Reckon the skin folds and engine are about on par.
Don’t need to be as fit as Walsh to be an elite forward though.

Think that's a different conversation - our "best player".
I'd agree that Weiters and TDK are our most important players at present, because if either of them go down the "next man up" is either a massive drop in ability (Weiters -> Young) or a massive change in style (TDK -> Pitto). Losing either of them hurts a lot more than losing say Cripps (midfield group can collectively step up) or even a Charlie/Harry (playing smaller up forward is a more controllable change than playing smaller down back).

both fev and curnow have huge shoulders and long arms - neither are particularly tall for a KPF but very hard to spoil from behind. Moir has the arrogance but is more of a jack martin height and build.
be good to have a geniune mid sized threat, they are sometimes the hardest to match up on

Just drove past Princess Park Drive, boys were doing laps at the park. They must be doing their 2k time trial.

I've got the time, but do live a fair way away, do you know if they are training every day and roughly what times. Clearly the video from day one with the camera set up to show them all arriving is from before 7am. I know there are no guarantees, but if there is a pattern to how they are training? It might give me a better chance to being there when they are actually training. I've been to a few of the open training sessions, it's more for the kid and autograph/selfie types, I'd just like to see the team train and look at the new recruits.
Monday, Wednesday, Friday mornings seem to be the pattern.

Positions: Ollie half-back, Newman wing, Kemp forward, SOS forward, Williams forward, Cincotta forward, by the sounds of it.
Players that impressed: Cerra, O.Hollands, Durdin, JSOS

Told ya. Mentally it has done him wonders. Now has trust in his body again. What until story comes out about the treatment. Very different
Every kick, every tackle, every sprint, in the back of his mind would have been concerned his hamstring might ping. Would have been messing with him big time mentally, even when seemingly fit.
Think people underestimate that side of injuries. At afl level, running around with even 1% of doubt can totally ruin your form.
Listened to a recent interview with former England soccer player Michael Owen and he had a lot of hamstring injuries for a fair chunk of his career. He basically said he got to the stage where he would not sprint full pace in games as he was always thinking that his hamstrings would ping.
Interesting, Kemp and Jsos might be fighting for the same role
Good to see Cerra on the park, hopefully it stays that way

I thought that though Im still hoping they trial JSOS in defence.
If both are forward you'd think it hurts McMahons SPP chances and places more importance on which KPD we pick up.

Do you think Moir is fighting for that spot as well or is he in the fight with Durdin/Motlop et al?
