Training Summer Footy Fix - 2022 training watch

[TheFourPillars]

Just a question. Based on training activity, whos been included in rucking drills apart from the obvious three?

Its been two actually Reeves and Lynch. Macca has been scarce in pre season so far

Do you see Mitchell Lewis ever playing in the ruck? His best game last year came against the Bulldogs when he played there. It might be a good way for him to get into the game a bit more.

 

[BigLittleHawk]

Just get Day right. The kid could be anything, but has had some bad luck with the body

Yeah he's got the Xavier Ellis vibes unfortunately...

Hopefully not the case though...

 

[Dewyyyyy]

How? he had one rolled ankle against Richmond and then re rolled it. It's not a hammy where it'll consistently happen, it's just unlucky landing and placement.

I am not sure. His focus has been playing his forward role i think he will continue to do that

If they are allowing big boy an extended rest he may come back extremely fresh, one of those wind the clock back years

 

[BIGHAWK23]

Hopefully not the case though...

Day has had 2 impact injuries

Ellis had more soft tissues

 

[MrPremiership]

i don't see how

 

[Roger Rogerson]

Hopefully not the case though...

If Day ends up with a flag then job done.

X played in 2 losing GFs also

But only one losing GF with the Hawks.

 

[TylerDurden]

But only one losing GF with the Hawks.

Kicked the 1st goal of the 2012 GF too. Not many would've bet on that.

Hopefully our Hawks started to reduce there contact with the general public at the start of this week, so they can return to training with out too many covid issues.

Thank the footy gods training starts back Monday. An it is only about 8 weeks to our first practice match..... I hope our kids get a run early in the practice match.

I think we need to embrace the fact that many AFL players (and coaches) will miss countless matches This year due to covid a la English Premier league

Speak for yourself, I'm not jumping to "embrace" something like that.

Unfortunately spot on the NBA,EPL has been a nightmare to follow. Reporting around 50 Afl players currently have covid it will be a nightmare to organise. Let's hope full teams and crowds

Did anyone notice Wee Baby Seamus at training pre-Christmas?

How's he looking?

I think it was LindaCRS who said Seamus was doing all the right things?

 

[Beandip]

Siiiigh... obviously players deserve a break over Christmas etc., but they don't consider how that affects me! I'm dying for a training update over here! - I'm going to have to read training updates for the 2013-15 seasons to comfort myself.

They are all better off catching it all at the same time and early. They will then have 90 days to train without needing to worry if they test positive.

 

[MrPremiership]

When is O'Hara coming across?

Looks like he's still in Ireland. With presumably a 14 day quarantine, he might not start pre-season for a while yet

I think if you are vaccinated you don't need to do the 14 day quarantine when arriving in Victoria, just a rapid test upon arrival?

Hopefully that is the case, be aged to maintain conditioning in a hotel room for two weeks!

Honestly this would actually be the ideal scenario as weird as it sounds.

Much better everyone gets it pre season and builds up immunity than middle of the year or god forbid before a final!

By that stage they either accept immunity or vaccinations otherwise let’s just shut up shop as there is obviously no way forward for any form of progression.

 

[Pessimistic]

If theres a draw on reserves teams, there will be a similar draw into reserves teams from local competitions. Wil they allow them to mix?

I have a feeling whatever they call the reserves comp will be sporadic again
