I think a lot of players on the list could do with Tabs work ethic.
If he's able to guide Amiss with that it would be incredibly valuable.

How many spots do we have for train on’s? I was really impressed with Beattie the other day despite the fact he looks considerably shorter than most or possibly every player on our list.

We have two spots left on our list.

Interesting we’ve invited another player this late in the piece. Considering wing and small forward are the two most pressing needs it probably doesn’t bode too well for Voss or SVR
And then Voss does well in the match sims.

I'm only speculaing but I think coming into the preseason there would have been concerns that Tabs wouldn't be able to get back to full fitness so they brought in Voss and SVR as insurance if Tabs got another injury heading into the season.
I think it's more so that both of the guys on the LTI are key forwards? So it makes sense to replace at least one of them with another tall.

From a Saints fan on Reddit about McKenzie:
"He became one of our most important gameday players in 2022. Our drop-off in form that year aligns perfectly with his ongoing injury issues. He was that important to us.
His running ability is incredible, while his defensive accountability made him such an effective two-way player for us. It also allowed players like Hill and Sinclair to shine coming off half back.
I was devastated to see him get desisted. If he can get his body right, he'll be a fantastic contributor to your footy club. I will add though, his issues are concussion related. I wasn't too surprised when we did let him go."

Would love to hear a report on the rest of the match sim if you were down there!
It also appears Voss despite his height is really more medium tall which we have a lack of depth in. Sturt, Frederick, Banfield.
Sam VR is long term consideration for developing tall forward.
Max Beattie - small forward. I like what I’ve seen. Can come in now and play a role. But also young developing player.
McKenzie - plug and play HBF depth.
I reckon we’ll likely hold one spot for MSD and add one player now. I’ve been wrong before and if Voss continues to show good value in match sims we may end up selecting two. McKenzie still in the mix for Gold Coast.

No issue. Come on down Cooper Simpson.
I'm locked up out on site with covid going stir crazy in my room.
If anybody can give ya boi a crumb of a training report today I will give the most comprehensive report you've ever read next Monday when I'm back in town (quality not guaranteed)
Also, any updates on Freddy would be great. Have not seen him do much this preseason at all and I'm slightly worried

He’s come in so late in the game?
That’s a very favourable tweet for a train on. Reckon he signs with us.

Social media department don't sign the players lol
I don't reckon he comes over at all if there's no a very high chance of us signing him tbh.
SVR has stayed home and I don't feel the other two had the options McKenzie has.
It's kind of the opposite, he's all out of options and had to turn to Freo and GC to try and extend his career
If he had options in Melbourne then he likely doesn't come
I don't think it's a sign of him being highly likely to sign, it's moreso we are one of his last options

Remember team.
This is us vs us. in a game that likely has less contact and pressure than a harlem globetrotters match
That said.
