Training Training reports 2024

[The Nostradamus]

George Wardlaw training with the main group today, good to see. Almost killed poor McKercher during a drill.

Keep the training tidbits coming please

Has greenwood finally decided to show up?

The vfl boys sellers, downie, Davis and Deakyn smith still training with us?

Notice any ssp train ons?

 

[Amicalola]

Didn't notice if Greenwood was there - that is weird, now that you mention it. Sellers at least was still there, and Downie. Didn't see Davis or Smith but if the other two were there there's a good chance they were too. I was only there for a little while (it do be raining) and spent most of that watching one half of the group. Sellers was running with some of the modified program people (Zurhaar etc.) which was interesting.

Goad was falling behind in the running, looked very tired. Kicked a monster goal from the 50 afterwards though, and everyone got around him. Was cute.

Philips was also there and seemed to be training fine. Absolutely no idea what the reported difficulties were on Friday...

Might have missed him but didn't notice Tarryn either, which is weird.

He definitely left earlier during one of the running drills on Friday. Might have just been a strain

We have 1 rookie spot to fill correct? Does it have to be used now or can we keep it open for the MSD?

yes and can be used now or later, expect us to fill the spot via SSP over the summer, once brady gets on the phone to get us some train on players hopefully small forwards like jack callinan

and knowing us we'd get an injury by then to open a msd spot if we wanted and/or a mid season shiels retirement

Mate they've probably given him some extra time off. It's not the end of the world if that's the case. He's clearly been training pretty hard going off his posts on Instagram and am sure he'll be back soon enough.

I wonder if the training staff have told him to monitor something and to stop training if he feels reduced power, or something like that.

Some comments implied that he quit but it might be him being smart and listening. Or maybe he had the shits, what would I know.

1 rookie or senior. Can be either.

Good thing you're not a fringe player then.

He's been with his partners family in the US. Given you have NFI the circumstances, best to STFU.

How about trying to put a positive post for once

 

[The Nostradamus]

How about trying to put a positive post for once

most of them are
i'd say im a 2:1 ratio of positive to criticism

and all my posts are about making the club better even if it is something small like in this case wanting all players training when they should be, keeping people accountable

Would you spend half a second considering that there might be a reason that's more important than football?

I have NFI mate, he could be unconscious in a Reno brothel for all I know.

I just don't get why you would assume publically questioning his commitment is fair game without knowing for sure why he's not back.

im pointing out that he isn't back when the whole squad was/still is

1 rookie or senior. Can be either.

We could be looking at Connor Downie. Clarkp still feels bad after debuting him as the sub for his one and only game, but he got no game time. Will be interesting to see which undrafted CTL boys we bring into the VFL program. Maybe 1 or 2 of those will get a chance to train on.

 

[ansonholt]

Goad's a goofy looking bugger isn't he

Goldstein replacment, in so many ways.

Weren't you ripping into Spicer last year when he missed the start of preseaon training and didn't he have a very good reason to be in the NT then?

I'm guessing Greenwood has a good reason to absent atm.

I call out anyone that doesn’t come back when they are supposed to/should especially when they are fringe

Sellers would be my pick. We need larkey help.
Would love Ethan Phillips though

Who are you to call anyone out? Delusions of grandeur or what!
