2023 Pre Season - SAM FLANDERS HYPE THREAD

[Scotty_222]

Thought I’d start one up!

 

[Young_Guns]

Looks like a lot of players there for 1-4th years.



Witta, Lemmens, Burgo among them.
Tbh, as long as it doesn’t mean they peak too early, I don’t know why the older boys wouldn’t come back with the kids. Get a good training load in and keep building camaraderie with the group for the big year ahead.

That’s the aim & it starts today: Anderson

Finals in 2023 is the target for the Gold Coast SUNS and they’ve started the long path to September on the front foot with an impressive showing in the 2km time trial to kick off pre-season.

, is out of contract at the end of 2023, but said he hadn't given a possible extension much thought yet.

"I've just been switching off and lying on the beach. I'll have a think about it in the next few weeks, I'm sure."

 

[Jirik13]

Lachie changing direction already. This is crazy.

If the AFL go to best 23 would love to see Big Mac & Big Ned in the afl side this season.

Good young talls coming thru, Hopefully Sandy Brock has added upper body strength

 

[RowellAnderson12]

And that’s without mentioning Big Benny King

God he’s a monster now

 

[Stroppy]

PBs all over the place in the 2km time trial.
Preseason has officially started for both players and the media.
Looking forward to every preseason article mentioning a player also throwing in the old "ran a PB in the time trial".
Brodie the last best example, got that ad nauseum his last season with us.

God he’s a monster now

Curious to know what he weighs now...

Curious to know what he weighs now...

Listed at 96kg last year, probably 98-99 now. Looks huge but have kept in great shape

202/98-99 to keep that agility and speed

Tommy lynch is 199/100
