Training Thread - 10/5/08

[Beloved]

I couldn't find a thread for todays training session, so I figured I may aswell start one up now. I attended the session today (sadly, as I had to get up too early for a Saturday!), so if anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.

Did the boys who are playing tonight train?

Nah mate, Waite, Judd and Fevola were missing in action, aswell as a few other boys (from the top of my head, the most notable being Stevens and Kreuzer).

 

[RiCHii]

Any reason for the absences of those 2 boys? Injuries?

No injuries mate, i'd suspect they would have just been given the day off to relax a little bit, as the other injured blokes (D.A, Banno, Thorny and Haddles) were all there.

Ooh, before I forget, Bannister reckons that he probably wont be up and ready for the clash against Brisbane, but will make a strong push for selection against Fremantle.

Hadley was with the injury group, they mostly did reflex training and a few small sprints. I think he went in at around the half way mark.

Both Ackland and Hammer were not there.

Ellard was good, his disposal was average but he's looking the goods.

How long do you think Thornton will be out for, was he training at all today. Do you think Hadley will be fit and ready for the clash againt Brisbane?

Was C.Cloke on the park at all ?

Thornton had his leg strapped pretty damn tightly, had a brace on it infact, estimations would be 4 or 5 weeks at best. Hadley looks as though he could play, he was running around a fair bit. I reckon' he probably needs another week on the track to get his skills ready, but it's not out of the question.

Clokey wasn't at training today.

 

[RiCHii]

Our injuries to date is disappointing

Did Hartlett train?

I think Hartlett has injured his hamstring.

I think Hartlett has injured his hamstring.

Too right, and to clarify, Harts wasn't on the track.

As you can imagine, it was a pretty small group!

 

[Effes]

I think Hartlett has injured his hamstring.

That's why I was asking, EBIAC didn't mention him in the injury group.

I'm really sick of people hanging shit on Stevens. Seriously, it's just pathetic.

 

[Blue Dawn]

So let me get this straight - no Fev, Judd or Waite (as expected). But no Cloke, Stevens, Aisake, Walker - no Thornton, Anderson, no Hampson or Ackland. Was ANYBODY actually training!?

 

[Blueinblood]

The VFL boys wouldnt have trained

 

[HBF]

Sounds like a pretty small group there.
Good to see the club have given the boys a quiet week, to allow them to freshen up.
