Players who are Becoming Huge at your club.

[Ambrosia]

Also I would assume 150% of 5km would be 7.5 km?

Yes you are correct in saying that but if you word it like "we increased our training load by 150%." 5km becomes 12.5 km

 

[The Bomb]

Are you arguing that 150% of 5km is actually 12.5kms, or have I missed something?

50% of 5km = 2.5km
100% of 5km = 5km
150% of 5km = 7.5km
200% of 5km = 10km
250% of 5km = 12.5km

Pretty sure earlier North pst said they have had 150% - 200% increase from last years work load.

Yeah I realised that, just wasn't sure why that specific part of Husk's post was quoted and said to be untrue.

Because this conversation was about an INCREASE in 150-200%.

Lewis, Shiels

Biggest man in the AFL. Actually quite cut for a 7 footer.

 

[Igloo]

Jack Redpath. Although, he was already massive when we got him.

 

[Lance Uppercut]

he is as literally huge as you could imagine. What a monster.

No wonder Steve Johnson was a tad sore...

 

[Husk]

150% = 12.5 KM
50% = 7.5 KM

Sure hoping you ain't an adult!

Sigh.

If you actually think the original post was stating North players were doing 3x the workload as last year then honestly.....

 

[SirJimi05]

What was he stating?

 

[estibador]

Well even if they're trying to claim a 50% increase it's still silly hyperbole - unless they were doing a VFL training schedule last year.

That's what an "increase of 200%" means. So, umm... yes.
Or, why bother posting if you know you don't mean it?

Clearly a demonstration of footballer's maths, in a throw-away "best preseason ever" article.

Young Swan Sam Reid has bulked up in the off-season

Still stringy but getting there...

 

[rgauci]

Strange one to add to the thread. Last player i'd call huge, but thought it would be worth showing the kid is developing into a man. Not sure the taggers will have such an easy time this year with his improved fitness and size.

 

[Kong]

I'll break the trend and post a player that is actually "huge".

Unit.

 

[Old Skool]

He certainly doesn't need to get any bigger from now on.

I hope the Werribee coaches have him earmarked for a key forward role in 2012. A huge defining year lies ahead for Maj.

[theflea]

gladiator?

 

[Shaxx Attaxx]

Can't wait to see him play.

 

[RodneyMaynard]

Good grief!! Is he likely to play this season?

 

[Old Skool]

50/50 IMO.

He still needs to work on the fundamentals.

He'll get an upgrade at the end of the year, I'm certain of that.

Floating guernsey?

Man Magi is big now. Get that footy smarts about him and a tank and he'll at least pound into the opposition ruck for a game.

 

[Hipster Doofus]

God if he can ever just learns the basics of the game he'll be an absolute star

 

[Kaiser Powser]

Cool! He even sounds like a machine.
