So it looked weird then.

It's a different kind of weird, though. The 2018 photo it looks like he has a huge quad muscle (or maybe it's just the angle of the photo), but the knee looks fairly normal. The current preseason photo looks like a regular size quad with a weirdly protruding knee. Possibly some swelling around that patella? Or, again, maybe just an angle / perspective thing with the photo?

I am no doctor, but that looks whack.

It was the left leg that had the ruptured patella.
I am a doctor and "looks whack" is the correct medical terminology

What an absolute muppet.. leaves a high profile, high paying solid job over a couple of little needles.. nothings says “complete and utter moron” more than that.

but… probably just use the existing covid thread to post your thoughts..

Saw ol' Tredders at West Lakes around Christmas, neither him or his partner were wearing a mask in the supermarket.

He may well have a reason not to, but I'd assume given he's lost his job/s over not being vaxxed then he's just trying to make a point.

Didn't see this posted, hope Shoenberg has a massive season.
Upper body looks like he could maybe still spend more time in the gym, Rachele looks more ripped than him most of the time. Doesn't seem to stop his natural mongrel though.

I think Harry is just super streamlined and he’s not carrying any unnecessary bulk.

The club has already said Rachele is 2-3 years of improved fitness away from being a midfielder, so that’s not the physique Shoenberg needs to emulate.

Rory Sloane has never been that big ether but plenty strong enough.
Not all players focus on the beach weights, a lot of your strength / power in a contest comes from the core and legs, not the arms.

Neither Schoenberg or Rachele were ever considered to be endurance types at the time of their recruitment, clearly it's been a focus to build Schoenberg's stamina base which was very ordinary and it's unlikely to be any different with Rachele.
