Has he pissed off yet?

Another week I think. Was waiting for his Visa

 

[Moo87]

I'd like to know which muscle they're going to biopsy just prior to a football match.

My guess would be quads (most common) or deltoid. Muscle biopsies for this would just with a normal size needle so no real recovery time and minimal pain associated with it ( post procedure that is). Given the limited information they require only a small sample would be needed.

Interesting to know exactly how they'll interpret the results though...

Geez Wilbur, that's one ugly knee.

 

[HinkleysHeroes]

Geez Wilbur, that's one ugly knee.

That bulge is due to his grafted on bionic lower leg. He got a package deal with his bionic shoulders.

Looking at the whole picture makes me think what Matty Primus had, probably only had 2 guys on his fitness team.

 

[Doctor Feel]

The bulge is his quad, nothing to do with his knee. He's a cyclist so his quads are huge.

Worked with Jaye at West Adelaide when he was head trainer for U16 & 18 teams in 2013. I was trainer under him for a few months until I got a job somewhere else, nice guy and I knew he'd end up somewhere big cos he knew his stuff and he was only 22 then and had worked at Manly when he was 15/16 as he was from NSW. But s**t he's pale here, the man needs some red meat!

Carl Woods our new skills acquisition manager, in June this year explained his paper to Robert Pacey ( at The Strength of Science website) about his joint paper he wrote with Ian Mckeown and 3 others re The Association Between Fundamental Athletic Movements and Physical Fitness in Elite Junior Australian Footballers

If you want to check out the text itself, you can click on the links below. You can access the abstract of the paper below, or on PubMed HERE. Carl can be found on Researchgate and on Twitter @carlwoods25

Abstract – This study investigated the associations between fundamental athletic movement and physical fitness in junior Australian football (AF). Forty-four under 18 players performed a fundamental athletic movement assessment consisting of an overhead squat, double lunge, single leg Romanian deadlift and a push up. Movements were scored on three assessment criterions using a three-point scale. Additionally, participants performed five physical fitness tests commonly used for talent identification in AF. A Spearman’s nonparametric correlation matrix was built, with correlation coefficients being visualised using a circularly rendered correlogram. Score on the overhead squat was moderately positively associated with dynamic vertical jump height on left (rs = 0.40; P ≤ 0.05) and right (rs = 0.30; P ≤ 0.05) leg take-off, stationary vertical jump (rs = 0.32; P ≤ 0.05) and negatively associated with 20-m sprint time (rs = −0.35; P ≤ 0.05). Score on the double lunge (left/right side) was moderately positively associated with the same physical fitness tests as well as score on the multistage fitness test. Results suggest that improvements in physical fitness qualities may occur through concurrent increases in fundamental athletic movement skill, namely the overhead squat and double lunge movements. These findings may assist with the identification and development of talent.

Back on page 9 of this thread in October 2014 The club became the first AFL club to accredit the whole of the senior guys in the high performance team - "The Port Adelaide Football Club — in conjunction with the Australian Football League (AFL) has today announced its sports performance team is the first in the current AFL competition to be accredited under industry body Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA)."

Last week the Australian Sports Commission and AIS announced national accreditation schemes for sport scientists and strength and conditioning coaches. What it means is if you want funding from the ASC for elite sports, that national sporting organisations will need all sport science and strength and conditioning staff to have the relevant accreditation with ESSA and ASCA by the end of 2018. From the ASC press release. We were way ahead of the pack. Not sure what the AFL stance requirement has been for all clubs but if government monies will be potentinally lost they will move on it.

Australian sport commits to national standard for sport science
19 December 2017

The Australian Sports Commission (ASC) has announced national accreditation schemes for sport scientists and strength and conditioning coaches, ensuring rigorous governance measures to protect athletes and the integrity of Australian sport. The ASC and its high performance arm, the AIS, will work in partnership with Exercise & Sports Science Australia (ESSA) and the Australian Strength and Conditioning Association (ASCA) to apply the high standards of accreditation to Australian sporting organisations over the next 12 months.

Following robust consultation with the National Institute Network and national sporting bodies, the ASC endorses ESSA and ASCA as the peak accreditation bodies for Australian sport science and strength and conditioning respectively. As a condition of the ASC’s Sport Investment Agreements, national sporting organisations will require all sport science and strength and conditioning staff to have the relevant accreditation with ESSA and ASCA by the end of 2018.

AIS Director Peter Conde said: “The ASC and AIS work in partnership with sporting organisations to protect the health and wellbeing of Australian athletes. “By applying these high industry standards in sport science and strength and conditioning, then the entire Australian sport industry is making it crystal clear that we collectively stand for integrity in sport. Athlete health and wellbeing is a priority, and we will do everything within our power to ensure Australian athletes receive professional and ethical advice.”

