Rookies Michael Wood, Tom Vandeluer and Jacob Ballard joined their teammates on the track for the first time in unusual weather a week out from summer.

- Meet the Rookies -

The request by coaches to apply more sunscreen and zinc at the start of training seemed redundant after light showers passed over.

Garrick Ibbotson, Michael Johnson and Clancee Pearce were doing their own training.

Second year players Jack Hannath, Max Duffy, Tanner Smith, Craig Moller and Matt Taberner have definitely put on some notable size and strength and are looking good to perform well this pre-season.

Cam Sutcliffe set the pace for the rookies as they ran laps together.

Matt Taberner and Sam Menegola are still stand out performers in the running, while Scott Gumbleton looks more and more comfortable after each session.
