Beautiful day here at the hanger. There’s a few watching on so hopefully there should be some quality training reports.
Only Shiel and Ridley running laps in the second oval. There’s a couple of umpires here so hopefully we get to watch a match sim at some stage.

The Ridley situation puzzling. Club sources were indicating no injury, just managing soreness. Now not trained I think for two weeks. IMO, he obviously did his calf. Might be minor but I’m suspicious of the downplaying of the injury. A pity because he was training strongly to Christmas.

If he is still running then I’d say it is very much at the minor end of the scale.
I think calf was mentioned previously but it is obviously minor.

He’s come back from a major quad injury. They’re being rightfully cautious. He’s by far our most important player.

Ridley looks fit it must be just a niggle. Looks like the game is about to start. Draper has been training with the main group and looks likely to take part in the game.

Black versus Reds. Black team took like the probables for round 1 to my eye.
Forward line of 2MP, Lang, Jones, Menzies, Gresh and Perkins
Baldwin and Lav in the red backline

Great way to start a Saturday morning with a new thread beginning with ‘Training …’
Can’t wait for the reports and analysis.

Yeah and perhaps Stringer or Caddy etc as part of rotations in best 22/23
Agree. I’m wondering if all the blitzers present are known to each other or are spread around with phones in their hands

Full ground transition for the black team results in 2MP mark and goal.

Marto starts the chain at half back and now kicks the goal.
Doesn’t matter where he plays he’s involved.
