Article today on Jade Gresham - just noticed he is priced at 299K & has fwd/mid classification :-
Eight months after rupturing his Achilles tendon in round three last season, Jade Gresham is close to resuming full training as the Saints ask “why not us?” ahead of 2022.
After a disappointing 2021, when they missed finals, the club is turning to a core group of players aged in their mid-20s to lead the charge towards finals and eventually a drought-breaking flag under Brett Ratten.
At 24 and with 95 games behind him, Gresham is a key part of the core group that must fire for the Saints to be realistic contenders, and he knows it.
“I’m 24 now and a lot of our core group are 24-27, so we have to lead this club now and lead the group and lead by example,” Gresham said.
“We know that, and we are looking forward to hopefully having a big year next year.”
The Saints began 2021 on the wrong foot, losing several games by embarrassing margins, with Gresham’s absence not helping their cause. He has missed most of Ratten’s reign; he has played just 14 games in the past two seasons due to a stress fracture in his back, then the ruptured Achilles.
But he says the experience in rehab will make him a better athlete as he has learned the diligence required to ensure both body and mind are primed for performance.
Much of his work has been focused on strengthening his calf muscles, but he also became much more aware of how his diet affected him, how he needed to attack the weights with both purpose and clarity and, also, most importantly, how his actions rubbed off on those around him.
He’s worked hard to get the body right and occasionally tapped into the wisdom of Hawthorn champion Jarryd Roughead, who also overcame an Achilles injury in his career. Now Gresham is itching to play as he moves close to joining full training.
“It’s been a long road to recovery, sitting around all of last year trying to get it right,” Gresham said.
“It’s only been the past three months I have really ramped things up. I have had to be very diligent in my preparation and my body. It’s all coming along pretty good and fingers crossed, there are no more issues.”

Doubt Milera plays round 1, just reading what Nicks has said about him in regards to being conservative with his rehab etc, not confident at all that he will be ready early on.
Just playing around with switching Coleman to defence & getting Brodie/Gresham in. Looks a lot of value in the fwd line this year, some real bargains :-
