Good stuff WP  :cheers. Jacko has definitely beefed up.

Is Petts training fully and how did Cogs look to you?

great work WP!

some questions for you ...

who was wearing No.9 with the blonde hair?

who was wearing No.27?

did Hislop and Thomson train?

was Post wearing No.37 and Vickery wearing No.38?

word around that Graham is "massive"?

and who is the only player (Friday's Training) that wasn't born in Australia? :)

Lids looks HUGE on the right
I reckon he's going to rip games apart in 2009

I went down to have a look. Very wet day, but nice to walk around Punt Road. I wish Richmond played one game a year there...

 - I thought Patto looked in good nick. Bit less unco than normal and with a solid body. Forget sometimes he is only 22, quite young for ruckman. He would be tall if he didn't hunch over so much.
 - I like Thomson. Looks strong.
 - Gus is indeed a massive lump of person. Hughes is big. The old feller infront of me was with happy with the size of Shane Edwards.
 - Lids is fast. Looks well put together these days, mini turbo charged Kouta with shaved heads.
 
I thought it was abit average over all. The players did not train very long. And it is a joke there is a cricket cover on the pitch.

*I will try to get a couple pics up

Didn't see Petts

Cogs looked fit, still not much penetration in his kicking (NB in Friday's weather kicking skills weren't great at times)


who was wearing No.9 with the blonde hair? Mitch Moton

who was wearing No.27? Hislop

did Hislop and Thomson train? yep

was Post wearing No.37 and Vickery wearing No.38? correct

word around that Graham is "massive"? I didn't notice much change from the season just gone to be honest

and who is the only player (Friday's Training) that wasn't born in Australia? :) trick question

Ta WP  :).

Cheers for the report Bents. They don't train at Punt Rd for the proper training sessions. It's just a better place for fans to watch as it has plenty of seating and supporters can sign up as members in the Tiger Den while they are there. A shame it was such a wet day.

Agree WP, Gus was pretty big last season and he doesn't look to have bulked up much more.
