He also said that stretching is extremely overrated, which I tend to agree with. He said that he would never get any soft tissue injuries because of his lack of stretching.
I hardly ever stretched while playing school footy and never did a hamstring/calf etc.
Our Robbie (Bones McGhie) used to have a beer and a ciggie. He was a man after my own heart

There’s also a player’s ability to handle training loads.
Blair and Peter Burge took a group through the playing list and showed us how each player has a detailed historical chart on their ability to handle a full preseason program.
Some players even after 5-10 years in the system can only ever handle a certain percentage of the program without breaking down. Think Edwards fell into 85% category as an example. Some far less.
Believe it or not but Tod Elton was used as an example of a player who you could push hard past the 100% barrier without him ever breaking down. Pity he couldn’t find the ball.
Takes time but the club are great at tailoring individual programs for each player because each athlete is so different.
Yep. Natural talent can fudge the fitness a bit, but mega fitness can never fudge the talent.
Cyril was never a super fit mega runner but he had plenty of talent coupled with some explosive impact on certain game situations. Stacky might never get mega running fit, but if he can impact game similar to a Cyril then I'll happily take it.
Nic Nat, though a ruck and a beautiful palmer of the ball to set up his mids, often has that similar explosive impact on game situations. Plenty love to bag out on him only having a few possessions some games n complain the media drool n sing n dance every time he goes near the ball. But Nic Nat bustin his way through contests smashing space for his mids or ramming the ball forward is a sight worth seeing.
I still believe, if the penny drops with Stacky, that he could be as good as Andrew Mcleod, he is that gifted. Also tough and hard at the ball and doesn't lack courage. It will be a real pity if he doesn't develop the motivation and discipline to reach his ceiling, not only for him but for us supporters. He is a real joy to watch in full flight. Got my fingers crossed it starts this year and he keeps that going for the rest of his career.
True.
Does Sydney not 2 way run?
I have not read many posts on here, but I didn't think his 2 way running was an issue.
Training might be an issue though. And most of us can understand that.
Dusty's never been a renowned two way runner. Perhaps Stacky's trying to learn from the best. See ball, get ball, use ball well n save valuable energy by not having to chase arse too often.
I hate January the most, everything crawls, people are half on holidays, searing heat, two weeks of TENNIS!
Tuesdays & January. Calendar calamities. April & Fridays. Calendar kings.
Amazing
Follow his Instagram
Been in Melbourne . Fact
But you can believe he was in WA if you like
Walking along the Yarra is hardly sticking to any program
Suggest you get down to training and have a good look
Done little off season
Well he was at Twin Falls in Queensland in mid October with Pickett, Rioli and Eggy for a start so not sure you know as much as you claim to.
Keep guessing.
