Training Training Reports and Updates

[KinderSmock]

Dean still has a year left to run on his deal so hopefully we'll see him soon. But because he's been placed on the LTI, you'd be thinking he's out for at least 11 weeks.

Few questions raised from this. Why Markov? Dean is a tall, Markov is a medium. Yes, we want run off HB but we now have Quaynor, Noble, Pendles, Maynard, Hoskin-Elliott, Ryan and Daicos capable of playing exactly the same role.

Frampton is almost a lock at this point and I'd expect Murphy and Kelly to be given opportunities.

 

[Jonno94]

How far away does Kreuger look from rejoining drills?

 

[Gaspard]

Markov is a strange one for me. I don't really see why we want him. The fact that we leaped on him the instant he went to Carlton says that the recruiting staff disagree. They must have seen a lot more than I did in his games for Richmond and Gold Coast.

Guess the club went with the known quantity rather than a reflex reaction to getting a tall. Clearly we struggle recruiting KPP with a strategic approach, yet alone getting one with just 5 days before the end of the SSP. With Krueger's flaky shoulders and now Dean, all eyes will be on KPP options for the MSD.

I would suggest Carlton had nothing to do with it. The timing of the scans on Chaz Dean did though

They're certainly right more often than I am.

Agree, McRae knows him really well - played under him in the Richmond Reserves premiership - I don't think the decision was based on Carlton's plans

Fly and Leppittch big fans with there time at Richmond

 

[Jen2310]

Can play a role if needed, but in the meantime will improve our vfl team too.

For me , Phil Manassa in the 77 Grand Final , to see that live as a kid on the same wing , will be forever planted within me , an amazing run , selling candy on the biggest stage.pulsating moment as the crowd rode every bounce till the finality of the ball saying thru the big sticks. Amazing.

I was too flat at that stage of the game to give a stuff.

 

[Mkcaptain]

I remember when he was drafted Hine mentioned Joe Richards potentially starting off half back. Absolutely zero need for that now I'd say.

And funny enough, lately he has been moved up forward.
Around the same time that WHE moved back

 

[Kappa]

Dean refractured his right foot at training from a knock

That’s pretty much career done, 2 years of constant foot fractures. Poor kid

Don’t blame you Domus. but as a wide eyed naive kid living in Collingwood fantasy land , I thought flags would come every few years for us , boy did I wise up quick to the realities of Collingwood and Grand Finals.

I'd already seen us lose in 64 by 4 points, 66 by one point and 70 by ten points after leading by 44 at halftime.

Mum and Dad about to get to work on me in 64. In 66 I was a years age , so that don’t count , then from 1970 went to every Collingwood Grand Final.

 

[Bianconeri]

He would have been a good get for us if we hadn't had extremely poor salary cap management at the time.

I don’t think we’d have played to his strengths but would have been very handy under Fly last season.

Big… but not that big.

Fly and Leppa were at Richmond when he was there. They must see someone who is physically and mentally mature who knows their gameplan.

Lets hope he can keep his loose lifestyle out of the club and the media.

Now you've got me interested.

Apparantely known for his loose lifestyle, then a friend of mine just mentioned to me, on his insta he posted something from a famous night club called revolver where taking drugs is normal
basically the night club opens at 3am and is where people go out to all hours of the morning while high on drugs


I dont know anything about it, but as long as he keeps to a professional on field and doesnt get in the media, there wont be an issue lol Unless he has moved out of that phase.

Just what Jordy needs, someone else to lead him astray!

As long as he’s not getting himself into trouble it’s probably not the worst thing in the world for the group to have a bloke that knows how to have a big of fun.
