I spoke to one of the fitness coordinators at training today and he said Foley will be right for round 1 .
He said Foley just rolled his ankle (common outside of the ankle sprain) during the Brisbane game and the good thing was because it was a preseason game they didn't have to get him back out on the ground as you would during the real stuff. So Axel is fine. They are keeping the weight of his foot all this week (hence the crutches) so the ankle heals fully in time for Thursday week.
Thank gawd for that!
Also went to training today but didn't see Axel at all
Of note.
Kane Johnston sat and watch training, I didnt see him doing any training!
Connors and Thompson ran laps
Vickery had to rest at the end but was training well enough
Cotchin has has ankle foot iced up
Hislop left the track early
Petts moved reasonably well by had a slight limp
Cogs was the best result of the day for me as he looked sharp and participated in the full training sesion from what I could see.
Tambling was sharp by foot
Patto looked good
In summary, the boys looked sharp with their skills and were all look marathon fit.
