Club by club pre-season update

[gossiboy]

For those amongst you who either don't have twitter or don't follow Supercoach Specialist (SC_Specialist) they're currently going through each club and giving brief (as everything has to be on twitter) updates on their pre-season training so I thought I'd post it here to give you all an indication of which players in your team are tearing the house down in the pre season.



ADELAIDE: Guns Sloane & Dangerfield are going well but all the rave is with young mid Brad Crouch who is likely to make the round one side.

BRISBANE: Big improver is Claye Beams. Rich is a top performer as usual and Maloney is slotting in nicely.

CARLTON: Gibbs is firing. Draftee Troy Mezel won’t be rushed into the side given past injuries. Simon White also making some serious noise.

COLL’WOOD: Dane Swan is training very well. HarryO also is setting a high standard. Young ruck Jarrod Witts is also developing terrifically.

ESSENDON: Goddard has impressed from the get-go. Heppell has also been training well with the midfield group.

FREO: Hayden Crozier standing out above all else, really pushing for selection in this, his second season - watch for him in the NAB cup.

GEELONG: Ex-Sun Josh Caddy has been really impressing around the club. Jimmy Bartel has had a limited schedule after nursing a foot injury.

GC SUNS: Rookies Lonergan & Sumner will have an impact in 2013. L Osborne travelling okay, but Horsley is the main standout of the summer.

GWS: Toby Greene's tearing up the training track this preseason & is set to improve on an already dominant Debut season. Patton going great.

HAWTHORN: Bradley Hill and Mitch Hallahan are “eye-catching performers” and Luke Hodge and Jordan Lewis are tracking well after injuries.

MELBOURNE: Jack Viney is training well with the group. Mature agers Terlich and M Jones are impressing. Aaron Davey is also going well.

NORTH MELB: Atley & Harper are getting bigger and better. Mature aged ruck Dan Currie is looking good. McKenzie also improving.

PORT ADE: Ollie Wines is making a great first impression. Matty Broadbent is also training really hard. Rob Gray wont be back for a while.

RICHMOND: B Ellis is rapidly improving. Dustin Martin's having his best preseason so far. Chaplin & Maric are recovering well from injuries.

SAINTS: Clint Jones & Ben McEvoy are big standouts this preseason. Wright, Murdoch & Saunders are expected to appear during the 2013 season.

SYDNEY: Alex Johnson, the young defender is tearing up the track. Tommy Walsh going okay and Goodes is slowing getting back to fitness.

WCE: Wellingham is making an immediate impact, training well. NicNat is still under an injury cloud. But others are going well.

BULLDOGS: Nath Hrovat is hitting the track with great enthusiasm. Shaun Higgins is having a consistent run, is 2013 his big year?

Great stuff, thanks Gossi ;)

Wellingham could be a good smokey, but I won't take the risk with 6 forward spots.
