Grain of salt but Matt Thompson just tweeted that the club has said the scans are just precautionary. Wonder if it’s a flare up of his previous ankle or back issue?

Club tweeted the same thing. They are precautionary scans to make sure he's set for pre-season training.

Uhhhh... anyone know what happened?

Nothing apparently, precautionary scans to see where previous injuries are at before he starts training next Monday according to the report.

What is unrealistic about expecting a guy that’s spent 12 months in the system running an acceptable time trial time? Over 8 mins is suburban football standard. I’m not going to speculate on his future in the game, but that time is poor with all the access he has to facilities, staff and resources in general.
Agree one million percent with this.
I am one of the many on here who has developed a healthy dose of man love for the Kirbs but let's not bullsh*t ourselves here. After a year in an elite system if he was truly putting in the hard yards he would be much fitter than this.
I'm a middle age guy and I reckon if I had access to the resources he had that within a year I would be running better times than that.
The human body responds very quickly to fitness work, especially at his age.
Yes he is much better than last year but I would speculate that he is not the most disciplined person at the moment. He is still young and this can obviously change.

Jamie probably just threw his back out pissing into the wheelie bin a couple of weeks ago o_O

Most likely DinoSaur - so many ways you can hurt yourself just being a guy.

Was playing golf at Ballan with my cousin when we were both aged abut thirteen. Anyway, my cousin, who was a better golfer but a little dim, decided to piss into the golfball cleaner. Mid slash, the horizon was no longer clear, and a green keeper yelled and startled him. Cousin stumble-tripped forward and hurt himself.

Another example of how poorly run this club is. Clearly, better luck awaits in 2018. Why the f*** are we in training now? s**t club.

Christ it must suck being this angry all the time. No wonder people on other sites make fun of BigFooty when it throws up this kind of hyperbole.
