Kennedy is instrumental to the Swans’ host of young midfielders learning their craft at the top level, including Oliver Florent

Shout out to RUNVS for posting a snippet in the media thread. The full interview for those who are interested.

 

[GoTheSwannies]

And a humorous quote from the interview.

Joey: "And then when I got to the swans I did do leg weights but never did any upper body weights"
Schofield: "Never did any upper body weights?"
Joey: "Never did one chin up or one bench press...for my whole career"
Schofield: (laughing) "* off"

Thanks for that. Enjoyable but not as good as the Hickey interview. It was great hearing the respect both Joey and Schofield had for some of our other players, especially Kizza who perhaps is a bit underrated.

 

[The King!]

those push-ups and brick sessions sound s**t

Yeah apparently we banned him from doing weights as he was already huge and were worried how big he could get while he played in the midfield

Garry Moss, trained with us over the 2010 Preseason, so it would be one of the Rookie Picks from the 2010 Rookie Draft, Eugene Krueger, Ben Haren and Max Otten. Seeing as Haren and Otten were Key Position players, I think JPK was talking about Krueger who was a Rugby Union convert.

I took it to be a bit more of a general comment about picking athletes over footballers.

But very possible it was just about Krueger, lol.
