[EskimoPAFC]

Absolutely awesome stuff, let's hope it shows results.

A little disappointed a few others aren't joining them, blokes like Duurs, Jones and Sinn that you would think could really benefit from it, but obviously everyone has their own lives and plans.

Fantasia is going to try to train like Travis Boak

? They'll have to fly him back to Adelaide in a medivac chopper.

Dylan Williams and Sam Hayes (if he’s still here) need to do this.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Hopefully that puts a stop to the talk of Georgie wanting to head west.

Ideal group of young players learning early about the training required to reach elite levels of fitness.

 

[manureid]

Dylan Williams and Sam Hayes (if he’s still here) need to do this.

Absolutely these 2 should have done it. Maybe Hayes sees the writing on the wall with Hinkley staying.

 

[TazD]

I wonder if they'll do any goal kicking practice.

 

[Wargreymon90]

Doesn’t he use his contacts at red bull? I assume he can only take a few players.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Sam and Dylan can do the local version at a kickass fitness centre like SPP did.

[PatientMental]

That's fantasia on the way to America

 

[TeeKray]

I'm more worried about how he's going to cope without his Mum's cooking for a few weeks.

 

[TazD]

Reckon Raz has hit the panic button with news we're after a small forward.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Sensational news.

Hopefully Redbull are lining up Rozee to take over Boaks sponsorship role and he can take other team mates in future years.

Meeting some of the international athletes would be a great experience for these young men and will help them stay happy and loyal.

Make or break for Raz it feels.

Let's hope it works.

It's definitely what he needs.

[Us against the rest]

This is all great news then I think of the coach and it all goes poo poo.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Reckon Raz has hit the panic button with news we're after a small forward.

Meh, the Raz situation is pretty simple - if he's at 100%, he plays. I don't think there is a side in the AFL that wouldn't play him.

His competition has never been with others, its been with his own body.

Reckon Raz has hit the panic button with news we're after a small forward.

Or..... you know....... a professional footballer wants to actually play football and has taken a great opportunity to help him actually get on the park instead of a podcast being the highlight of his week.

 

[Chrizzt]

Don't think Raz is panicked as such, I'm sure he's incredibly frustrated that he can't get on the park.

I'm excited to see what it does for George tbh. His aerial ability is there, but an increase in his aerobic capacity to be able to do multiple dummy leads will do wonders for his ability to gain separation. Would also love for his ground ball game to get a boost, still a bit of a liability if the ball isn't in the air to be marked.

The whole squad should be going across. Trav should have a standing invitation every pre-season for the list. Except for those players with kids, any who don't want to go across, because they are 'living the life' rule themselves out of any leadership position. Even the ones with kids should look at bringing their families across and still doing it.

Butters, Rozee and MG going across should help push them all to the next level. Fantasia may end up being shipped back cryogenically in 27 pieces, only to be reassembled when medical technology advances far enough, but it's pleasing to see him realise more of the same, is just going to lead to more of the same limited games in season.

This is Travis Boak, not LeBron James, it's highly unlikely he's going to be able to turn up with 30+ mates and take over a venue that would be sold as an exclusive training facility. That kind of trip may also start coming under some sort of cap considerations, not to mention all the support staff you'd have to take.

 

[Doctor Feel]

pre-season thread title never disappoints.

 

[Lefti93]

fwaaaaaak

 

[Lefti93]

i fear fantasia may not come back

 

[dav3]

i fear fantasia may not come back

He's going with Boak, not Toumpas
