Hmm not sure how long it is but they do have a mandated break between the season end and preseason beginning.
It could be 6 weeks or maybe more i don't know.
Younger ones (I think those with less that 4 pre seasons) return this coming Monday. 25th The rest come in Monday after that.
It will ramp up though in the club this week I suspect with non scheduled sessions for any players not still away.
Look, so long as nobody comes back fat (Motlop), stabbed (Steven) or retired (Nathan Ablett), I'm happy

Fat?
Just wait til the wokesters wake up.
Such a hurtful comment.......far better had you said he came back in an ample sized, portly condition.
That would've been far more considerate of his tender feelings which must be pandered to at all times because, you know, it wasn't his fault, right?
It's such a lazy, unnecessary observation too because we all know that weight and physical condition has no relevance to the performance of a professional athlete. It's a myth that has bruised the feelings of so many AFL players for so many years
We're just so lucky that the AFL is so sensitive as to correct our ways.

Speaking of errrr...carrying a bit of padding after off season. There is a thread on Reddit about Harley Reid. The first photo would be a concern, but there are other photos in the thread that are not as bad. Not even sure it isn't fake...but who knows these days!

That's a very bad angle. Here is a screenshot I took of the same reel

Even big Hawkins got the occasional case of Rubber **** chest marking, this isn’t a big stick with which to beat a young tall.
He's a monster.
Similar build to Dustin Martin. Eagles fans have said he now weighs in at around 92kg so he will forever hover around that 92kg-97kg range like Dangerfield and Petracca.

Newsflash - under 30 game player 23 years old makes basic mistakes playing top level sport.
You are eyeballing that one well.
Never saw GAS, Tomma, jezza, Mooney, Kingsley drop them either. All way better players than Neale.
Good thing they never did it.

You forgot buzza and walker.
And BTW.
Gazza only dropped them when he was trying to mark one handed whilst doing a handstand.

Looks like he has a seat behind him.
Impressive to say the least. The guy is a massive human being.
A lot of our 21 to 23 group has.
