Astbury should be a certainty was there with main group today.

Got to training basically as they were finishing up so report won't be accurate.

No sign of Cotch and Lambert.

Shedda, Miller, Nank in rehab and running laps.

Reiwoldt and Marlion doing footwork drills in rehab group.

Have not seen Ross or Moore doing any running yet just some stationery handball stuff.

**All care and no responsibility comes with this report just trying to provide some scraps in what has been a quiet week, (will get to training in a timely fashion next week).

Lift!!

Jeez Caesar - don’t be too hard on yourself - it is bye week remember so it would be hard to tell whose ok as not all players will be around. You would be forgiven if you had a bye yourself ;D

Enjoy your work by the way.

X 4 :clap

Us out of towners need and value guys like Ceasar and the other great people who go to training and VFL matches to give us an honest assessment of our where or players are rather than read / rely on some journalists biased opinions that carry the weight of a feather. Our PRE reporters are very much appreciated by many

Oh East Melbourne!
The unknowns surrounding our injuries and when these key players will actually return is a major concern. The nature of a lot of the injuries we have makes it all up in the air a bit. No certainty we will ever get to full strength

Caesar,
Just wondering about Rioli and Vlastuin. They both looked pretty banged up against Adelaide. Thank you for your efforts.

Cotchin, Edwards, Astbury and Lambert should be back.

Short available but could be through reserves.

Riewoldt 2 weeks away.

Nank 4 weeks away.

next 2 games critical - win them and we're back on track but lose them and 2019 is pretty well done and dusted.

The AFL site now aligns with what Peter Burge said in his report so posting below so we can now track against expectations, (sure beats short, short-medium, medium, medium-long, long term):
