Main Training today:

I'll start by saying have not seen the earlier session this week so there might be one or two players that are on ice and only training once a week.

So bearing that in mind:

Both Astbury & Grimes didn't train today.

Shai left the track late with the Doctor in tow, looked to be a bit worried around the hammy area.

Rioli had no strapping on knee or quad for the first time in about 5 weeks and Flossy was out there. Neither were flying but it would be more about just getting these boys to the line.
 
Lynch and Dusty didnt do knees at training.

the gods are smiling on us.

Thanks Ceasar
 
Shai was running fine in the Captain's Run this morning so all looks good.

All other participants there and accounted for.

Good to hear, it could even be they are on different programs & given our injury list may have scaled some back just to get everyone through at this point.
 
Most VIBRANT training session of the year today, (yes folks Lenno is back :) ).

Cannot believe I am saying this but pretty much all good news:

Riewoldt completed full session with main group and was jumping out of his skin, just happy to be out there.
All of the named ins trained strongly and no one left the track early.
Rance doing some fancy rehab footwork and ran laps.
Nank the same and some low impact tap work.
Marlion, pin free, did some warm up sprints with main group and laps, excited by big body and smooth mover and looks quick.
Ross running laps.
Moore just walked a lap so furthest away.
English trained fully with main group.
The VFL boys Balta Garth RCD Higgo not training due to playing tomorrow.

Bonus Perspective

Watched the session with a player's dad, here are a couple of his thoughts:

Didn't know if his son would hold his spot this week.

Said Shai has to play and in his opinion is a superior player to Rioli, Butler & Castagna, (i agreed as anyone who read my Shai posts would attest).

Reckons when Nank gets back he sees Mabs as the ideal verstile & mobile foil.
