Weight loss!!!

Post: # 1993102Post B.M »

Seeing training a few times and looking at some pics, a lot have players have stripped considerable weight!!!

Steele, Higgins, Windhager, Wood, Crouch, Hill, Bytel, Byrnes, Butler, Marshall, Membrey, Paton, Sharman

All noticeably leaner

We were an endurance strong team last season, this season we should continue to be able to run games out - but be running on top of the ground for longer.

Of course it’s swings and roundabouts

We may lose some ground on the contested ball

But Ross has stated
We will be a high pressure, aggressive turn over team. We will go quickly from contested situations and turnover
We will also be an outnumber team that runs from stoppage

This GP requires extreme fitness

Gonna be interesting

Was one of the knocks on him at Freo, meaning his game plan was too taxing and physically demanding which impacted player availability.

I’m loving RTBs approach
Would rather have players available for games that have passed physically commanding regimes
And continue to do so

Those that can’t appreciate that need to follow another club……..please

If you listen to Lenny and Banger. the boss is leaving the heavy lifting and the responsibility for developing a game plan to his assistants.

Great, as far as I can see so far.

Yes some would be dar happier over at Essendope.


Rugby League would have to be the stupidest, most moronic and over rated game of all time.
