Training For 2023

Think you’re suffering from premature evaluation.
Neither have kicked a ball in anger
Nonsense, they are champions in the making.
It’s going to be really hard to pick a team next year after picking 9 new stars in the last 2 years.

Thursday Training:

Longest training session to date.

Lynch not doing much.
Tarranto pretty much back into it.
Forgot in previous posts to say that Collina hasn't been training and was walking laps with Graham today.
Still no Shai but similar to Marlion will be back after break.

Wouldn't be picking up Narkle too lazy and casual at training for my liking.
Bradtke worth a shot on viewings so far.
An unknown Maori kid training with us today.

Most Interesting inside word, (even though it could be a little biased):

Met a bloke who was over from WA on business today who was watching training and is best mates with Kaleb Smith's dad and their kids played footy together etc.
Said Geelong and Swans had the strongest interest but he was hoping Freo picked him, Richmond only meet him once earlier in the year and then kept mum, so contrary to views expressed here gleaned from family draft video, they had no idea that Richmond were picking him.
The guy reckon's he is quick, (did sprinting when younger), can stand on heads and when he puts on a pit of size could play midfield, he kicked 5 goals from the midfield to win a game in junior footy. Also said he could play half forward as he has great hands and knows where the goals are.
About 181cm and he doesn't think he will grow anymore.
Was injured most of year so maybe clubs didn't get a real good look at him.
Great kid, good attitude.
Went to schoolies but got up each morning for an 8km jog.

That's all today folks have got other things to do.


Cheers
Great work Caeasar.

Interesting that Teal is also now at Punt Road, he trained at the club last season too didnt he?

The 25-year-old (Narkle) produced some eye-catching moments in the rain on Thursday and has made an impressive start to his trial at Punt Road Oval.
Sparkle Narkle come on down

I recall reading somewhere that Narkle is a very close and long standing friend of Shai Bolton. Is that correct?
I wonder whether he has had a lot to do with it ?
Not advocating for him but the best footy I saw him play was the first half of the 2019 prelim. Followed the rest of the Cats into 2nd half oblivion however !!

I thought of this, as soon as he was delisted. Good friends with both Shai and Rioli

Are you saying it's like you need to sign the two bad Cloke's to get the one good one;)
Maybe that is why Shai hasn't signed a 7 year extension yet:)

My apologies they actually were there but yesterday when it was basically fine, my bad, i still didn't see the Narkle sparkle though.

They did a podcast from Punt Road.
