Mega Thread TRAINING REPORTS

[Tazmania]

Rest No One

Agreed need to smash them for percentage like everyone else's has. We're only out of the top4 on %.

We're of of the few contenders who get two goes at them too which could come in very handy at the pointy end of the season.

Zac is replacing Griffin, not Silvagni.

Silvagni stays at CHF. Hannath moves to first Ruck. Clarke takes Hannath's spot at FF.

Good point. Big game for Silvagni imo ! They all are for him, because he has now become depth!
Also, the SCG is a very hard ground to play CHF on, because it is small end to end.
Hopefully he plays a good game, less chance of brain fades in the forward half than down back.

That'd be it.

 

[Quokka]

Zac is no natural forward though.
Where does this all leave Silvagni ??
In : Clarke, Fyfe
Out : Griffin, Silvagni (if Clancee is ok) !

I'm hoping Zac might be able to do enough in the forward line to help create space for Silvagni, who was good last week. Will be happy if with the extra tall he takes his opportunities and manages to kick 2 or 3 this week.

I'd expect that Clarke in means Dawson will stay in defense and his rucking prowess will be saved for the occasional surprise cameo but if Clarke isn't up for ruck duties and Hannath tires or is getting out competed too badly, it will mean that Dawson could do a bit of ruckwork with Silvagni covering in defense and Clarke still providing a tall target up forward.

We'll likely see Clarke come in a play ruck/forward switching with Hannath but if he's fit enough to run out the game Freo has a lot more options for changing it up or covering an injury.

Its been awhile since we've seen Clarke play and not expecting him to come in with a flyer but it's a big year for him and Freo need him to find form now. Really looking forward to Saturday, could give us a good indication of how close we are to top 4.

 

[yakka man]

On this years form Spurr is more important than Clancee. We can't afford to lose them both. Fingers crossed. Thanks for the reports champs.

Fremantle has rushed Zac Clarke back to AFL duty as they try to cover for a raft of injuries to tall players.
Clarke was included in the Dockers' travelling party heading to Sydney for Saturday's clash with the Swans.
A leg injury has sidelined Clarke for much of the 2013 campaign but with Jon Griffin, Aaron Sandilands and even back big man Kepler Bradley hurt, the Victorian's return was viewed as a priority for the Dockers

 

[Fred Ziffel]

Zac trained as mainly a forward. I'd say Hannath will be the main ruckman with Zac pinch hitting.

Probably Zac Dawson then like last week.

Ok so the Kep hunches a little but that still seems a little mean.

 

[Fred Ziffel]

That'd be it.

You'd think if they used Dawson to relieve in the ruck Silvagni would go to FB and Jack would go CHF.
Good way just to mix it up a bit especially if they intend to go easy on Clark with his first game back.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

Just walked to the ground at 1200 and was told they trained at 10ish and are on their way to the airport at 1200 so missed it all. But apparently was a short session. Bought some baby dockers gear for the new one about to arrive Indoctrinate them from birth

Congrats


I just had a baby girl 3 nights ago. Even though she is ineligible to play for Freo she can still support them with her dad.

I'm guesssing that all things are dependant on whether Mumford plays.

It may sound like that... You may have mistaken I mentioned that my wife fell pregnant about 9 months ago.

Thanks, yeah I ment my wife, it more than stung her.

Even if Mumford plays he may not be at full fitness. Lets hope so.

Congrats JMT

 

[Nickos66]

Onya JMT, pretty much 4 weeks to the day after my 2nd arrived. Also ineligible to pull on the jumper for the team due to gender.

The wife and I took our 9 month old daughter to the footy the other night, she loved it. Had her in a freo beenie and scarf too.

 

[mattis117]

Funniest thing happened during the last quarter, she was getting tired, so went to sleep in my wife's arms during the loudest part of the game. The guy next to her says goodluck getting her to sleep with this noise! She says she is already asleep, the guy was shocked that she could sleep when everyone (including me and the wife) cheering very loudly. Trained the kid well can sleep anywhere anytime - this sound familiar to freo somehow?
