I always just assumed that Balga was being spelt incorrectly and that it was supposed to be Ballgag, which coincidentally would seem somewhat appropriate :stern look

Wagner wins the beep test. Aww yeah.

I'm quite surprised that we still conduct beep tests. Most clubs stopped doing this years ago due to the strain they put on knees as a result of the significant amounts of lateral movement under progressive loading/fatigue.

At least, that's what I was told by my doctor who is a highly regarded former AFL club medico. He told me this as he was examining my knee which I f***ed up doing a beep test.

Absolutely, but without as many sharp changes of direction in such a short time frame.

 

[True North]

If an 18yo's knee can't handle a beep then surely it won't handle twisting on a footy field?

Don't see many tennis players doing ACLs.

They slide on a tennis court(especially clay). You can't do that with stops on the sole of your boot on a completely different surface.

There's a lot of knee injuries in tennis, espeically considering that it's not a contact sport.

Or when you're getting tackled.

Which is a shame, as it would make tennis far more entertaining.

Would give the orgasm screaming women a reason to make those ungodly noises.

I drove past there at about 11:30 and no one was training. I think Wednesday is their day off

Gibson is there running laps by himself.

Now is your chance.

Gibbo heads down on Wednesday for a jog by himself. Reckon he'd be in for a catch up, just don't take your kids.

Just saw Majak walking across the road... So exciting.

Anyway, I'm back for a few weeks so I will get my fill at some stage.
