Sam Frost is all but a lock for playing against Sydney in the BOB V this Saturday. Following an excellent pre season working closely with defensive coach, Chad Cornes and mentored by new recruits Heath Shaw and Josh Hunt, Frost has been earmarked by many to have a break out year in 2014. Frost says he has worked on a lot of things in the pre season and has got a lot stronger and more confident (see Jeremy Cameron at http://www.gwsgiants.com.au/video/2014-03-07/footy-forecast-jeremy-cameron). Being one of the fastest players at the club expect him to be spending time on the 10 million dollar man on Saturday.

I really liked his pre season last year. Thought he'd made huge strides. Looked a viable second ruck back up with Phillips going down. Speedy coming out of defence. Thought he was a lock to dominate all year.

Then he played rounds 4&6 and that was it. Even after Davis went down with a back we didn't see him.

I'd love to know what happened. Having said all that, yep, he's had an excellent preseason and should get/deserves more than 2 games.

Article on Sam and his brother. Interesting that he has put on 5kg since the beginning of 2013.

At 194cm and 93kg, he has the size and strength required down back, and unfortunate injuries to Davis and Tim Mohr have given Frost the opportunity he needed.

He has played all three games in 2014 and proven his versatility by spending time on players such as James Frawley, Gary Rohan, Lewis Roberts-Thomson and Tom Hickey.

"He had a terrific pre-season," GWS coach Leon Cameron said of Frost.

"We took it to him and he responded really well in his third year.

"An opportunity arose with Tim Mohr going down and obviously now with Phil out for a little while.

"But the good thing about Frosty at the moment is he's just loving his footy.

"He trains every week, he reviews his game really thoroughly, he knows there's an opening there for him and we see him improving week by week.

"He's in pretty good form at the moment." - See more at: http://www.gwsgiants.com.au/news/2014-04-11/in-from-the-cold
