News 2018 Pre-season, huff, puff, houses-trained-down and NEWS

Mind blowing. Is it because we don't have a great ruck set up with Smith, Stanley and or Blitz? Because Dangerfield and Menegola are ranked highly, Selwood should be ranked highly and Ablett is, well, Ablett.

Good.

Take the pressure off a bit. Let our team work from 7th up if they are good enough.

The press has been fapping about it all off season - and if they dont all get 40 a week each they'll be a labelled a failure.
Let them climb up from 7th. Fine by me - and yes I expect them to climb.

I've been busy lately and not keeping up...is there something wrong with Danger? My Hawk supporting boss was trolling me about him today.

he apparently has had a sore back, but they were saying he took part in the full match simulation (and absolutely burned) the other day... they have just been managing him apparently

Not that I'm aware of. Played match simulation last Saturday.

Thanks. I just said, "Nah, he's right", and then wondered what I'd missed.

Puff piece over here on the Radio about how Kelly has teamed up with Ablett as a training buddy in the preseason.
Gives him a huge chance for Round 1 as a Motlop replacement.
Rare to have a story about a non Docker or Eagle but shows how well regarded he is as a South Freo lad. Also reiterated that he was firmly on the Eagles radar.

Ablett stood out in the video on the webpage, Crameri did a couple of things too.

If you were being cynical you might suggest that had more to do with his opponent than him...

Also at the start of the match simulation is the player in blue who gets a tackle head on and shrugs it Gregson?

Yeah I reckon it is.. bit of strength there

He was in everything.

I’ve missed those weighted passes to leading forwards. Hawkins must be #firming too.

Which vid would that be, are you referring to Gaz or Crameri.?

Would like to see any current footage of Corza, almost like the Loch Ness monster at this stage.

When is the intra club match? Any ideas?

We don't have one.
They just do constant match simulation during training

Just looked like it was easy as well

Tell you what else caught my eye, Kelly hitting the fall of the ball at pace and bursting through.. and best of all, the sweeping handball to Gaz who was in space.
Handballs like that open up the entire game and great sign to see the awareness to do it.. too many don't

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Blicavs clearly behind the ball so that's probably answered that question given Gardner is injured (apparently)

 

[you pick one]

Scott categorically ruled out the idea of Stanley playing as a backman in the Ask the Coach video put up on the AFL website today.

(Thank god).

The clip that makes Bruce and Cyril look a school boys crush compared to Scotts hard on for Blits,he had him Back, Ruck, Forward, and Mid, the answer to everything problem was Blits.

Thats what made me happy. People complained Kelly didn't look fast in the AFLX match but if he makes space like that and is that clean getting the ball out of the centre then his speed can be turtle for all I care.

Not because he is not capable though- just because we have other established options + Blicavs!
We can all have our opinions.
I see Stanley as the ideal CHF- otherwise a trial at KD.
Whatever, would love to see him at his best in our 22.

Nick Cannon..

Kelly to GAJ to Crameri was silk.

Gregson fend off was heartening to see... Blitz did nicely to read play and take mark - and it looks like he beat out PFD for it.

ERat with a nice lead up mark.

And then good fast ball movement at the end giving Crameri and 1 on 1 with Blitz - and Crameri marks and goals.

Happy with these moments.

Tim Kelly, absolutely lightning fast at the start of that clip.

Yeah I was in the questioning camp after AFLX but that training footage looked promising.
