I said on the main board i didn't expect McGovern would be much of a threat in early 2014.
Hasn't done much track work since march. Needed to start his preseason sooner and watch his energy intake better when he's injured.

This isn't good enough the players know how they are supposed to be when they return to training and if this is the way he turns out with a new coach what does that say ....commited ??????????????
What was his injury again?
Sure he had an ankle injury early on playing for Claremont. Then he had hip surgery around round 16-17 to hopefully be right for preseason.

I'm sure they're thinking along those lines right now. He's got to have a pretty good reason for having rocked up in the shape that he's in, even with the injury and rehab.
Cheers.
An ankle injury and hip surgery, no wonder he's behind in his fitness. I'm sure it could be a lot worse.
Don't know if its been blown out of proportion a little bit.. im sure he'll sort himself out.

Can't play.
If he plays 50 games I'll **** in my hat.
Should never of happened. I'm livid that Woosha was able to make a decision like that when he was no longer the head coach.
I dont think it would have been Woosha. Simpson said that he has been following 'the list management team' instructions this preseason so I think its fair to say that McGovern and the like would not have been promoted without their approval. I'm think Crazy Vozzo, list manager, may have had more of a say than Woosha.

I don't know how you could possibly get your girlfriend into a hat, let alone make love in it.
Is that the best insult you can come up with?
You've dropped your game. What happened to you man.

Won't play half in that in my view
The bloke's been recovering from injury and is now fit for a full pre-season. He might be heavier then desired but he'll work it off pretty quickly.
Bit of a non-issue at this stage IMO.
Additionally, giving a player a unique program doesn't necessarily mean they are upset with the player but rather they're just dealing with the reality.
We don't even know if the club are upset with him. Even if they are, people make mistakes, it's not a huge one.
Perhaps we could wait before crucifying him?

Absence of leadership is probably a bigger issue. Surely he'd have checked in a lot over that period of time and if he wasn't then that's a player management problem as there should be a well integrated system where players, coaches and fitness staff all know whats going on. There was plenty of time for intervention if his fitness was a serious concern and if it wasn't then why wasn't it?
Which is why i don't think it's a major problem, McGovern did a lot of extra work last preseason and was in good shape heading in 2013. Assuming he keeps fit injury wise then he can build up his aerobic fitness and develop. Too much talent on the field to allowed to tread water as far as physical preparation and development goes.

At least this North Mod is semi-literate. What happened to that other drongo?
