth of a man-child. Ready body. Can play both ends. Might be too steep a learning curve.

Cordy (195cm) - Runs like a winded double-amputee, but has experience and is a mature body.

Caminiti (196cm) - Big, oddly athletic, and has a healthy dose of mongrel. Very much untried as a KPD.

Keeler (198cm) - Had some experience down back for Sandy, but seems to be training in his natural position as a key forward.

Not ideal.

 

[beside the seaside]

Hate to hear of anyone getting injured but we can cover the loss of Dougal. Opportunity knocking for our younger players.. up to them to make the most of it.

I don't share your confidence that we can cover him easily. He's a big loss.

 

[Saint Watto]

It’s early days…no need for panic!

Where's Cairnsman when you need him ??????

Hastie reports are rock solid this pre season. Great that he's coming along so quickly. Is he a genuine smokey for a round one gig?

Not ideal but very exciting! Who knows what this uncertainty can unveil

 

[Otiman]

With our tall forwards sorted, surely Caminiti locks into training with the defenders.

 

[Barrels]

sound of glass breaking

“BAH GAWD THAT’S ZAINE CORDY’S MUSIC. ZAINE IS HERE. CORDY IS HERE”.

 

[Joffaboy]

We also have Webster, McLennon, O'Connell, and Shoenmaker.
None are key positions but Cordy is, and the bacline can be shuffled about to suit.
Our defence is team based as well so it is not a total disaster.

[saintbill]

Shame about Doogs, but he will be back. Hopefully only misses a month of footy.

Cordy the obvious choice for me. Played some okay games in 23 before Hogan embarrassed him in the final.

Wouldn't be opposed to Hammer. Maybe Wilkie has to do a job at full back on occasion and Barrat gets a crack a smaller CHF type.

Will be interesting to see what they go with.

 

[SteeleSaints]

Wow if he requires an immediate reco it will be Howard done for the majority of the year. Injuries in the next month will again dictate our season.

Howard is an important cog, that will hurt big time when we don't even have a ready made replacement for Battle.

 

[akaifu]

Can't forget 198cm man mountain Boyd. Physically, he's the most like-for-like for Doug

Surely not.

 

[Veer Right]

Can't forget 198cm man mountain Boyd. Physically, he's the most like-for-like for Doug

and he was a KPD before he turned ruck so it makes sense.
