Last training this Friday?

Wednesday I believe.

 

[E Shed]

Gees. I used to think I was pretty average height at 178. Now I’m barely tall enough for football.
Mind you I feel like I’m in land of the giants around most young men now.
It’s actually an evolutionary trait that humans get bigger during times of abundance and smaller during scarcity.
Fun fact right. I’m here all week, try the veal.

It's just all the protein we now have access to. Eat a lot of protein at a young age and you get taller than if you didn't. Works for animals too and the giant chickens they grow.

We have really shot up in the past 50-100 years.

Thanks. it’s possible that’s because it’s 25 years since I had my last drink.

I don’t think it’s only that.
It’s an evolutionary advantage to be bigger and stronger but if the food supply is scarce then not.

 

[largebus]

I mean go to any old house or castle in Europe and if you're above 170 you'll have to duck under the doorway.

I know west coast shot up, just not on the ladder

Folks lived in an old house in Freo for a while, tiny doorways.

Good thing my brother’s only 6’6” (it made me laugh so hard to watch everyone else get through the house… finally an advantage to being the runt of the family!)

 

[wakojako]

finally an advantage to being the runt of the family!

I am also the runt of the family if you replace the r with a c.

 

[Paracleet]

Anyone make it down today for the match sim?

 

[yakamoto]

Yeah! As usual Freddy avoiding contact. Didn’t lay a single tackle. Just jogged up and down on the fringes of the action.
Someone said he was doing rehab on Monday too.

 

[Mesc]

Anyone make it down today for the match sim?

I was there yep, my legs are killing me, I didnt stretch my hammy's properly.

 

[Superkoops]

Should we have a injury report for training watchers

 

[freo_leo29]

Did ya kick any snags

 

[yakamoto]

Liked what I saw of Sweyd. Very strong in some of the ground ball drills, ball handling good.
Played high half in match sims. Wasn’t involved a lot but in possession was evasive and unflustered while looking for a good option.

 

[Mesc]

Did ya kick any snags

The best I could do was kick myself in the arse. An achievement for me, Ive needed it all my life.

 

[Grandaddy Purple]

Well you did better than me, I couldn't get a kick off cocaine.

 

[pK75]

No belated training reports from yesterday, us eastern states supports are dying for the lack of updates

 

[yakamoto]

For you PK75
Cox and Darcy were opposed in the early ruck contests. I thought Cox did well. Perhaps Darcy is going to struggle against the taller rucks who can jump.
Draper was opposed to Amiss. Amiss had some good moments marking on the lead up the middle.Draper’s kicking was immaculate and I thought was the best defensive rebounder.
Kickett appears to have a powerful kick.Had set shot from 50 and covered the distance easily. Looked confident about that when lining up. Scored a point.
Freddy, Switta and Ryan ran laps, and laps, and laps.
