You blokes got any good paddock to the plate suppliers to recommend?

There is one in Kilmore if you are near there

One person who wouldn’t feel out of place with roolotto is River. He’s practically lived at the club since birth. He’s not a newb coming in to play.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Working, and working hard. Bit of an unassuming kid, but always shows up and gives it 100% effort. Already put on a couple of kg’s.

BS

Love the fact he always shows up. Nothing worse than having a guy on the list who turns up only when he's "in the area" or "had some time to kill"....

Been in an elite environment for 3 months…do you not think 2kg added to his frame is a realistic outcome? Most 18 year old kids could do that easy.

2kg’s by the end of the year. He is 49kg’s.. you think he’s added 4% of his body mass in 6 weeks of training? Come on.

Actually surprised he hasn’t put on more.

 

[DuckYeah]

You’re all cooked

Well done River

 

[DuckYeah]

Run like a gazelle ..

 

[rickety]

Onya Riv!

Good boy River, reckon he might surprise a few some more this year, despite any lack of bulk, it's in the gene's

Nahh.. maybe if he is on the list in 3/4 years. I hope he does, would love nothing more for Stevens to dominate

 

[nelroo]

This kid will make it. Just like Arch junior. They have talent but they work harder than most. It’s in their DNA.

 

[Themanbun]

At 300g to 500g gain per week, 2kgs is definitely achievable in a few months for a noob. 2kg of body weight isn't the same as 2kg of lean muscle mass though.

 

[My Left Foote]

Well done River, was concerned the extra 2kg of weight might hold you back but clearly not.

Will be a player.
I saw enough in 2 rep games he played.
Has smarts and now seems to have a good engine.
