Luke Meehan and Conditioning team
- Thread starter caesar
- Start date
Just get rid of him and start putting all the money the members give towards developing and Fitness and conditioning.
The bloke from Adelaide that spent time in the premier league shouldve been the 1st on the list.
Players played injured, players returning too soon. Players down to 2-3 weeks turning to 8-10 weeks.
We need to concentrate on Footy, the club spends alot of time on things nothing to do with Football.
We should never be in this situation.
Not the greatest start to the year...the injuries are so contagious, I tore a calf reading this thread.
Must have an investigation to see what is going wrong, and if it's lack of competence...Capuano them.

Our system of conditioning doesn't seem to be working as we are getting far too many sore calf injuries so early in the season so doesn't bode well when the grounds get heavy
I'm of an other opinion in regards to these sports injuries at RFC.
I'm thinking the new broom that swept through the Club...Coaching and assistant wise...made a wrong judgement call in regards to the over all fitness levels of the Club's players.
In their haste to raise the fitness levels they may just have miscalculated how the newer levels would affect an ageing and well worn group of ageing premiership stars.
Too many ageing stars just canna compete against the rising young stars of the AFL!
Left their best performances on the pre-season training tracks...
Ageing bodies and their legs are just being exposed espesh on dry sun baked grounds...and hot playing conditions.
Climate change is no joke!

Tore a calf eh , General , what’s that white powder on your nose ?
Young players must be concerned when we draft them and deliver them into the hands of Louie the Butcher.
well we don’t know that’s for sure
Grimes, Gibcus, Young, Martin are all impact injuries - what can you do, same with Lynch last year.
Hopper - who knows
MJR and Prestia - we know Prestia has had a long history so we know his body is not up to it
So who have I missed
The above may be 100% correct and, if it is, it further shows that this part of the RFC is letting the players down and needs to be cleaned out and re-built.
+ Bauer, Graham, Trezise, Fawcett, Colina, Broad and its only round 3. Leading the league in injuries. Nothing to see here.

Hear what u r saying danrioli, but unless they are moving those guys out they will just trot out the party lines.
"We are backing our guys in" and shut the convo down.
U get feeling it will prob have to get a lot worse before the spotlight truly comes on.
Hope I'm wrong.
My kids whizz fizz. You got me. I ate that *smile* to stop my four year old going hyper and having a mid afternoon meltdownTore a calf eh , General , what’s that white powder on your nose ?
Maybe the older players that's true .In saying that why was Prestia played after a 5 day break with his history , Dusty been carrying this injury some weeks again playing , and the debacle with Hopper after rd 3 he needs to go in for a clean up while all preseason where told his had all his surgery and flying just doesn't add up.
Even our kids are falling down like flys. What's happening with Bauer, Colina , Fawcett. Last year it was Gibcus all year and it took till this preseason to realise he needed to go abroad.
The Gibcus hamstring wasn’t an impact injury.
In terms of injury management, the club has fallen to bits since Rob Innes left.
I’m sorry but we’ll agree to disagree on this one
