I'm going in the draft - the amount of time off these guys get in unbelievable.

it will be interesting to see how many of our large rehab group will be ready for round 1. Would like to see our team before getting too cocky.

I don’t think Port are that bad. They will be thereabouts for the 8. We will need to bring our A game.

From a distance it seems Goodwin has the ability to get the balance right between being tough and demanding, yet supportive and encouraging. It is a fine line and he walks it very well. I love his no Richard Cranium policy so whilst he has inherited a good list he has shaped it very well. Five years for me.

Not really. Too old. You would think after what emerged about his recent behaviour that he would not put himself in the position to have an image like this come out. He’s a moron.

Richard Cranium. Still behaves like a school kid that hasn’t grown up.

Obviously needs to conserve his energy for other pursuits

I hope the pool is well chlorinated

much like politicians

Absolutely- they are paid big bucks to be elite athletes and part of that is to avoid any high risk activity that may result in injuries. I personally think that includes alcohol as puritanical as it sounds

I must admit being a fan of Ollie and still am a bit peaved we didn’t get him. Just pleased he isn’t playing against us.

there is probably a thread about this but i cant find it - a little surprised Goodwin hasnt had his contract extended by now.

BooHoo - I'll take any advantage we can get.

Hooker.

I love our list - its depth, its versatility and its grunt. That’s why it’s so hard to pick the best 22.

If Preuss came in I think Vanders may miss out. Hannan is more versatile and a bit more polished with his ball use.

Jetta. May. Hibberd Salem OMac Hore KK Brayshaw Jones Gawn Oliver Viney Trac Weed Melksham Fritter TMac Garlett Harmes Hannan Nibbler Vanders emergencies Preuss Lewis Spargo Frost. Lever is unlikely to be available. Garlett seems to have extracted the digit. There are big wraps on Hore, especially his kicking. Lewis has lost me.

Indeed. Played for the big V with distinction on several occasions.

only needs to tidy up his disposal and goal kicking, which are below par.

i wouldn't mind that rig.

Can’t understand the feeling that Trac is over weight on the basis of these photos. I’m very hopeful he will have a big year. The criticism is a bit harsh I think. Last year wasn’t all that bad either - he had a lot of important score involvements if you look back on the highlight reel.

A weekend on the puss. I admire your stamina.

Sounds like , from what Bernie said, Demonlands concern was correct re Mays fitness and skin folds. Sounds like he has buckled down and dropped a couple of dress sizes which is pleasing.

Lucky for them they’ve got $cully - on a Zimmer frame.

You must wear size XXXL
