Training Pre-Season 2025 - (Pre-pre-season?) - Road to Flagmantle

[Andy Brennan]

If Darcy gets a full preseason I'm sure he'll get to okay shape and be fine. Just no more injuries pleae

 

[freo1]

He won’t. He’s been with us what, seven years? Sucking a million bucks out of the club for 12 games a season

You must have forgotten the Doig medal in 2021, AA nomination in 2021, AA under 22 in 2018 and 2020, all before he had this injury run.

I guess whenever you're sick or injured you obviously still work at 110% in your life.

Well I work for myself so am rarely at over 70% but I’m not a footballer whose injuries have become a joke the last three years, who when he does get injured means there’s a huge knock on effect with the rhythm and form of other players, and the effectiveness of a team. I’m not taking up a huge percentage of the salary cap, and it means other players get paid less who deserve more. He’s very good when he’s on song but that’s for what, seven games a year? If he’s not injured then he’s trying to play back into form. I don’t care about him and that’s okay.

He needs to get fit or his knee will keep buckling.

Honestly thought he looked pretty good the other day, especially considering he recently had surgery. Weird how every post of a player in here just gets turned into hate on Darcy

Because emotionally it doesn't feel good to concede that what has been holding our team back thus far is inexperience and bad luck. A much more simple, and therefore compelling narrative is that one person is responsible, and they are responsible for a specific socially-stigmatised trait like being fat.

Is he fat or just big around the waist?

He's just big boned...

Appreciate that greatly
