Essendon’s Mason Redman and Sam Durham locked in for Sunday night’s Carlton clash.
Jordan Ridley 50/50 at this stage.
Past players Paul Barnard, Mark Johnson and Adam Ramanauskas keen onlookers at Tullamarine. Love to see it.

Confirmed season over for Sam Flanders. He'll have Achilles surgery next week.
Set for 12-month recovery. Cruel blow for the 24-year old - handled with complete class.

Mason Redman and Jye Caldwell didn’t get through main training at Essendon.
Redman managed a few running drills, then spent some time chatting with Bombers fans.
Caldwell warmed up but never looked too comfortable.

Relief for Collingwood - Darcy Moore cleared of any hamstring damage after tightness during this morning's session.
His calf the main reason he's missing Saturday night's Crows clash - eyes to a return after the bye.

Early pre-season blow for North Melbourne - George Wardlaw leaving match sim early with a hamstring issue.
The hope is that it’s at the minor end (as much as can be given his history). Set for scans - in doubt for round one.

Pies medicos working overtime.
Beau McCreery out for another 4-6 weeks with a recurring foot problem.
Darcy Moore still at least another 3 weeks off with a calf.
Hopes Dan McStay, Isaac Quaynor and Jeremy Howe will play pre-season v GWS.

Christian Petracca asked the Crows for an extra year on top of his current 4-year contract, at increased money across the entire deal, which forced the club to reconsider its trade position.
He would have been 35 on expiry and one of Adelaide's highest paid players.

Adelaide forward Josh Rachele will absolutely not be part of any deal involving Demons superstar Christian Petracca and a potential move to the Crows.
The 22-year old is contracted until 2029 and is considered untouchable.

Early end to Brodie Mihocek’s evening at Pies training. Looked very uncomfortable at times.

Scare for young gun Jordan Croft. After Bevo gave him a huge pump up in his presser and confirmed he’s in the 22 - he was taken into the rooms after an awkward landing with concern over his right shoulder - but has since returned.

Funny scenes at Whitten Oval - Fremantle staff members booted out of Bulldogs training by assistant coach Daniel Pratt.
One was former Tigers and Swans ruckman Sam Naismith - so, the least recognisable guy they could send… was Sandilands busy? 😂

Roos watch: Expecting North Melbourne midfielder Geordie Payne to make his AFL debut v GWS this weekend.
Payne was the first pick of the 2024 mid-season draft.
Nick Larkey ruled out for the year.

After a super promising month, Ashton Moir is closing in on a new 2-year deal at Carlton 🔒

"(I) always kind of thought it was normal, to be honest."

AFL MRO matrix starts this at a 2-week suspension, but it's impossible to imagine that's a severe enough penalty for an off the ball punch to an opponent's head.
Has to go to straight to the tribunal.

"It's almost a bar room brawl type of swing... the potential to cause injury is extreme"

Laura Kane says umpires were not at fault during the Lachie Schultz concussion.
"Our process in determining what happened Thursday night failed.
Today we have determined there was a miscommunication from members of the umpiring department, not the field umpires."
