Training 2021 Training Discussion

[CapitalA]

I’ve seen very little of Cyclone Treacy but from the reports it is promising albeit jan/feb. all this from playing zero games in 2020.

Good thing he didn't play any games or he woulda gone top 10.

 

[Dockeroo]

Exciting signs from the youngsters. Was Logue playing I wonder?
Lobb looked pretty sluggish getting run down by Cox with an open goal in front of him. I wonder if Leno Thomas is anywhere near a game at this stage?
Great to see Henry looking so classy. Blakely is fighting for his career so he won’t be backing down from nothing either.

only on limited minutes he could be doubtful for R1 too

You reckon they'll let Henry and Young tie for the rising star?

They have a great chance to win.

Most of the high draft picks are talls from last year. Massive chance.

I expected at least 2 or 3 nominations this season.

 

[WAnchor]

Interestingly, I believe Sturt is also eligible.

 

[Dockeroo]

Brayshaw in the leadership group apparently:

 

[Diverbelow]

Good thing he didn't play any games or he woulda gone top 10.

Still only 18 until late in the season. Big key forward that takes a strong grab, crashes packs and kicks straight. Whoever was his scout then thankyou.

 

[masai]

Their ruckman has a stress reaction in his foot, Hannebery with calf issues, Jones with a hammy, another young player ripped it off the bone and Patton has near snapped his leg off this morning.

+ B. Hill - damaged heart.

 

[Tbonefreo]

Haha Sandi is still tall.

In other news water is still wet

 

[Van_Dyke]

Brayshaw the leader!

Cyclone Treacy tried to take out Ryan.

He’ll end up like Tojo.

 

[SHill Shall]

Did anyone else notice the incessant looping of the crowd audio in the highlights vid. Drove me crazy in the end.

Media crew - can do better!

 

[yyou]

And Sturt

...............and Treacy.

Is it just me or does Ryan Daniels seem unusually competent and switched on for a Perth footy journo? Good work Ryan (and PT).

If he doesn’t win the “ Best Footy Journalist “, at the next WA media awards, I’ll go he.

Duffield writes good articles, but Ryan gives complete knowledgeable coverage of all aspects of the game. The simple answer is, he goes to the coalface, rather than writing / tweeting articles from their favourite boozer.

 

[Tbonefreo]

Serong has to be my favourite player now. That tackle. Acres tried to give him a pat and he didn't want bar of it. Doesn't get distracted.

Good times ahead gang

Yep - we look so much better with our Serong.

Don’t forget the AFL golden child Matty Rowell is also eligible for this years rising star. Our contenders will have to produce some extraordinary performances to beat Gills pet.
I didn’t see Young, Chapman, Sturt, Treacy, Henry or any of our other youngsters calling up Gill to sell him a freo membership

That’d be a harder sell than Henry flogging ties to Pies.

Not an injury troll, but the kids made of plasticine. Just like Barlow the footy gods will crack down

I haven't been this excited about our group since the post 08 draft.

In previous seasons I've been hoping for the emergence of 1 or 2 players to lift us up the ladder (McCarthy, Bennell, Logue etc).

This season we seem to have great depth. The whole group seem to be playing with great confidence and freedom. I have no idea how our best 22 will line up!

Jfc I need to take a shower after reading through all the articles and checking out the vids and pics.

That is a lot of media content goodness for just one day.

It isn’t just those high end players either, but also the likes of Crowden and Hughes who have become impactful role players who can be relied on. Tucker and Cox may not be best 22, which is remarkable, and several players who are yet to debut are putting on selection pressure.

 

[Gekko71]

Ok, which one out of Chapman & Young are going to start preparing to play wing first game?
Or Young, Chapman & Aish can rotate through wing, half back & interchange.

Edit; that’s some good reading up there, thanks all.

I'm splitting hairs, but for my money, if either (out of those two) are going to end up on a wing, Young will play there first. Both are major talents and both would go well on a wing... but Young's left boot is just phenomenal... having Young kick inside 50 is a no-brainer.

Interestingly, I believe Sturt is also eligible.

Sturt a rising star!
