Was a good hit out this morning with plenty of positives:
Intensity was high throughout and almost every drill was match sim of some sort. Definite emphasis on executing under pressure, winning contests and there was no holding back.
Doc looking in great shape, involved in full match sim (limited minutes) and reading the play beautifully.
Charlie moving as well as ever and seemingly no knee concerns. Won most of his ball further up the ground (70m out) while Harry on the other team played closer to goal. Harry led well and was hit up nicely a few times.
No mid in particular dominated but all had great moments (Walsh, Cripps, Dow, Cerra, Hewitt).
Setterfield was prominent in the first match sim and Fish on limited minutes looked dynamic.
Carroll, Durdin, Philp (2 goals) and Owies all showed glimpses to get you excited about their future.
Young looks balanced and composed for a big man but McDonald competes so hard it will be difficult to overlook him as the Jones replacement in rd 1
MMG will make a great 3rd defender if his body holds up. His raw speed (fitness willing) will get him to contests and his leap could see him intercept marking or at least spoiling often. With his fast break and good hands he’ll also be a great target from kick outs.
O’Brien, Williams and Williamson were providing plenty of dash. O’Brien looks ready to go.
Cuningham and Marchbank ran laps but DC in particular looked in the best shape he’s ever been.
TDK was mainly put through his paces with trainers and very limited non contact work.
Definite emphasis on winning the ball in tight, executing under pressure and transitioning through the corridor. One of the match sims being full ground length, very narrow width.
