Great photos as usual Pete, love your work.

 

[PatientMental]

Few blokes getting in early for the economic recession with some of their own.

Lukosius with a hairline thatd make vegeta blush.

Wowee

 

[Doctor Feel]

Zerg hatcher and both cochranes in the rehab group. Zerg is just perma injured. Thank god for Ramm.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Did we get Valteri Bottas as a train on?

Gotta respect the last crop of coaches who were okay with bringing bog average injury prone blokes in to sure up our key positions

Hopefully we move on quickly from that shit show

 

[PJ Power]

Thanks Pete.

So no Ratugolea, BZT, Durdin, Stephenson, Liddy, Jones, Sinn or JHF in the match sim. Hopefully they’re mostly minor injuries

Worries me that JHF was limping while jogging a fair bit a week back when I was watching, and reports today suggest he's still limping as he runs.

Got a real bad feeling about his season.

Got a real bad feeling about his season.

Is it the limping? Or the fact after over 6 months, multiple setbacks, multiple surgeries he isnt actually training still and the clubs saying 'she'll be right'

There's surely a 0% chance he lines up in the first month of the season.

Great pictures as usual Power Plus.

So from that scoreboard photo, 33 of the 42 listed players played.

Black has 17 of their 22 players on the list ie Zadow, Smith + Kempe, Hill and Elbrow are fill ins
White has 16 of their 21 players on the list ie Cavallaro, BOB, Rome Burgoyne, O'Brien and Thompson are fillins

Players I know are missing because of surgeries/Injuries 3 - JHF, SPP and Tom Cochrane

Players missing and I don't know why 6 - BZT, Esava, Jones, Liddy, Moss and Barratt.

Anyone know why the 6 I listed are missing?? Why wasn't Stephenson playing? Injury? gone back to Melbourne?

Here's a few above walking laps

 

[Sewer de Lance]

Lai matching up on Georgie in the match sim is an interesting one.

Overall, the playing group look stronger around the core.

For JHF to still be running laps in late January after being wrapped up in cotton wool in July last year, is bordering on incompetence.

Couple of unofficial reports around the place talked up Berry and Brodie

This article which Ford linked explains a few of the outs, not sure about the others:

Swingman Todd Marshall and captain Connor Rozee both went off with arm issues during the first half, before returning to action in the second.
Defender Lachie Jones, who had been managing a knee issue, reintegrated into the main group but did not play in the match simulation.
Jason Horne-Francis was again running laps as part of his recovery from foot surgery in November, but was expected to play some pre-season matches.
Backman Brandon Zerk-Thatcher remains sidelined with a bruised heel.

SETBACK FOR SPP​

Forward Sam Powell-Pepper has had a minor knee procedure, six months after his second anterior cruciate ligament rupture.
Powell-Pepper underwent an arthroscopy to reduce knee discomfort, likely caused by scar tissue.
The 28-year-old is still expected to return mid-season.
In a statement, Port Adelaide said the procedure was not uncommon for athletes recovering from ACL injuries.
“It was decided a clean out of scar tissue was necessary to resolve the discomfort, push towards end stage and return to training in this phase of rehab,” it said

Ok that covers Jones and BZT of the mystery 6, so info needed on Esava, Liddy, Moss and Barratt. Also Stephenson's situation.

 

[SureBuddy]

For the first time in ages I genuinely have zero clue how our best 23 will look come round 1.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Moss falling off the radar. Hasnt had a heap of proper training. Been doing laps for a while now.
