Can he get to his former glory, or is it past him?

I cant see him being damaging at all. Hes trimmed down, but i think it will help his midfield cause.
I dont think him being trim will help with his sholder problems.
I know he provides good leadership and that extrovert that the team needs.
But i think with that much money been thrown at him. Put him in the ruck

Former glory? Nah, I am pretty sure even he knows that isn't possible.
If the question was 'can he earn the dollars he is on?' then the answer is ... maybe. If he is 100% fit, I am sure he will be more than just a filler in the team list until a younger player can take a spot off him. His on-field work is still good enough to be A-Grade IMHO.
Not sure he can ever get back to form that justifies that kind of money. But I reckon he'll get back to 80% of that and be in our top ten players. Thats enough for me given the other intangibles he brings.
Hungry Jaksch has a lot to say
...........albeit without the coloured hair. Didn't work for him, I guess.
EDIT: Interesting that they changed the open session into a closed one.

Players are trying to maintain their fitness. Why should Hungry Jaksch interfere with that?

Nice bit of footage of Silvagni in there too. Not quick, but turns pretty neatly.
I reckon he'll have a slow start in the VFL but will start putting in more consistently in the middle of the year and come up with some big games towards the end up the season.

The medical room: How is your club faring this pre-season?
The Blues are confident they will have close to a full list to pick from for their NAB Challenge games. While they are carefully monitoring the training loads of their more experienced players, most are tracking well. GWS recruitLachie Plowman and veteran Dennis Armfield are behind the rest of the group but are making steady progress.Plowman had surgery on his hip in December and Armfield had a follow-up operation late last year after breaking his arm last season. Marc Murphy, whose troublesome left shoulder was reconstructed post-season, is on course to play in the NAB Challenge. He was sent back for more surgery in December after feeling some discomfort, but has been doing most of the training recently. Levi Casboult is also looking good after having surgery on his posterior cruciate ligament in his right knee late last season.

The injury gods have not been kind in recent years.
There was a season a couple of years back that at this similar time, the injury list looked good and then in one training session, three went down and we got on a roll. That won't happen this time.........................will it?

No mention of Sumner, Sheehan and Byrne there. Hm.
Byrne is back in full training and they've eased Sheehan back but reasonable to think he'd be good to go now.
Sumner, may just have been left out. Can't see how he could be into full training yet.
Heres Waite
Cancelled
Has Plowman started full training again Harks? Do you think he will play within the first month of the season?
