Who was at training?

[sharp9]

Have any of our delisted players started training with the group this week? Josh? Heath?

Are any of our delisted players training with other clubs? Scooter?

Are any local youngsters training with our boys? Clarke? Shaw? Hayes?

And are any other potential draftees training with our boys? That kid from Warnambool way?

Gossip, please!

I haven't been to training, but it is my understanding that Josh Thewlis, Luke Vogels (that Warrnambool kid), and James Podi...., er Posi....., Podsiadly (ex Collingwood and Werribee) are currently training with our squad

According to Roosey Responds (12/11) both James and Thewlis have been invited to do pre-season training with the Swans.

Thewlis is certain to be back at the club it seems, whether its the rookie list or the senior list will be decided Saturday. Vogels seems like an outside chance for the rookie list and Podsiadly could be a bolter and end up being draft Saturday (can't be put on the rookie list however), rave reports coming out of Victoria about Podsiadly. So don't be surprised with Podsiadly when we draft him Saturday, you have been warned.

great, thanks for that. Seems Saddo will be pressing for that full forward spot.

Mmmm....someone has to miss out. Can't see Ball, Doyle, Jolly and Saddo all playing the same 22.

And Fixter will have his eyes on Bevan's position I should think!

Also good to see Roos is planing on using LRT down back next season. Might just of found our CHB for the future.

Met a fellow called Bartlett or Barret - has played for the Swans, been in the rams has nominated for the draft and hoping to be picked up. Plays for the Pennant Hills Demons.

Not sure how he plays as I only spoke to him - average build

Expected to be drafted or at the very least be on our rookie list. The kid is thought by same to be the best from NSW this season talent wise.

What else can you tell us about him Robbie?

Heard on SEN1116AM this morning : Dave Misson says that Sean Dempster and Paul Bevan are looking very good early in the pre-season.

I would love to see Dempster do well - I can just remember seeing his old man play!

I would love to see Dempster do well, but for entirely different reasons

And here i was thinking you were male...sorry eirinn my bad!!!

[TheMase]

Thewlis AND James have been called for training?

Perhaps we'll see James re-drafted through the national draft, and Thewlis through the rookie list.

Surely we won't re-draft James though? But he wouldn't be asked back if not under consideration.

Thoughts?

[swansrule100]

on the afl website roos said they are both a chance to be redrafted

We obviously have a number of mature key position players training with us as according to www.footygoss.com Aiden Parker from the Adelaide Crows is also training with us.

So far then it has been reported that the following are training with us

Parker
Vogels
Posiadly (can't be bothered checking spelling)
James

Seems almost certain that we will take one of these with our final pick
