i was at work yesterday (a fitness and rec centre), and as i was getting my lunch i saw ryan jackson and jordan russel walk in to use our massage therapy section. not that exciting i know, but one thing i noticed is that jackson looked in incredible shape, was much bigger then russel. they were doin laps of the oval too so good to see them doing extra fitness stuff outside regular training

Good news.

Its not uncommon that they boys will look bigger this time of the year. Their size and shape taper off during the year as they have soften the work load int he gym and work harder on the track i.e skills etc

I saw Ryan Jackson on Friday night on board a booze cruise from the Docklands.

He was pissed as a fart and starting fights as he stumbled off the boat when it docked. Lucky he seems to be a better footballer then bloke.
 
Both of them just missed my 22

Thornton, S. O'hailpin, Jamison
Bower, Waite, Scotland
Murphy, Hadley, Simpson
Houlihan, Hartlett, Gibbs
Betts, Fevola, Fisher
Cloke, Judd, Stevens
INT: A. O'hailpin, Walker, Carazzo, Anderson

Pretty much, Anderson, Bentick, Russel, Jackson, Blackwell and Grigg are all fighting for that last interchange spot. Could go to anybody really. Would all depend on form

For those with both Russel and Jackson in the starting 22, who from my starting 22 would you take out for them?

B:Bower S O'hAilpin Jamison
HB:Scotland Thornton Walker
C:Simpson Carrazzo Murphy
HF:Houlihan Waite Gibbs
F:Betts Fevola Fisher
R:Cloke Judd Stevens

I:Hampson Jackson Hadley Hartlett/Russel

Jackson for Anderson ATM, Hampson/Aisake basically interchangeable.
 
^ but you said both russel and jackson were in your 22. so who would miss out? im guessing your saying anderson and hartlett miss out? fair enough. the way i see it is theres 2 spots being fought over by about 6 guys. which is a good thing. we have some depth now

I've got Jackson in the 22 - I agree that the last spot could got to a number of people, Russel, Hartlett and Anderson being the forerunners.

Good to see us finally have some depth in the side - as it stands, decent players are going to miss out on a spot in the 22. :thumbsu:

So if you drink piss and muck up, you are not a good bloke. I thought thats what made you a good bloke.

FWIW I would take out Hartlett from the team, bring Waite to CHF, Setanta to CHB, Jamison @ FB, put Anderson in the BP and slot Jackson in on the bench. I would probably do a straight swap with Bower and Walker too.

its not just that we have depth, but it looks like some of these young guys will have to start fighting for their spot as opposed to just being given a run to see what they can do. the team won't really start going up the ladder until every man in the 22 has earnt their spot, and know that if they muck up, theres 5 or 6 blokes in the 2's waiting to come back in. now some of these guys are geting a bit older they need a bit of pressure on them instead of just being handed games