The ASC recommends ESSA as the accrediting body for sport scientists, including but not limited to physiologists, biomechanists, performance analysts, skill acquisition specialists and strength scientists.

The ASC recommends ASCA as the accrediting body for strength and conditioning coaches.

High Performance managers and Sport Science Sport Medicine (SSSM) managers will also require accreditation with the relevant body where their job requires elements of applied practice.

CEO of ESSA Anita Hobson-Powell said: “ESSA welcome the decision from the ASC regarding the requirements for accreditation of sports scientists. We look forward to working with our accredited professionals in maintaining the standards and integrity of sports scientists working with Australian athletes.”

CEO of ASCA Susan Currell said: “The ASCA commends the AIS on its proactive stance to quality assuring the sport support staff environment. Athletes deserve to be working with practitioners with high integrity who have met the rigors of a competency and skills-based accreditation process to ensure an ethical approach to their greater performance success.”

Conde said the AIS would monitor the compliance of sports annually. The accreditation scheme will be reviewed after two years to reassess progress in Australian sport science standards. “In addition to this accreditation, the ASC and AIS will continue to work with sports. Sporting organisations are guided by the AIS Sport Science Sport Medicine Best Practice Principles, which are part of the ASC’s Mandatory Governance Principles.”

The release of the 1994 and 1995 Cabinet papers yesterday further points to the success of winning the hosting rights for the 2000 Olympics had on professionalizing the sports industry in Australia and the impact on the sports science industry in Australia. Cabinet received a submission from then Sports Minister and Labor heavyweight Senator John Faulkner which included a biography and breakdown of Kieren Perkins career progress since he was 12 years old as there was a search to find more champions like him. The document said it took 6 years from being identified as a talented junior to winning a gold medal. So Cabinet supported extra funding of $137m for the next 6 years over and above the existing elite sports funding.

It included acquiring world leading sports coaches, extra travel payments for Oz teams to compete overseas, talent identification searches performed by sports scientist and national sporting organisations, more scholarships and extra funding in sports science. The AIS and State Institutes/Academies of sports also formalised plans to work together across the areas i mentioned above and take a more integrated approach rather than go off on their own journey as had happened the previous 10 years or so.

Its why Oz should bid for 2032, 36, 40 or 44 Olympics depending when its Asia's turn again after Tokyo 2020, Paris 2024 and LA 2028. It will focus the governments funding on the next level of sports success for Olympic and non Olympic sports. Whether we win hosting rights given AOC president John Coates who these days is the number 2 at the IOC says Brisbane/SE Queensland ( given IOC have said they will spread Olympics around a region and nation not just a city) will have to bid as the IOC basically will only vote for a late August early September Olympics, and that the cost doesn't blow out ridiculously is another thing.

Sports minister John Faulkner told cabinet Australia would be judged “far more … on its sporting success” than its competent running of the Games. “Their ‘place’ in Australian history will depend on the sporting heroes produced,” he said.Mr Faulkner used a year-by-year breakdown of Perkins’ career from age 12 to successfully argue for a funding boost for athletes.

THE rise of Kieren Perkins as an Olympic hero shaped a golden plan that would drive Ian Thorpe and his Aussie teammates to success at Sydney 2000. A detailed timeline of Perkins’ career from when he started swimming to his success in Barcelona was presented to the Keating government to support talent identification and immediate investment to ensure the 2000 Sydney Olympics would be a success.

Cabinet papers for 1994 and 1995, released today by the National Archives of Australia, show then sports minister John Faulkner stressed that Australia “will be judged on its sporting success” in Sydney. The feats of Perkins, the world’s dominant 1500m swimmer, was the backbone of the “Gold Medal Plan” that would in turn generate public support and ticket sales. “It took six years between when Kieren was identified as having talent and winning an Olympic gold medal,” the submission said, urging Cabinet to take a long-term path.

Senator Faulkner said Sydney 2000 would provide Australia’s greatest international exposure. “While it is important that the event is managed competently, Australia will be judged far more (both domestically and internationally) on its sporting success at the Games,” he wrote in his submission. Their place in Australian history would depend on the sporting heroes produced.“Where this has not occurred in the past, for example in Montreal in 1976, the Games have passed into domestic history as a disaster,” he wrote. He warned the $16 million annual funding was not enough to guarantee success and Australia’s national standing at the Games would be jeopardised. He said the preparation of athletes needed to start immediately — and not after the 1996 Atlanta Games, by identifying talent — using experienced full-time coaches and exposing athletes to international competition.

Some figures which confirm my memory that $137m was the announced amount that the feds would spend extra on Sydney Olympics for elite sports spending. The AOC goal, put to the government for extra funding, was nearly achieved, 58 medals and 16 golds.

