  1. I don't think I'm missing the boat at all. The thing is we as a club are still trying to breakaway from the old soft ways that have haunted us from within our culture, for decades. Your the one who is only looking from the players perspective, and some worrier supporters are more worried about the players not wanting to work. And apparently it is the young players who didn't want to go. and they didn't want to speak up as well. What sort of players & future leaders are were growing, that do not feel strong enough to speak up about strongly held views, so they go outside the club to the players union to act for them in secrecy? That's a bit weak-kneed, don't you think. It seems these players are just the ones who do need this type training. See, my perspective is not for players softness, but for them to develop into strong competitors who can speak UP for themselves, without fear. This action by the players is very much like Gysberts refusing to take part in a time trial. Ah, really rusty? So, I think you have missed the boat from the clubs development perspective on these camps taking out the lack of medics Re any serious injuries.
  2. So out of all the players, one player did something silly putting on his back-pack, and so you want to demonise all camps? Do you want to stop all contact in preseason, for fear of concussions. I think one of our players was concussed at training just a few weeks back? Why haven't you said anything about that issue? Organising a medic to be at hand, is not hard to do?
  3. https://edgylabs.com/cbd-heals-bone-fractures Send hm to arizona for 6 weeks of treatment, and to come back without a hair on his body. https://www.endoca.com/blog/cbd-bone-healing/
  4. Kept on running with that plantar-fascia injury, would heap stresses on other areas of the foot & legs. No doubt he created other sore spots under that loading in that period, prior to the surgery to release the tendon, then cam back too soon, as well. I sincerely hope this is not turning out to be desaster.
  5. I think thats why he sourced out the juice, outa desperation to get that injury right. I remember feeling so sorry for him back then as he had so many setbacks with it. He was a hero to me in those days. but he turned to the dark side. Trying to self heal is creativity. But greed to get advantage by crookery, is just [censored]-weak.
  6. lets hope this makes his knock-ability better.
  7. Lets hope he'll be right for Sunday. I'd like to have him in as backup for the backline. I see him as a future Qtr-back type. vision to spot targets. I don't have faith in him in-under anymore. But I'd like to utilise his vision and ability to deliver.
  8. I agree. But there no point US propping up the power clubs numbers watching their prime time home games as supporters; when it is so bloody hard to get our ratings up. By doing that, we just add to their ratings numbers. at our own detriment. And look at edi-everywhere. he tries to portray QB/day game as the pies own home game. 'full of it' that one. Such is the arrogance of maintaining their hold over the rest of the stragglers within the competition.
  9. This is why we all have to stop supporting the Big4 on Free2Air TV. Do not watch them in Prime Time. The longer we keep propping Up they're numbers in ratings, we make it harder on ourselves to get ratings that AID our own growth back up to where we Once belonged. Once Upon a Time !
  10. 2nd silhouette on the right = Daisy Pearce.
  11. I don't mind that, if we go small up front. If Petracca was in a Giles mold, then we could fit ANB on the f/flank. Hogan rotating, R/R & CHF with Petracca.
  12. I was thinking on the wing, for Hunt, to cut off either Danger or Lil Gaz, when they're on-ball. With Lever down back, he, Lew and Salem can aid to cut off those 2 Cats, when forward.
  13. We need that quality runner, who is not totally outside.
  14. I'd go Sloane, with a $3.2mill over 4yrs contract offer. ($850thou Yr1, $650thou Yrs2&3, $1m Yr4) = $3.2m over 4yrs, mostly back-ended. If we can squeeze it in. We need a mature player of his type.
  15. Righto boss, I'll send a memo to Melbourne Storm and the Craig Bellamy, letting them know of your 1st hand impressions, & that they could well save their money for a cinema outing instead, for player welfare. I'm sure they'll be grateful for the heads up. These camps are not cheap you know. By the way. How is your favorite small from the 2012 National Draft going?
  16. 22* and some precipitation. good. humidity & sweating players will make it slippery. Let the wet be our friend. Lets go small & speedy, with plenty aggro.
  17. What is deadly to our brand is NOT being prime time Free to Air. If we are to pickup undecided watchers of our game as supporters, we have to get the Prime-Time spots on the Free Telly. # Forget that bloody Fox, and pay TV, that doesn't help us grow the club, actually the more of us that switch to Fox, the LESS Likely it will be that we get and keep Prime time. And we won't really grow our supporter base as most who Pay for TV, are already welded on Members.
  18. I have to record both, simultaneously. So I can re-watch both later.
  19. And the other a tanker & salary cap rorter.
  20. I agreed, but really its been a team effort, on/offfield. Without one part, the others suffer. together, they are like brothers in arms.
  21. Thats good__ in a funny sorta way. catch my drift. I'm looking forward to Gus getting his mojo back.
  22. here is a good example to show the inequity. http://www.afl.com.au/tv-radio/broadcastguide https://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/tg-carlton-blues?year=2018 Is it true that most Melbournefc supporters have FOXtel, when most other clubs supporters go to Free to Air. If so, is it any wonder we don't get a go on Free2Air.
