I just asked you that exact question on your story. The 2 talking to a trainer?
Yeah those two.
The one with the shaved head, Maher I presume, really bothered me, I couldn't work it out.
He looked like Reef but wasn't reef. It was like Reef had a twin lol

Yep, I kept going back to look again, thinking it was Reef.

VFL options?
 
The funniest pre-season content retrospectively was the Bombers fans bragging how big their players were getting under the Weapon in 2012.
When they had all their soft tissue injuries, I said to my bro-in-law that it looked like the Bomber's players were getting huge but really quickly, causing all the soft tissue injuries. The muscles didn't seem to be growing naturally, but I didn't see it playing out the way it did.
On another note, I knew Heath Hocking at the time, it really ruined him mentally, he wasn't alone and it was quite sad to hear and see how it affected the players, they weren't in the know and he said they trusted the docs and team management. He was in a very dark place.

We need to have a pre season intra club match asap 😀.
Keep the punters happy.
Stream it.
Even put it on 7, Cricket Australia have plenty of days to fill these days anyway.
We’re lucky if there is a club stream 😂

Illegal actions normally have consequences. They should consider themselves to be most fortunate.

I was gushing bile when I saw Shannon Cox's body shape Day 1 of pre-season 2009.

Geez Prindable is giving off AFL vibes. Physically impressive, determined look on his face - I’m already convinced.

Plus he’s the one who’s brother was wearing Pies gear on draft night?

That’s gotta be another good sign.

Great photos!

One question - the 8th photo in the set - is that Lachie Sullivan wearing the black cap? Have a look at the size of those thighs! They're massive!!! His upper body looks really lean but geez, those legs!
Had the same thought and wondered if it was Lachie Shultz, he has big thighs too. Face was too shadowed to see clearly but Sully does have big thighs, he's built like a tank.
 
Looking at the Smit picture made me think about our ruck prospects with [PLAYERCARD]Darcy Cameron[/PLAYERCARD] being 204cm. In my time rucks don’t really develop to be AFL consistent players until 24/25 years old.

There is a change to the ruck rules this year which will negate the bulking imposing battle.

I think with patience our prospects are good for talls.

Smit 20 years old 200cm, Steene 22 years old 201cm, Buller 24 years old 199cm, Zac McCarthy 18 years old 199cm , Howes 20 years old 196cm, West 19 years old 194cm,, McInnes 22 years old 194cm, Moore 203cm, Frampton 199cm, McStay 196cm

Forgetting the established players, those young players have time to develop and become viable options. They all know there’s a back up ruck spot available this year.

Then of course there’s the ghost named Condon 211cm which the club would be more in touch with than any of us thread watchers.

nb: cms are only a guide from my research. Feel free to correct me but it is for the purpose of the tall picture.
