I’m no fitness expert but that doesn’t seem ideal for us…

I’m no fitness expert but that doesn’t seem ideal for us…

You would assume we would ship out the A team against brisbane and a weaker team against gold coast, or rotate all the players around for different quarters like they did last year, she’ll be right!

 

[BillyElliott]

I’m no fitness expert but that doesn’t seem ideal for us…

... because of the longer break inbetween?

I think you've underestimated Parker's pace.

I don't think so BUT I hope he has Markov's pace, which is blistering.
Sadly I've never seen Parker using after burners.
I'd love to be wrong.

Did you watch him on Charlie Cameron when we beat them. Wasn’t disgraced

[Daicos Torpedo]

What happened to Pendles at training?

Could you try reframing the question?
I've heard reports Pendles got a blood nose after picking for gold. Can anyone verify?
I saw on Social media that one of our players apparently has a basketball background. Can anyone confirm?
Etc...

What happened to Pendles at training?

That was McStay in number 10. He received contact to the back from TJ in a marking contest. Nothing’s out there yet so he’s either fine or awaiting the result of scans.

What happened to Pendles at training?

Did he mess up the time space continuum?

 

[JLC]

What do you mean?

Hobbled off with a knee injury? Or as someone else stated was that McStay in the number 10?

Waiting for the Ch7 report.

 

[Mr Cannons]

What happened to Pendles at training?

Think it was mcstay

Watching how commanding Cox was aerially at training is why I’m backing in the two rucks setup. He wasn’t plucking everything, but no one could beat him. I think the key to his fortunes is how we use him against certain teams. Against say Hawthorn or St Kilda he misses or doesn’t play forward because he’s a liability against Sicily/ Wilkie.

McStay and Frampton going through the ruck could be about flexibility as much as anything because Cox is getting on and neither Smit or Steene is remotely ready. The reality is we aren’t going to get 50 matches from McStay and Mihocek combined this year so Membrey is fantastic insurance.

It depends on game style whether you want Cox. When it's coming in quick to an open forward line, you don't want him, as good interceptors zone off him and cut him to pieces. But if it's coming in to a set defence, you want his aerial threat and there's also more forward 50 stoppages where he makes us more dangerous as well.

Either way, you're going to use McStay as ruck in training from time to time, so I don't think it points to anything either way - a comeback tactic is going to be sub off a ruck and go manic, in which case McStay will probably chop out in the ruck. And even if 2 rucks are playing, when one is on the bench, you might get McStay to take forward 50 ruck with the ruckman dropping back as part of our wall to lock it in.

You’d think that if it was anything remotely serious a mainstream media outlet would have been all over it by now.

Is Nick basically in full training now? Heard he was involved in everything today?

Felt that way. He did everything. Match sim and all.
