The 29 Jan Training Thread

[MRB37]

CEY looks like he's gonna give Thommo a run for his money. Looking huge. Reckon he's the sort of big bodied mid they'll want in the guts to replace Danger.

 

[MRB37]

Saying that, CEY had botched 2 kicks pretty badly so far that I've seen.

Doedee's kicking looks really solid too.

Great work thus far MRB - many thanks.

Very curious for any info on Harry Wigg. Cheers

 

[MRB37]

Doing match sim now. Lots of quick ball movement, marking and playing on as quick as possible.

Haven't seen him yet, but they've been a lot of the drills on the opposite side of the oval.

 

[MRB37]

Nice move by Milera. Used his agility to beat out 2 guys then hit a leading Dear inside 50.

Can I ask who is standing Dear please? TIA!

 

[MRB37]

Just spotted Wigg. He's on the wing during the match sim.

Dunno about that play, but he's got Doedee on him ATM.

Edit: who just switched onto Tex and Cheney has taken Dear.

 

[MRB37]

Can easily see why they're pumping up Grigg so far. Been quite involved. Hampton has looked good too. Seedsman seemed to be playing a bit deeper in defense and using his kick to clear the half forward line a bit.

Cameron moved to the wing a few times too, had one nice passage where he beat Smith, took it down the boundary line, hit Tex 60m out who immediately turned around and hit a target inside 50.

 

[MRB37]

Alright. Got the forwards near me now. Time to see how Menzel goes.

 

[NikkiNoo]

Please keep your reports lengthy and over the top in terms of enthusiasm

Pity I had to work and have a uni session in the morning today otherwise this would have been a guarantee!

I'm getting more convinced that Thommo will start on the bench and be one of the the lesser mids in terms of minutes. We need to prepare our younger guys for next year and we want Thommo fighting fit and fresh in at least the 18 games he needs to get to 300. Calling it confidently now.

 

[MRB37]

Menzels got a radar for the goals for sure. Doing drills for the smalls. Ruck taps it to the midfield, who kick it inside 50, Walker or Jenkins then tap it down for Cameron or Menzel.

Is this the part where some idiot (me) says easy everyone we are talking about practice?!

That's the same drill I saw them doing in the pre-christmas training.

As fast as he can when he sprints

Not as fast when he jogs



Which Crouch?

We need to come up with an identifier so we know which is which in these amazing reports. Crouch should be Brad and BOB should be Matt.

 

[MRB37]

Someone on the ground getting worked on by the trainer ATM. Can't see who though.

Now these reports---these are THE big one's in training camp.

It was Ramsey it looked like. He's back up though. Seemed to be working on his lower back.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Hampton looking good. Got an extra gear on him to weave through the defenders and kick looks reliable too. Crouch nailing all his kicks too.

Which crouch?

 

[MRB37]

Just noticed but it looks like Douglas has spent the entire session watching from the sidelines too.

 

[MRB37]

Which crouch?

Brad.

Matt isn't with the main group, doing laps.

 

[MRB37]

Haven't noticed VB yet either too.

 

[AmericanCrow]

How does the practice look as compared to last year? Meaning anything noticeably different than from how Walshy ran camp?
