I wouldnt mind hearing from anyone who watched training this morning and get some information on who trained well, who looks like they may be likely to take the next step and any other information that may be interesting to know.

Must have been a skeleton running around then, would have been happy if he had put on 8 kg, not lost them, will be very easy to push him off the ball now.

Have a look at this from people who were actually there & attend regularly.

Interesting who was "the pick of the bunch".

Calling Lance "Prenda" is a compliment? :eek:

Yeah I know, must have been due to his "athleticisim" but let's hope his skills haven't gone down to the level of Prendergast.

Thanks for the tip BlueWorld, this is a great site, anywhere that information can be obtained is valuable... Also good to hear that Houla is training well, we all know the talent he has but he is now at the age where he needs to go to the next level and consistently deliver. Also Josh Kennedy seems to be impressing everyone, his work rate and attitude are absolute standouts at the moment - imagine when he is fully fit!

How has Justin Davies pre-season been so far, he looks the goods whenever Pagan actaully plays him, I reakon he would be right up there for tackles per minutes played, doesn't seem to get on the ground much, when picked, but often leads the side in tackles.

IMO Macca, Justin is going to be one of those players who does well in the VFL, but just can't quite make it in the AFL. He's been given plenty of chances and one suspects that 2006 will be his last year at Carlton.

I don't think he has been given many chances, hey may have played a fair few games, but doesn't get enough ground time to make an impact. IMO he should plat most games as a defensive forward pocket. He is excellent at the 1%'ers and is capable of kicking goals in the process, would be a shame if he was delisted. I think he is one of 8 players left on the list since Pagan took over, so he must be doing something right in Pagan's eyes.
