Training 2024 training updates.

[petrie pie]

I love the idea of picking 1-2 via the same route as Leggy.

I think we did very well last year with Oleg and Oscar cannot complain about those sort of picks.

So now the drafts are done.
Monday training starts, and we'll see which players are training with us for a SSP spot on the list.

Could be quite intriguing to see who ends up involved.
As far as I know, the only names we have so far are Eyre & Kelly?

Sam Sofronidis is aother ive heard a whisper about

 

[stormskye]

For the life of me I cannot understand inviting Kelly to train.

He’s been with the club since 2018. What are we going to learn that’s new from a few weeks training? I’ll be shocked if it’s true. Just makes no sense.

Eyre I thought looked decent before injury, happy to give him a crack

 

[legendstatus]

Eyre, is he the tall left foot defender from the seconds? I also know a few guys from the VAFA (good pedigree) and say they don't rate SS, plays lose, not physical and a bit lazy (their comments) be interesting to see how this develops.

The SA boy who's 18 (Weckert I think) I get its highlights but wonder why he isn't on a list now, looks quite solid and plays like a quicker Lynch?

I like the idea of 3 spots open and invites to fight for it, good way to test out a few Talls.

I am 100% sure that Sofranidis will be training with us, as well a Eyre and Kelly

I heard Blake Coleman, but it might have been me shouting at a cloud at the time…

Who is this sofa bloke?

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

I am once again asking for the source confirming we have invited Kelly, Eyre and Sofronidis to train.

What time is training Jen..I think I'll need to make the trek. Seriously having footy withdrawals.

From last preseason memory, it should be 9am.

It is yet to be confirmed, all speculation and guesswork currently. Posters are just theorising and discussing until the club makes a formal announcement.

It will be confirmed Monday when all 3 turn up. There's no theorising here. I'll just wait till then

194cm very athletic defender from the amateurs

I thought so. Just seems like people read a tweet from PieSource and taking it as fact.

I did have a quick google. He could do with a couple of weights sessions .

Reminded me of one of my fav Dennis commeti lines, “he’s been doing weights in the pre season with calista flockhart”

I hope we invite him to train with us, have no idea who we have our eye on this preseason to add to list but he is talented.
No idea why he wasn’t given a chance somewhere .

 

[sr36]

I heard Blake Coleman, but it might have been me shouting at a cloud at the time…

No chance. He runs like Ginnivan.

 

[Obese Arachnid]

No chance. He runs like Ginnivan.

Only useful if you're trying to dig a well?

 

[The Royal Sampler]

No chance. He runs like Ginnivan.

Yeah, that does seem to be a sticking point.

Bring back Dennis, that was a golden age of commentary!

 

[magpies42]

I like the sound of Eyre, seems like fitness issue are at play here. Not odd for young athletic talls, sometimes they just need some time to grow into their bodies. We had similar issues with Moore.

Not sure bringing Kelly back is the right idea. Has not shown he can play KP.

 

[Bianconeri]

No sources, just vibes

 

[Exambolor]

Well if it is true, I hope we sign Eyre and Sonfronidis as our certain SSP signings, gives us some more depth at both ends.

And good thing too that we’re leaving one spot for the MSD, we probably have the best overall record in successful picks there in the league. If we could find another Carmy, AJ or JFN that would be gold
