Any sign of the Daicoi yet?

They're both still in the US, judging by their sm.

 

[No SPIN]

Easy solution, get off social media

He did - but the damage was done.

I was chatting to Glenn Mcfarlane about this, and its definitely raising eyebrows thats for sure
Nick is actually required to be here. Definitely got some special attention lol

And he's back on social media.

How dumb is that!

Raising eyebrows with who? I wouldn't be paying attention to raised eyebrows from a Herald Sun journo, regardless of how friendly he is towards Collingwood.

Many of the players are positively interacting with his social media content so it can't be raising eyebrows internally.

Just that its quite unusual.

I'm sure the club's more than fine with it. Nick carried the whole team last year. What's an extra week or 2. Not like he's let himself go & hasn't been training all off season anyway

He'll probably kayak home from America

We attended training today and it was a light skills session with only a couple of things worth reporting:
Tom Mitchell is in great nick and that is great news for all of us.

looks to be fully recovered.

I spent the session keeping a close eye on Reef McInnes. There's been some chat about him playing back after not impressing as a forward. He trained well, but I can't find a spot for him to be honest. I wish him and Macrae well and hope that I'm wrong about both of them, but I'll be very surprised if either turns things around significantly.

Yeah but he could have scheduled this trip weeks ago. He's had 3 months off, thats plenty of time.
By the rules, he is meant to be here.

I imagine it would be the spot Dean, frampton are also vying for. There is one available.

Jesus, I wouldn't be concerned about Nick. He couldn't reschedule the UFC fight yesterday

I'm sure he got the okay from the club. He'll come back super refreshed & we'll need him to be.

Probably extra reward for his side kick job as our exceptional new recruiter.

At least he'll back on monday
Thats when everyone has to be back.

Thanks for that, Apples.
I'd think they'll be hoping Reef can show some good VFL form in the role for now.
Realistically, he's competing with Charlie Dean in the depth chart at the moment.

Or the pre-season games, but he looks a natural down there. It could be the switch that saves his career.

Plenty of senior players are not doing very much at this stage.
Cameron turned up today in civvies and hung around for a while and then drove home. Darcy Moore

ditto, but he said he had a meeting to attend.
There was no Pendles, Sidey, Elliott, WHE, McStay, McCreery, Bobby Hill, Markov.
I'm sure the Daicos boys requested the time and were granted the time by the coaches. It's a non issue, regardless of what a few journos think.

DC went to get a scan, prob precautionary, with the knock he got a couple days ago.
Bucks was around training too.

 

[Jen2310]

Frampton trained forward for most of today which was interesting.

If he's there because of his Monster sponsorship he's probably on their schedule, which would have needed to be approved by the club. No need for the finger wagging.

Bit to play out, but surely that puts Cox on notice

Lets see if it continues, or just a one off session. But would be interesting. He was doing some ruck work too.

He carried our whole midfield on his back this year, if anyone deserves the extra break it’s him.
