Training Preseason 2024

Need someone to alleviate panic here...Is Taberner doing work as a key defender or is it just a drill because I really hope it's just a drill.

It is a drill you see players doing pre game, every game.
Nothing to be worried about.
Unlike many others here, I see Tabs as having an impact during the season.

Looking at the pics from today, Serong has put on a heap of size. Cox has trimmed right down. Darcy looks (finally) quite trim. Ras looks like he's put on Fyfe levels of size. Amiss has been putting in the shoulder work. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
 
I found the actual poll. The 66% is misleading, as I expected. To be equally misleading on the other side, you could say 4% of 18-24 year olds believe the world is flat. Some of the numbers are still alarming.

Anyway, back to the pre-season.
Spherical not an option? Or should I choose “other/not sure”?

I like Americans, most are great.
And they have entire schools that don't have students able to pass literacy testing.
They also have some of the most brilliant people in the world, and some of the best educational institutions. It’s a very diverse country, you could no doubt find evidence to support any argument you might think of.

So what?

I’m sure this relates to preseason training in that our coach chose to go the country to learn how elite programs are run :)

Since it's off season and the draft and trading has been completed, the staff changes made, and we already know who is TTHD, I am bored and going to disappear down unnecessary rabbit holes. So soz in advance.

key thing for me is the % under other/not sure. 18-24 y.o. seem the smarter group.

Might have got more accurate results if it was proposed that the world was a sphere (or asymmetrical sphere is we are being more specific, or 'oblate spheroid' is we are being scientific and mathematical). 'Round' is a pretty generic and non-specific term and can include a wide variety of shapes (definition: 'round shape' - "A shape that is curved and without sharp angles". definition: 'round' includes "Shaped like a cylinder; cylindrical", "Moving in or forming a circle."

I wouldn't have selected "I have always believed the world is round" either so IMO the poll is fundamentally flawed and therefore, making a lot of meaning from the results is impossible. Even the "I have always believed the world is flat" group is a very small % and there are always a small % who will always try to be funny, ironic, cynical, obstinate, in such polls anyways. It's like asking Australians if it's dangerous to live in our country due to the wildlife.

Aussie poll.

"Are dropbears real?" Yes, 100% yes.

(I love as a country we have just wholly accepted this, just to troll the rest of the world).

I'd call you a globetard like me.
 
Also. Aussies naming things and jokes in polls...
They short-listed 4x names, ruling out "Rover Mc-Roverface", "Rover McManus" & "Bluey"


Voting:
 
Anyone here rate Sam Van Rooyen?
I know nothing of him, but it'd be nice to be a bit taller. He's listed as 193cm (Amiss is 196cm). I like how his brother plays though so hopefully he has a bit of this in him.
