Lots of running, measuring and recording. They were at Casey today sweating it out in the heat. Blake is up and about and ready to go.

Has anyone turned up who don't need to be there yet ?? I am thinking that Siposs and Simpkin may not be 1-4 anymore but would most likely be wanting to do everything they can this year

Ideally draftees would be training now with the 1-4 year players.

Another example of the AFL putting PR& Media before practicality.

Fair point they finish 14 November.
So I guess they cant bring it forward by much. Maybe only 2 days.

Theycould have made the draft on 20-11-14, a week earlier than it is, without upsetting anything.

Whats a week. Give the kids a chance to enjoy their last year of schooling. Why does anyone even care when the draft is? These kids will have enough time to do training over the next 5 to 10 years. One week means jack.
