Hobgen is staying.
Unless your really smart with your training and do everything properly you will just end up with injuries and blokes will tire second half of the year, Which happended last year at the dusties. THink $$$ had more to do with the good season than better fitness.
When nyora was a good side we never started til january and seemed to have less injuries and finished the season stronger than everyone else, blokes are told that they need to do a bit before then cos trainign is tough.
The league is a bit more professional now than when Nyora won the flag Leo. If you are going to be any chance now you need to start before Christmas.
Take a look at the Casey Scorpions Leo. They officially started training two weeks ago, but before that they had a pre pre-season which ran over 6 weeks getting in most of their core running. Just means that you can get the balls out earlier and work on drills and tactics in January-February instead of getting you core fitness levels up.

Exactly Surkin, well said. Leo you have know idea why Dusties struggled at the end of the year it certainly didnt have anything to do with starting training to early. Do all the running before christmas and ball work after chrissy. Doesnt matter when ya start training most people carry injuries during the year. If ya said 2's were starting now i would agree you'd ahve to be crazy, most us havnt even thought about it.

Maybe thats where Dusties went wrong?.. There shouldnt be "ones" and "twos". It should be 40 odd senior footballers all putting in as much as eachother from the first session untill round 1...
Just my 2 cents...
I was always of the opinion the the pre-Christmas sessions were more to get the group together and to have a rough kick about witha bit of fitness thrown in. Certainly no point running people into the ground then taking a month off where all that fitness would be lost.
You might say people do their own running over the break, but how many do and those that do would probably do their own running pre-Christmas without training anyway.
Casey Scorpions have elite fitness staff, excellent facilities and a group of hardcore fitness fanatics.
There's no point Key Position players doing running now, the bigger frames aren't made for it.
At least the grounds are a bit softer these days. Some of the running sessions on rock hard grounds all summer would do way more harm than good.

Heard they could be losing a few, wonder if he is sick of them being shithouse or got the big offer and could not knock it back. going to be a tuff job for a new coach in the league.
Also took Lang Lang to two grand finals. I wasn't playing back then but everyone that was rates him very highly as a coach. Seemed to be able to get the most out of his players, especially those with limited capabilities. Also the blokes playing back then reckon he got them as fit as they have ever been.

Lang Lang had some good sides back then surkin, paid a lot of cash too.
I just think there is no point running yourself into the ground now and being burnt out round 14. Unless you have professional fitness staff looking after you, you cant keep in top shape that long. There is a reason professional swimmers and runners dont stay fit 12 months of the year.

Not true apparently.
