2019 Planning Thread

[pincrusher]

A little birdie (the radio) told me its only 25k prize money this year or is that for another version of SC?

Hate to run out of hookers and cola beverages before all you campaigners rock up

Won't surprise me if they drop it down. Participation rates have been steadily falling the last few years. Unless they can find a way of re-vitalising it somehow then they ain't getting their moneys worth.

Brad Crouch: The good news story of the pre-season. The unlucky midfielder is making positive progress from groin surgery in June. He's been running strongly and getting through most of the training. On track to play in the JLT Community Series.

Andrew McPherson (cheap): The second-year defender has been on a modified training program after only playing three SANFL games this year because of groin and hamstring injuries. Has increased his running loads gradually.

Keep an eye on Cox
Last pre-season it was Hugh McCluggage turning heads and this time it's fellow 2016 draftee Cedric Cox. The third-year utility has struggled for a regular senior spot in his two seasons but hit the ground running this pre-season, noticeably fitter, faster and stronger. Brisbane is begging for a running defender to add to its mix and the highly skilled West Australian has done everything possible so far to impress the coaching staff. - Michael Whiting

Will Setterfield: The new recruit is still recovering from an ACL injury, sustained during last season's JLT Community Series. He remains in the rehab group, though the Blues expect him to resume full training shortly after Christmas.

Joe Daniher: Daniher has looked a little proppy at training since the club resumed its pre-season campaign, with the key forward still recovering from the osteitis pubis that ruined his 2018 campaign. The Bombers hope he will be back training with the main group in January.

Devon Smith: The Bombers have given Smith some time on the sidelines at the start of this pre-season after a taxing year in 2018 that saw him play every game. He had endured a tough run of knee injuries prior to this year.

Harley Bennell: Is walking the career tightrope after two games in three seasons due to calf setbacks but returned in excellent shape and has completed a power of running when not involved in full training

Griffin Logue: Needed mid-year surgery for a congenital foot problem and now looks in outstanding shape. Ran strongly in the first time trial and impressed as an intercept defender opposed to Brennan Cox during match sim

Michael Walters: The star mid-forward played through knee pain for the majority of last season and is being eased back this summer. Avoided end-of-year surgery and should be back training after Christmas.

Nakia Cockatoo: Just can't take a trick. Left the track in his second week back complaining of soreness behind his troublesome left knee, before having his tonsils removed a fortnight ago. Hasn't returned to the track since.

Joel Selwood: No injury concern but only completing 60-70 per cent of full training pre-Christmas. Plenty of time post-Christmas to build his running base

Toby Greene: The good news is that the star is out of the hard cast and has his ankle in a moon boot after surgery last month. The Giants remain hopeful he'll be running in January.

Josh Kelly: Will be on a modified program for the rest of the year because of hip surgery, but Kelly is confident his groin issues are fixed. Has been doing rehab at the club for weeks.

Grant Birchall: Birchall won't exactly be on a modified program, but won't complete "100 per cent" of the pre-season either, in his own words. His problematic right knee, which wiped out this year and much of 2017, has come good, but a "smarter" program is in place for him.

Tom Mitchell: Mitchell underwent minor surgery shortly after his Brownlow Medal triumph to repair his injured right AC joint. But he reported for pre-season duty early, joining the first-to-fourth-year players before they trekked the Kokoda Trail, and hasn't missed a beat to allay fears of a delayed start.

Robbie Gray: The four-time All Australian had a minor clean-out of his right knee at the end of the season. The champion forward/midfielder is on a modified program in his 13th pre-season given his groin troubles in the past.

Lance Franklin: The superstar had surgery after the groin injury he suffered late in the season didn't heal as fast as the Swans had hoped. Franklin won't hit the track until the new year.

Jake Lloyd: This year's club champion will be back on the track full-time in January after hip surgery, but Lloyd is one of the club's most professional players and won't take long to reach peak fitness.

Callum Mills: The gun youngster is back from his broken foot and while the Swans will take it slowly, Mills is running well and taking part in competitive drills.

Elliot Yeo: Bullocking midfielder needed a toe operation after the Grand Final and is part of the group who are expected to ramp things up in January. Was on the track briefly in sneakers on Wednesday.

Tom Mitchell still in the mix

Tom Mitchell still in the mix

Has to be based on last years form .....he doesn't seem to be the type of character to take his foot off, as Dusty did this year .....how Dusty got AA is beyond me

 

[BuddysBuddy23]

A little birdie (the radio) told me its only 25k prize money this year or is that for another version of SC?

Hate to run out of hookers and cola beverages before all you campaigners rock up

Could be BBL SC maybe? The BBL SC format is giving away 25k to the overall winner. Could well be that...

Sounds about right.
All I heard was 25k then play Supercoach now, then I had to go to the little boys room

Love articles like this. Sometimes a waste of time but on other occasions can really bring to light players that you wouldn't think of. Logue stands out to me. Was $237k last year and didn't play a game. Should be under $200k this year.

I edited the actual article, and only included players that were SC relevant .....so probably took 50% out

I fully expect Nakia Cockatoo to spontaneously combust at some stage. I'm half expecting him to run out onto the field and see both his arms and legs fall off.

It nearly reached my chin

Id pay 50k for 25k worth of hookers and coke

Is he worse than Bennell ?

Yeah I reckon he is. Bennell is the same recurring injury. Nakia seems to have something new wrong with him every week.

I don't wanna pick BCrouch because he's an injury prone plonker, but your constant posts are making me reconsider.

If I don't win the 50k it's your fault.

But fair warning ....all statements are subject to change ....it's a long SC pre-season
