Open training sessions 10am Tuesday (tomorrow) and 10am Saturday. Will anyone be attending?

I have taken the week off this week, so I am thinking about heading down tomorrow. I have never been to an open training session before, is there parking available in Yarra Park? Do the players take the time to sign merch/take photos etc?
 
Hopefully Yarra Park might be opened for this so we have somewhere to park. I can see Punt Rd needing to accommodate a few thousand on Saturday.

I,m going down Saturday morning Ive never been to one either and i want to get something from the superstore ,kill 2 birds so to speak . I reckon there will be thousands there to cheer the boys on, i just want to soak up as much of all of this as i can
 
Could those who go give us the low down ? Cheeers in advance :thumbsu:

P.S Have a great time & really enjoy the experience :)
 
Ill be there on Saturday and about 10 mates who also said they are keen to come. Im thinking about 7-8,000 will go down. Any news on how many might go RFC_Official?

This will give them a good trial for accommodating crowds with VFL games played there next year.

Popped down this morning. What a cracking day to be outside! Training session itself was very low key. More of a hit and giggle than a full on session. Matt White trained away from the main group which is a worry I think.
A few of the boys walked around the boundary line signing autographs afterwards including Cotch, Morro, Brandon, Griff, Elton, Aaron Edwards, Tucky and Rance. Was hoping Newy would because I've got 2 Dreamtime jumpers with his number 17 on them that I want signed. All the boys looked relaxed and were very friendly and happy to do photos and chat etc.

Grandstand is closed. No idea how the club will accomodate the numbers I'm sure will roll up on Saturday unless they plan on opening it.

Looked like Whitey was doing some kind of fitness test? Seemed to be going alright. Jack and Newy were with the main group and were looking good. Interesting to see Chris Knights running laps seemingly in no pain. Thought his knee was cooked?

Running laps is not the same as switching directions and pushing off hard on your knee.
 
From watching training today I do not think White will play on Sunday, he looked extremely flat training away from the group.
