Training today was at Punt Rd this morning. The last session in Melbourne as the final training session is in Perth on Thursday.
A pretty light session (for most of them) as they only trained for 30 mins and a few guys were missing.
We spoke to the head physio and he said Thursty's shoulder will be fine. He may still need an op on his AC but his injury isn't too dissimilar to Sarge's a few years ago and he's had no problems since. Newy said he'll be fine although he was still not 100%. Jacko (ankle) and Edwards (eye) trained fully. I was late to training so I didn't see Cuz but he was out there signing autographs. Ch 10 said he didn't train but apparently he'll still play on Friday night because he wants to against his old club at Subi. Foley also came out to sign some autographs. He's just got off his crutches although he's still hobbling.
Those I saw training today were - Rainesy, Simmo, Polly, Jack, Edwards, McMahon, Polo, McGuane, Newy, Rance, Putt, Morton, Tuck, JON, Jacko, Cogs, Hislop, Vickery, Tambo, Thomson, Gourdis, White, Silvester, Post, Nahas, Connors, Moore, Browne, Gus, Gilly and King.
As I said most had a light session. King and Hislop were given a faair workout sprinting back and forth along a line of the centre square. They were both totally stuffed coming off. Poor Hislop struggled to get the lid off the texter when asked for an autograph and the kid had to do it for him
. A lesson in not getting yourself suspended.
We asked Cogs and Rainesy if they were playing this week and both didn't know. They didn't look that happy either but that could be reading too much into their demeanour.
