Simpkin was sitting out the full ground work, and didn't spot him during the stupid tackling drill / get your ass out of trouble drill they seemed to be practicing.
In said silly drill, Higgins made everyone looks stupid. No one got near him, just too much talent.
Wood, Mountford, Hibberd, MacMillan, MacDonald and Garner all look huge. Like not just a little big, but ******* Monstrously deformed big. Garner was sprinting laps to the point of near death. And has a set of of shoulders / Ass on him now that will make him even more of a weapon than he already is.
Durdin looks really good, seemed very relaxed and part of the group, very happy and has wonderful mobility for a guy not much smaller than Goldy. The sooner we just stick the freak at CHB and build our team around him the better.
Didn't see McKay as I was more on the side of the ground where the mids/smaller forwards were.
I think we can put a line through Wright and Jacobs being anywhere near fit for round 1.
Preuss out marking Goldy with aplomb was a sight, I'm sorry, he is awesome and I can't wait to see him crack a few heads when he gets his chance. Easily the most underrated talent on our list. Could be ANYTHING.
Hrovat is the other that is just a solid little campaigner, has a set of thighs on him that Serena would be proud of, but most importantly hits targets and doesn't lose his feet. Good player, possibly being underrated by a few, I reckon he is a dead set certainty for round 1.
Other than that, JMac looks fantastic, his movement through traffic and high skill level should see him take his talents to the wing this year and possibly even further up the ground. Can football can our JMac.
Ground is in diabolical condition, ******* amateur hour to have so much talent running around on a beach. We aren't ******* Darren Weir. We need to sort it out.
