when do they return to training? considering they only started in December and the NAB challenge (or whatever its called these days) is only about 7 weeks away... it really is a big disadvantage, isn't it?

Its a problem we have never really had to deal with. I guess apart from last year we haven't ever really started the season that well despite training for the extra month longer. Time will tell
 
With a 6 month break between season i dont believe a 3 week difference will make that much of a difference

3 weeks of extra games specially high pressure games in september finals is worth more than any pre season training i can think off

The boys will be rested and ready to hit the season hard come round 1

Rioli will be the only player behind the 8 ball but he is an extremely fit player with great endurance and running that it wont take him long to get back to level pegging with the other boys - I would say Round 6-8

Agree - plus with a young squad and the confidence of knowing you can be the best in the comp will provide so much up side for the team - much more than 3 weeks of training could provide.
 
Pics on the RFC site have the team looking fit, imho they actually look lighter an more toned then normal pre season after Xmas break

I had to look twice at his photo. Thought it was Alex Rance.
The kid is a monster. Have we hired Dank?

Cheers for that, Garthwaite looked to have bulked a bit?

How good does Balta look in the slow mo running footage, This kid looks a beast already

Ah, I was wondering why he was running so slow.
No need to worry now

sure does. built like Rancelot.

most excited about this kid. seems to have mitts like Stewie Lowe.

The rash of midgets might hate him.

Dunno if the camera man/woman is hot for shorty, but he features pretty heavily.
