Yeah, although hopefully it will be one of the young blokes who've had the benefit of a few preseasons - Redden, Beams, Lester, etc.

Polec's my early tip.

I was going to say that my hope is that Karnezis has the breakout off season but I reckon Polec could make an even bigger difference to the side if he really comes along this summer.

Will Newell have had enough time to recover from his shoulder surgery by this stage?

Pre-season Eve...and you think I'm excited? I'd hate to see how revved up the boys will be to get back into things tomorrow!

Banfield's my tip, I think the break would've done him a world of good.
It wouldn't surprise me if Dan Rich improves his fitness levels again. Whenever I need a bit of a pick me up I just go and watch the last game of the season again to see him tear the bulldogs apart. You can only imagine that this will spur him on going into the start of preseason.
+1 for Wearden. Will be very much a 2014 and beyond player but would love to see some signs next year. Also we passed on Murdoch for him and he's going great guns at Geelong.

Why was the time trial 2km rather than the traditional 3km?

Don't they normally do the 3km time trial later on in the pre-season?
Anyway Crisp and Patfull won heat 1 and Bewick and Sam Michael the other I believe.

Looks like Crisp and Patfull finished ahead of the likes of Raines, Zorko, Moloney, Hanley, Rich, Lester and Beams.
Based off this tweet:
Gees Sam Michael looks like a beast there. Imagine how big he will be when he matures 
Great to see him up there in the run as well. You have to cheer for a bloke who so obviously puts his heart and soal into making it.

Was that a pun? If so, well done.
The traditional 3k is usually run at UQ as well isn't it? I came into uni this morning expecting to see them along the river. Hope they do it eventually, the comparisons would be interesting.
Nah a typo but I am taking it.
They ran it on day one pf preseason last year, and then a few weeks later. Newell won both at the time. Maybe they're just running the later one after the majority come back from Arizona?