The Australian Olympic Committee hoped to win 60 medals, with 20 gold, for which it needed $418 million.The funding model cited the 1992 Barcelona Games where Spain won 13 gold medals and Seoul 1988 in which South Korea won 12 — all hauls higher than in previous Games, which involved big financial investments.Cabinet offered $20 million a year for three years, rising to $25 million a year for the following three years.

The Burgo academy might see 1 or 2 new additions over the next few months given the AIS is restructuring and our long term plan is to build a high performance centre of excellent. Now might be the time to chase some of the talent being let go by the AIS.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-05-...or-more-olympic-success/9737256?section=sport

The Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) is beginning what is being described as a "painful but long overdue" process to re-invent itself after years of criticism about athlete performances on the international stage. The ABC understands more than 40 jobs will be affected as the AIS introduces new performance criteria to measure success, including a desire for Australia to "consistently win medals at major international events". Last week executives began the process of informing all AIS staff of the proposed changes, impacting a range of positions across the organisation. It is understood the changes will affect areas like biomechanics and physiology among others.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-05-...or-more-olympic-success/9737256?section=sport

The AIS is basically saying individual sports have to sign up these specialists and use them and the AIS is partnering up with Unis and becoming an athlete welfare and development than a centralised centre of excellence.

Concerns have been raised by some staff that the changes will see "years of experience" lost to the organisation, with some transferring to individual sporting bodies. The ABC has obtained the email from AIS director Peter Conde sent to all staff last Friday, making the case for change. "This process is absolutely necessary for the AIS to play its leadership role within an effective high performance sport system, and to regain its position as a world leader," he said. The AIS's new strategy aims to see the institution become less "science and services dominant" and "Canberra-centric", transitioning to an increased focus on athlete welfare and development, and partnering more with universities.

Poor Olympic results and the fact the AIS has become a bit of a ghost town type institute are the drivers of this change. And the guy who has lead sailing over the last decade to great success has been given the job to restructure things.

In 2016 the AIS was labelled by former Australian Olympic Committee media director Mike Tancred as "deserted" and a "ghost town". Australia's lacklustre performance at the Rio 2016 Olympics sparked questions over the funding and development of elite athletes. Last year, Mr Conde was appointed AIS director, having overseen remarkable Olympic and Paralympic success while in charge of Sailing Australia. In an interview with the ABC shortly after taking up the role, Mr Conde flagged change was on the way for the organisation. "I've got no doubt that the AIS needs to evolve — and that's part of the reason why I've taken on this great challenge," he said in August last year. Mr Conde also suggested building stronger relationships with existing individual sporting bodies and academies could be a way forward for the organisation.

I would be hoping for a couple of powerlifting/weightlifting coaches rather than endurance track and field coaches.

I hope there is another David Rath at the AIS that will need a job and we nab him.

When Clarko was an assistant at Port we sent him to a seminar/conference and Rath was one of the main speakers. Clarko was so blown away by him, that he kept in touch and he was the first assistant he employed at the Hawks even before he nabbed Andrew Russell. Rath is a skills acquisition coach and sports strategist. He was responsible for Hawthorns kicking development. Clarko lost him in January this year to the AFL who created a new position - head of coaching, which includes developing coaching strategies for grassroots football up to the elite level.

Burgo back in Oz and has visited Alberton. Dwayne Russell loves him, so had him on his show last night.

Burgo reckons that EPL's use of analytics is 5 years so in advance, reckons Arsenal own stats company have 12 full time statisticians who only work on oppo player recritment and list management
Player development and individual analysis in AFL is really strong compared to EPL because Euro soccer is so advanced that if individual isn't developed by time you get to a club you can get cut quickly.

Healy asked if rotations reduced from 90 to 40, 10 a quarter, reckons high half forwards and wingers wouldnt be able to get up and down the ground. wont have physical ability to do it and it will stop some of congestion, even though he personally wants to protect the players.

Talks about academies and how having kids from 13 years of age makes a difference rather than clubs getting them at 18 and having to adjust their development. Interesting discussion about if players coming out of u/18 programs are good enough and suggestions that get rid of Geelong Falcons, Western Jets etc and get blokes at Geelong, Richmond, Port etc, plain and be coached by those clubs but can be drafted by anyone to accelerate player development before they turn 18 and draft age.

Carl Woods - our Skills Acquisition Specialist - hasn't improved our goal kicking but has written this paper with Ian McKeown and one other person. Not sure what it all means to improving our players.

It says that there is less time and space when playing AFL to SANFL, with most disposals in AFL having to be made at top speed, so don’t compare performances between the two, and that coaches need to consider this factor during training.
