Training 2025 Training reports & Updates.

[Smackdos]

Ok so we have had some Tuesday training positive news which has been nice to read.
Doesn't always end well though in terms of getting our hopes up, wait for flys presser to reassure us with Bobby and Beau.. massive if we can put that speed back in our side for this week.

Also great to see Howey make an appearance after his nasty collision.

Both Beau and Bobby will need to get through training this week to possibly be selected, but it's a positive step.

If Bobby and Beau play then we're at basically full strength outside Howe

The forecast is for rain which softens the blow of missing Howe (it rained last time we played Adelaide and we played them without Moore)

Feeling a lot better about our chances if Bobby and Beau play and it rains

There’s no rain forecast at all, might get some Friday but otherwise it’s been dry since the Showdown.

Oh, ok fair enough. I thought I saw someone post there was rain forecast.

Oh well, damn lol

edit: I just checked BOM and there's rain forecast for Saturday "high chance of showers, most likely later in the day"

It would be ideal to have them play two games before finals from a match-fitness point of view, but not totally necessary; Nick was out for many weeks before he marched back into the team in 2023. Our fitness team have experience here so I'm confident both will be ready come finals and so will Howie.

Nick is pretty special though. It's hard to compare humans with him.

I use Accuweather as it uses multiple weather models (not just BOM which is highly unreliable). As I was typing this their forecast has updated to say some possible rain too haha, so who the **** knows!

Howe has always slotted back in seamlessly after missing with injury

Bobby spent 10 mins after training talking to Wade and fly. Then he got a comforting pat on the shoulder.

 

[Jen2310]

He’s back. Sorta

What do you think that means? What was your impression?

Didn’t give me a good vibe. But we shall see on Thurs

 

[Jen2310]

no Jordy today. But could be load management- he was there yesterday

 

[yeah man]

Swoop left some footage of this moment at the end of today's training video - here

It looked more like they were discussing training loads and path forward etc. Maybe not as ominous as you're implying, but it could mean his fitness just needs a lot of work if he wants to play against Adelaide.

He might be sub again.

 

[yeah man]

He might be sub again.

Yeah this is more in line with what that discussion looked like. The hand on the shoulder might have been more of a "you're almost there mate, keep it up"

 

[sr36]

He might be sub again.

They were discussing what weights he's been lifting to decide whether he's the best match up we've got to play KPD on Thilthorpe.

He’s back. Sorta

Charlie looks older, as if he's gone from a boy to a man in just a few weeks.
Is that a thing with males?
I had daughters so didn't get to observe close up.

It's hard to tell without getting him to drop his shorts and cough.

It took me till age 35 to transition from boy to man so I can't help you. Having 2 daughters doesn't help either

Happened overnight with my step son, he was a chubby 14 year old, then he was lanky male model. Cars were pulling up on the street asking him for dates, he had to tell them he was still a schoolboy.

I always have women pull up on the street and tell me I'm poisoning the environment with my unattractive looks.

 

[Hugg]

I can't believe you have the insensitivity to post that. There are people dying in wars that aren't being mentioned enough.

Woke

 

[domus]

Word from some is Degoey has had an injury set back. Only read it in comments under Swoop Luke's training video. Says Dwayne Russell believes Degoey will not play. Hill and McCreery also expected to miss.

If true, we are pushing crap uphill.

I hope that's just some bs.
