Will White was given a tap on the shoulder by the club and informed he was unsuccessful in his pursuit of an SSP spot, whilst recently signed VFL player Wade Derksen has been granted an opportunity to audition for a senior spot. Does this move indicate the club being reminded of our lack of key position player depth, especially in light of recent injuries to Haynes, Cowan and Carroll? I explain why I think it is, and why the move to potentially sign Derksen over White makes sense.

Two words. Jagga Smith. Again! But we also had a host of other standouts, positional shifts and key takeaways - I recap what was a grueling session!

I was lucky enough to head down to open training once again today and not only capture some vision of the lads in their hit out, I was able to feast my eyes on some brilliant bits of play, and an absolute bolter who I was not expecting to kick 3 in the match sim - Matt Carroll! I chat stand outs, leadership, cultural shifts and more!

Sam Edmund provided a timely update on Elijah Hollands' pursuit of an SSP spot, along with a pleasing report surrounding Walsh re-signing! 🙏🏼📝

We headed down to Open Training to grab our first glimpse of the lads on the track for the first time in 2026, and there were a few that caught the eye... including the son of a gun! 😉

Jesse Motlop has ruptured his ACL during our first training session for season 2026, and will miss the remainder of the year. It’s a huge blow for the small forward, who just signed a two-year contract extension, and for one of those two years being wiped out due to injury is salt in the wound. Who steps up in his place?
