Gwilt & Roo are there aswell, but they have been training for past 3 weeks. Would think Lenny is there aswell.

When does Lenny get married?
I read he is going on his honeymoon beforehand so he doesn't miss preseason.
On ya Lenny
Nick Winmar looks like he could of grown some more, but maybe that's just the photo.

Is Rooey there just because he is the captain?
Wouldn't have thought his knees would need any extra wear?

Nick has been in the re-hab group with Lenny and Jimmy for about 3 weeks !!
NEW scarf signature (hopefully with correct spelling) will be here as soon as it arrives !!

I see…
I thought he might be doing his re-hab up with Cairnsman as a deckhand, getting a few pointers on goal kicking, my bad.

He can play this bloke - Dowler. Just seems to get injured a lot.
I want to stand for something. I'm a loyal person and I think at the end of my career it will be great to look back and know that I'm a St Kilda person for life.

Interesting that in the article it says "He started the season as a Noble Park forward but finished it superbly in the backline."
A replacement for Zac?

There will be a few more Dowler types over the coming few years as teams look to players perhaps who have not realised their potential through injury or circumstance.
Jesse Smith was one example (that didn't eventuate unfortunately) Barloew is another, Silvagni another.
With the Giants and Suns corrupting the draft, and the talent pool inevitably thinned, more Dowlers et al will get a chance.
Lance or James??

to clarify ...from the article
"Meanwhile, two more young Zebras, Robbie Ferraro and Rob Cathcart, have joined emerging spearhead Matt Boland in moving to Collingwood's VFL team.
The Magpies have also invited Sandy top-liner Marcus Marigliani to pre-season training.
But he will instead train with the Saints, as will Zebra teammates James Magner, James Hallahan and Michael Lourey."
In fact 3 have gone to collingwood...others have been invited to Pies reserves but did not go...

Wonder if he's put on any size since those measurements were taken.
