Training 2025 Pre-Season chat

He's not that fragile.
Spent a good deal of time in the VFL and a couple of call up's to the senior team since drafted. It's really been since early last year through until now which has seen him spend a lot of time in rehab.

The big boys usually take a very long time to finally hit their straps. You look across the entire competition, the ruckman begin progressing ages 23-25.

Missed a lot of 2023, too.

Some (likely) bozo messaged in SEN this afternoon suggesting Bailey Smith's knee had pulled up sore (incl swelling) after last weeks's hit out. Likely B/S but anyone else heard anything ? Hard to believe after our club's output over the last 20 years but I tend to automatically assume a pessimistic mindset with these things !

 

[Zouz Kitty]

Google (and its associated AI tools) can only rely off the latest measurements it has - which will pre-date the AFL blackout on weight.

Nonsense

Nonsense

Where do you think Google sources its information from, then? It's not all-knowing, it has to scrape an original web source somewhere.

Looks like Bailey with the knee strapped in the background, first time I’ve seen it strapped this summer.

Don't worry, Smith's just testing out the validity of a sponsored branded bandage since he can't wear a branded headband

I was having dinner with a few mates in a Vietnamese restaurant in koornang road Carnegie,on Monday after the practice match. About [emoji[emoji6[emoji640][emoji638]][emoji640][emoji639]]pm Bailey Smith walked past with his girlfriend, no limp, no bandage.

It's good to know that his girlfriend looked like she was untroubled by any niggling injury.

Did you happen to see whether Bailey was OK as well?

Humphries can do it all. Left foot, right foot, stepladder.

That's the Jack Martin one wood.

“As of December 2024, Bailey Smith, an Australian rules footballer, weighs 86 kilograms (190 lbs). He is 185 centimeters (6 ft 1 in) tall.”

Oh oh..... he's going to be traumatised by this.

Jumping Jack heard the same thing

I’ll his booboo all better
At 185cm + 86kg of muscle, Bailey is perfect

Hi gang, sorry to intrude, but I'm hoping for some help/insight.
I'm in a keeper league for SC and might be able to trade SDK in as a defender. His averages there aren't great, but I see he might move more into a ruck role. Does it look like this will be a longer term role, or just pinch hitting here and there?
Would greatly appreciate any help!

Should play there Most of the early rounds as Conway is injured. After that who knows. He will score much better possessions wise in the ruck. I expect him to get R/D DPP at round 6 so I am considering starting him.

I ruptured my left ACL in bed


Not ‘that’ way

When or after all day skiing, it needed to be strapped, still does occasionally.

If Baz is training it’s positive

Small blonde whippet? Think you’ll find that’s his sister

Pretty sure the girlfriend was terminated. The only person he’s had staying at his joint recently is Jamara.

Legit

Terrible news

Terrible news

Given the media's last reporting on the bruhn thing i will wait until there's something accurate this time.

What did they report that was inaccurate last time? He was never mentioned as being accused of anything, just that he was helping with an investigation wasn't he?

 

[UnitedWarrior93]

So this is a new incident? Or related to the Bruhn one?

Our club can’t go a week without being in the headlines at the moment.

The only headline I've seen about our club today is regarding Smith and the positive impact he's had since coming to the club, with Kelly even talking up his leadership credentials


There's zero in that article that specifies it's anything to do with the Geelong FC or which football club the player is question is from - it's simply that the incident occurred in the Geelong area

Not sure if anyone knows atm.

Being charged certainly isn't great.

Hopefully this has nothing to do with the GFC but I have no idea.
