Not sure he was ever safe late in his careerHe missed a year prior to the issue that caused his retirement. He was very safely in the 22 at that stage.
He wasnt safe at allNot sure he was ever safe late in his career
He certainly established himself but he would have known the future was coming for him and antransition to more dynamic midfield meant he had 1st crack but had to perform

He wasnt safe at all
Burgess had a good record for low games lost to injury
However, how much of this record was made to look better by playing injured players. The likes of Soligo should have been rested during the year.
I love Bigmans Training Reports.
Living interstate means I get very little offseason information on our players, so there is nothing better than a fresh report hitting BF and reading the in-depth insights from someone I trust to not blow smoke up our collective chimneys.
On the other hand, filling my favourite thread with arguments over injury management … not in my top 10.
Can we perhaps give this thread the reverence it deserves? Take the non-related stuff ANYWHERE else!
You know there’s been 3 weeks off and no training reportsI love Bigmans Training Reports.

Even last year, the second he walk off the training track not holding onto both groins and screaming in pain he was pickedAt end of 2020 he was very safe, total rewriting of history to suggest otherwise.
I think we can achieve the goal of blaming everyone but the players for any issues which arise this yearI love Bigmans Training Reports.

I will follow Trumps style of blame and Continue to blame Murphy.I think we can achieve the goal of blaming everyone but the players for any issues which arise this year![]()
Has anyone tried to do that? What we’ve seen is some pretty decent mental gymnastics trying to defend the coaching thoughI think we can achieve the goal of blaming everyone but the players for any issues which arise this year![]()

It ain't an easy jobHas anyone tried to do that? What we’ve seen is some pretty decent mental gymnastics trying to defend the coaching though![]()
But the point being made as he said he overtrained in preseason of 2025 which blew this injury up, not talking about back thenAt end of 2020 he was very safe, total rewriting of history to suggest otherwise.
Is the word "was" missing before the word overtained in that sentence?But the point being made as he said he overtrained in preseason of 2025 which blew this injury up, not talking about back then
I'd be happy at this point if bigman just made up a training session in his imagination and wrote up a post on it. I need SOMETHING at this point.You know there’s been 3 weeks off and no training reports![]()
Shouldn't that be WAINBOWS AND WOWWYPOPS ??Ok Mr Sunshine, Rainbows and Lowwypops.
That would be very on brand for this forum whereby certain people make stuff up and their sycophants treat it as gospel.I'd be happy at this point if bigman just made up a training session in his imagination and wrote up a post on it. I need SOMETHING at this point.
Murphy is the key to everything. It will be interesting to see how we fare without him cursing us.I will follow Trumps style of blame and Continue to blame Murphy.
