Would expect the club will simply put a delayed pre season into Stacka, same as they would any player coming off a long term injury. Get six to eight weeks of hard work into him n then push him through a few Ressies games to start with. If all goes well he'd be primed n ready around mid season to stake a claim for a return to senior footy.
If it all goes pear shaped, well the world keeps turning n we've got one easy vacancy for our end of season draft selections. Balls firmly in Stacka's side of the court n I'm hoping he makes maximum use of it.

From insta looks like he's still with that gf that plays footy for Freo (I think), so hopefully being as its her actual season up and running, maybe they will train together. Might get him at least a base level of fitness so he can hit the ground hard when we get him back to Melbourne.

This is all dragging on way too long. The media also being quiet on the issue.

I am starting to feel very pessimistic about the whole situation.

I just have a feeling now that Stacky is cooked.

......or there is nothing to report till he gets his sentence.

I go on the mantra that in Stacks case, no news is good news

They will destroy the kid.
This is absolute *smile*.
It was a really dumb idea the club letting him go home especially when he was away from the group for 2 months.
Hopefully he can get out of this unscathed and continue his career.
Like others have mentioned the longer this goes, the more worried i get for the kid.

The problem with the club allowing him to go home is that if he wanted to, how could the club stop him from doing so? He’s a grown adult and as such entitled to make those sort of decisions.

If she can help him enjoy life again that’s a good start. If she can rekindle his commitment to his footy and make the most of the opportunity he has even better. She appears pretty switched on.

Might be good for him to see his GF playing and hopefully enjoying her footy. It might rekindle the desire in him and get him going. That on top of the taste of incarceration.

Well watching his GF play footy had no positive impact on him with his previous girlfriend, (Richmond's own Monique Conti).

He was on his game back then. Now he has an uncertain future. If gaol was not the trigger to him wanting to play then watching someone close to him enjoy playing might be.

Or not.

Is he training the house down?
Unfortunate turn of phrase there, nq, seeing as he's been in the Big House.:oops:

All jokes aside, I really hope this young fella makes a few leaps forward when he gets back to Punt Road. He's got the talent.

C'mon Syd!

I dont think watching the Richmond AFLW team had a positive impact on anyone last year.....

The silence is deafening for Stack
May the silence remain until we first get a court decision on Stacka's future. Then hopefully he gets dragged back to Punt Rd. by the scruff of the neck n into a huge pre season program.
Don't want to hear boo about the young fella until he dominates magoos n stands in line for senior selection.
