Meanwhile down on page 4.
Dropped in this morning to watch 2 x 20+ minute stints. (Forgot to close the back car door and got yelled at by the car.)
Rehab:
- Josh G and "The Tap" walking laps. Josh G. stopped and chatted. Is up, ahead of schedule and bouncy. Loves BC's.
- Tom L and Jacob B doing slow run throughs. Tom looking positive.
- Jayden doing 3/4 pace 100 meter run throughs. Had a set number he had to do and just motored through them.
- James T and Noah B doing 80% to 100% run throughs. 75 metre and 100 metre. All straight line. Noah still favouring a leg at times (not the taped up one). James T going pretty much flat out.
- Dion did at least some of the main training, the non-contact stuff, and then did run throughs.
Training
- Watched 3 separate drills. Skills and overlap running was the focus. Everybody heavily engaged and running/working hard. The guys looked very bouncy.
- No real stand outs. Skills were a focus especially on 30 to 40 meter kicks.
- Forward entry followed by a shot for goal was also a key focus.
- Oliver Hayes Brown was out there.
Things I did notice:
- In one contested mark situation Tom B. bodied up well and out marked Ben Miller. Ben was unimpressed.
- Noah C. heavily involved and getting lots of support.
- MJR took a number of strong overhead marks and also focussed on set shot goal kicking between drills.
- Mykelti acts more like he belongs and is louder and demanding the ball.
- Matt C. has sublime kicking skills.
