I'm shocked he hasn't yet been signed for 2020. he's having a cracking year.
He mentioned in interview earlier in the year that he was unsure if this year or next would be his last. Maybe his choice to hold off and see how the year plays out.

Last year for Houli you reckon Caesar?
Maybe the decision to play might be based on whether we win the flag this year. A perfect time to call it a day given his record of soft tissue issues if we win

I reckon Houli is just managing his body. Long season for a player whose had some issues with his groin the past couple of years as well as a serious back ailment back in the day. At his age he'd know his body well

Thanks Caesar. Nice to see Markov and Naish on the radar after good performances in the vfl. Share your concerns about Stack and haven't given up on Balta. After his performances last year I went out and backed him to win the RS at 80. Seemed like a good idea at the time.

How’s picket looked at training Caesar , his skills on show ?

Pretty excited to see him play, very smooth mover and skills look exquisite for someone who has played so little footy in the last 12 months. Still expect him to need a couple of matches to get in the swing of things.

Wednesday training, (not main session):

Notable absence and it is a big one, no Tom Lynch.
Other than that all present and accounted for.
Stack Cotch & Rance doing a power of work in rehab. If it was a final Stack & Catch would play IMO but along with Cotch you'd think caution would be the go with Stack as well this week?

Next report Friday main training where hopefully Tom will be training the house down.

Muchas gracias caesar.

is it unusual for Big Tom to miss a session this year?

perfect week for a freshen up and rotate Mabs and Nank out of FF?

Lynch has done a power of work this year. A missed training session wouldnt be out of the ordinary.

Lynch didn't play from half way through the 3rd quarter

And now missed a training session

Where there is smoke there is fire?

Agree, I am sure it is management, the last mark and goal he got Saturday night he got crunched from behind and looked a bit sore getting up even though he went back and slotted it. Might have even got a bit of a corky, he did spend a fair portion of the last quarter on the bench.
