Training 2025 Training Updates | Standards are… TBC

[roos 10]

Not injured, just having a chat and couldn't be arsed.

Pulled the fake inj before getting dropped

The level of comfort on that board would be something unmatched.

The hardest conversation they’d be having, is which spirit animal they feel best suits their personality.

Love this. A future tribute definitely required and mentally (for what that's worth lol) noted and 'escrowed'.

...not sure we can go a Male President in our current guise, would open up a can of worms for which, I'm not sure we have the stomach.

Just want to clarify that the TBC in the thread title stands for: 2025 Training Updates Standards are Truely Bloody Crap

[kool kangas]

Pulled the fake inj before getting dropped

he was limping when walking off the ground after the game and his left thigh was strapped up so l would be saying maybe out with a "corkie" . l dont care what excuse it is just as long as he is out this weekend.

Wardlaw and Souva both training

Anyone got more reports from this morning? I've come to love the Thursday speculation based on who is wearing pink or blue.

Logue and Daniel were both in blue. WDawson, Powell, Matlock and Payne were in pink.

Duursma was also in the blue and in the defensive half.

Wardlaw and Souva both training

They both play & we are a good shot of winning.

Powell out for Wardlaw would be interesting.

(Probably won't happen though)

Only if they're healthy.

Larkey's knee situation stresses me out. I worry that we're playing him to salvage some relatively meaningless wins to put a bandaid over the axe-wound that is our season.

I was there again.

• W. Dawson and Geordie Payne were in Pink, Logue was in Blue.
• Duursma half back for blue, Harvey half-forward for Pink.
• Larkey was out there, seemed ok. Knee still strapped.
• Wardlaw was in the middle for Blue, but wasn’t very impressive. A bit laconic.
• Don’t think Simpkin was training,
• Ford was out there in the backline for Pink but a bit tentative and paying attention to his hamstring.
• Generally higher intensity than I’ve seen in other sessions.
• Again a lot of chatter, clearly a focus.
• Maley was practicing speccies in the personalized skills session at the end. Would prefer he was working on bodywork and acceleration on the lead.

 

[Passmore]

Powell started match sim in pink. Switched to blue half way.

Simpkin trained but left track before match sim started.

The session started sloppy, but after a spray from Corr, then a team regroup, intensity increased.

There were at least 3 VFL players out there. One solidly built kid with long hair has been there the last few weeks. Can’t recall his name, but I’ve seen him in Maddie’s snaps.

Good to see everyone getting around Pink after his new contract

Can you imagine the uproar in this thread if he was eating a few dim sims, bigfooty might actually go offline for a few hours!

Daniel in blue

Blue means 1’s pink means 2’s? Or is there no correlation? Because this doesn’t excite me

There's not always correlation, but it's usually a good indicator. Especially for those in blue.

I can't recall many instances of someone who trained in blue for the entirety of match-sim then wasn't in the team that week. Occasionally you'll get a couple of players who trained in pink in the team.

 

[King Corey]

FYI saw Corr at Shoppingtown.

Collar was down.

He means business.

Earlier post had Dawson in pink so likely he gets dropped
