Jackson I think with a knee injury carried over from last season?
Pretty sure Walsh was injured late last year and it’s carryover from that?

If we we're honest about where we are all three draftees are getting runs early.

Soldo and Visentini have had like 3-4 month injury recoveries from their knee operations, but are nearly there. Farrell ditto for his Hammy.

Bergman is similar. Will be in time and space and just randomly kick to an opposition player in 30m of space. Both are generally good enough by foot if they can sort out the brain farts.

Burgoyne still on a wing?
I haven't seen any word on Jackson or Walsh in terms of injuries. Maybe both tested poorly on return to the club last week?

Graham on the areas of focus
“Yeah, just building on, so they were already at a strong level, but our ability to repeat speed. We've brought in some new testing to test that, and we've also targeted our gym, particularly our upper body strength, which we've wanted to make some changes in there, and both have improved.”
Houston's replacement for AliExpress Jones has Hinkley's magnet board written all over it.
I say that re Houston role as often he was the one to try and kick over the zone
Either for goal or a deep one on one
Rather than try and execute a short inside 15m kick
(What one of the drills was essentially for and the turnover rate was high)

The whole body composition looks completely different, still thick legs, but waistline and torso doesn’t look bulky in pictures. He is elite by foot, if him and Farrell are delivering the pill inside 50, we will quickly forget about how bad the Houston trade was on our behalf.
Surprised Richards is as small as he is, knew he was slight, but the Black and White stripes definitely made him appear taller.

Part of the problem with the gameplan was the need for a "Houston role". We shouldn't be relying on getting the ball every time into the hands of one elite kick to make game breaking passes.
Be like Brisbane where any of the defenders can rebound off and hit up simple kicks to players running through the midfield to deliver into an open forward line.

There is a difference between kicking ability and vision.
One is being able to execute. One is knowing what to execute.
The elites like Houston have vision, then back it up with execution. There is a cap on how far most players can get for this reason.

Lachie Jones for Captain
Too early in training to draw conclusions & trust them. But if you think he will develop grit under Hinkley think again.
Edit: that was actually a conclusion
