Training 2022 Training Reports and General Club Updates

[legendstatus]

I recall he said he modelled his game on Dangerfield. That caught my attention. I thought it showed enormous confidence and even if remotely true he might be a real find.

You mean he dives, whingers, fakes injuries, exaggerates pain & looks for frees? That's really disappointing!!!!

Training report - Tuesday September 13th. Prelim week.

Pretty solid session this morning. Some media around, interviewing fans about the upcoming game. I told Mitch Clearly "mate you know I prefer to be betweem the scenes." Haha Luckily he found some other fans to be on camera.

A few players absent.

Tyler B
McMahon (but I did spot him at the end of the session in a training t-shirt, but he didn't train)
Mihocek

Maynard left the session half way through. Unsure why. Concern over his groin? Hopefully he is okay.
A few players swapping numbers. Jordy and Ash
Nick and Jamie
Will wearing #11
Carmy and WHE both wearing 32

The long termers in Dean and Grundy absent also.

Today was more about honing in on their skills, the fundementals that has made us the team we have been this year. Little bit of match play, but not really from centre bounce today -- that will come on Thursday. More about stoppages and grid work.

A few players working on ruck craft. Cox. Cameron. Beggy and even Johnson -- who has been known to help out in the ruck during some VFL games. So not totally unusual, I believe he did some of this last week at training as well.

Harrison was the only one in the rehab group, did a running session for the entire time. Jordy was just more or less managing the loads in his shoulder, as we were told would happen.
Moore completed the whole session. Didn't seem to be affected by the illness he had last week.

They did some drills involving ground balls, and F50 entries from a stoppage.

Then later on, did some goal kicking, as they started trickling inside.

Interesting to see if they marked out the dimensions of the SCG…to practice on a same size ground?

Hopefully he's alright. Thursday will be a watch

They didn’t mention him in the injury report… I have a feeling he’d play even if he needed an arm amputated.

It’s only a flesh wound.
Come on…I’ll bite your legs off !

Hi Jen2310 how's Murley looking at training?

He's no chance of playing obviously, but I've kept an eye on him all season as I think players with genuinely elite pace who can kick a footy will always have potential in a Fly-coached side.

I think he'll be good. Needs to put some strength on him, another pre-season will help.

probably more precaution more than anything else

 

[Doc1763]

I'm worried about Maynard

He finished the game without looking in any discomfort. if he's breathing, he'll play.

 

[unplugged]

Reckon he'd be a chance even if he wasn't breathing TBH

 

[Anzacday]

Incredible athleticism from Ollie!

Incredible athleticism from Ollie!

Was running so fast he didn't have time to stop himself before the rope. That's where his athletic background comes handy. I'd prob break my back lol
Was laughing the whole time too.

 

[Kirby]

He finished the game without looking in any discomfort. if he's breathing, he'll play.

He grabbed his groin in that incident earlier in the game but then ran normally. He might have copped a hit on the tallywacker

 

[Countrypie]

There was a report on the radio this morning that said Mihochek was in doubt (knee). Did I dream this or is it true?

Well known he’s sore.
Missed training yesterday which I reckon is all about loading.
Media needing clicks etc, they’re all clutching at their straws at the moment.

Got to find every conceivable edge this week, because you just know playing Sydney in Sydney, the AFL and the umpiring fraternity are going to give us absolutely nothing.

 

[Big Bryza]

Having a shoulder reco post season. On top of a sore groin.

He's banged up but will keep on keeping on.

Hopefully he smacks Heeney relentlessly on Saturday.

 

[BuildEmUp]

You could tell he clearly is carrying something. The off season can't come sooner for a rest for him I imagine.

he has only two more games to play!

 

[Harry O]

So which 3 umpires are playing for the Swans on Saturday?

The AFL are still trying to decide who they want to win.

Collingwood $$$$
Sydney expansion of AFL

Only joking well sort of.
