Training 2019 preseason

[_M_16_]

Why isnt the draft before pre season?

Wouldn't it make sense to draft them and get them training on the first day?

Missing a couple of weeks preseason will barely have much an impact in the long run. They just do some running and kicking early on, stuff that's easy to get up to scratch with.

And because the draftees have exams on, which take priority to football at that stage. They don't need distractions during this period, hence the draft is post exam period.

I thought Picko was meant to be on no-contact?

It could be a promising sign mate.

"Get out on the park, do the drills, but don't tackle anyone, Picko."
"Yeah... right..."

And stop breathing while you're at it.

Every time I see pictures of Picko in a position like this all I can think of is "Picken from behind!"

Anyone know who the bloke with the blonde hair is? Doesn't quite look like Bailey Smith but I'm guessing it is?

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Dunno but not Smith

Could be one of the 2019 draft prospect, know we normally get one or two during the first 3 weeks as per AFL agreement

 

[Doggiesfan14]

Yeah definitely not Smith, must be what VD said

Doesn't look like Bailey Smith. We have an open rookie list spot still so could be anyone who is keen to be taken by us as our last rookie.

Looks a bit like Matt Rowell, a gun under-ager in the TAC Cup this year.

Isn’t he in early conversations for the number one pick?

Dogs to tank confirmed

Nah we’ll be trading next year’s first anyway.

Rowell looks more like Cameron Ling, pale & redhead. Also bigger than whoever that is

Judging by his story we had draft hopeful Darcy Cassar of the Jets training with us today, however he has dreadlocks so that definitley isn’t him in the photo. Does show that the dogs are having some potential draftees train with them though

Draft hopeful this year with our rookie pick or draft hopeful for next year (like all clubs do for a couple of weeks)

I quite like the idea of having a couple of these kids train with us for a week or two before we decide on the final rookie.

3 years ago we had Brayden Sier, Luke Goetz and someone else train with us just before the draft. Collingwood got Sier before we could so we took Goetz

Good to see Cal Porter leading the running sessions

Who was that klutz?

Our esteemed captain & leader. Good on Macrae to rub it in, he looks like he’s put on some size!

 

[ScragCity]

Theres something so funny about seeing Macrae getting into him
