The physio looks like a young pup just out of uni. Don't know what depth of involvement he had with other teams but hope our guys are well looked after. L plate coach with L plate staff.

He's actually had a good little career in the AFL prior to coming. He sounds like the burger flipping kid from the Simpson's I'll give you that!

If McGregor is a goner after 2017 then these new guys are all going to be swept away on the tide when the new coach brings his own staff in.
So therefore if the above is true how much can they achieve in 1 year or if the above is not true then Mc Gregor is staying for a lot longer than 1 year.

God help us

Good to see dodd back at light training he will be a while before he's ready.
Herbert also bad hand injury they take a while to fully heal.
Lucky no permanent damage.

Love to hear where Glymin is at with his rehab.
He was on the verge of repeat games in 1st grade and a real speedster so wondering what the game plan is for him as he appears to be the forgotten man as far as wingers are concerned.

OT he's training but not fully.
He's training with the rehab boys.
He has had something like 5 or 6 hammy injuries and 3 were major.
So slowly slowly I think.
Hopefully able to play some part in the trails. Imo

I think he got injured falling down the pecking order...

...but seriously, harsh luck on the kid but I think he's been jumped in the que by Herbert as a minimum, and chances are Garrick and Isaac Thompson will jump him soon. Not holding out much hope of seeing him in first grade.

Agree Benny
Let hope Herbert quickly recovers for his injured hand.
I think he is the future.
Do you think so

 

[coast_dragons]

Thompson for mine is very lazy at times.

When he is focused he is nearly impossible to stop but he also lacks discipline.
