  1. May I pose a serious question for anyone who reallly understands (as opposed to just thinks they have an opinion they would like to share) sports development etc:

    How much can another preseason under Missen be expected to improve our overall leg speed as opposed to endurance?

    Can top grade conditioning turn a plodder into a racehorse, to any extent?

    Conditioning will probably help the amount of time players can run full bull, but wouldn't have any effect on actual speed and acceleration. Things that can improve this upon natural characteristics are technique, muscle and flexibility.

  2. I think there is no doubt the club would be thinking of ways to get him with 2nd round pick, just as a measure, it would be in their best interests to explore all opportunities even if they don't come to fruition. I would be disappointed if they weren't. However, there has been so much media hype etc. that the hands are tied and there isn't too much they can do about it.

    Whatever the case, I'm looking forward to see JV play, hopefully he does well in Casey.

  3. Incorrect, the Vets List rule changes and now only $100k of vets salary will go off the Cap (as opposed to the 50% it used to be)

    Freo may be able to afford Cloke now, but when their young guns develop, where's their money going to come from

    My mistake, I guess that works out even better for Freo..

  4. I think the reason they can squeeze in Cloke is the fact that Pav is Veteran listed, only half of his salary will count to the cap. Also, Sandi is going to be available for veteran's list next year which frees up more space.

    Although, I know we have a fair bit of space (using 92.5% or something like that?), and don't disagree that we should go after a classy midfielder with some experience.
