Summary
* Trip was good and fairly challenging and we knew it was going to be tough. Plenty of early mornings and hard training. Got a lot out of it. Good to be out in a new environment and overseas. Hard work but also had relaxing things to do such as going to the ice hockey and the NFL.
* A lot of areas of improvement needed as we finished 12th. Depth being one of them. A list where we can put pressure on those who have played for a while. We're building on that. Consistency the other one where we'd play well in patches then fall off badly in other patches. Hopefully both those areas come on in 2012.
* Moore slowly coming from a long way back. Hopefully he can put his hand up during the season. Grimes showed early on in the season he can mix it with the best in the comp. Hopefully get both those guys back in round 1.
* Maturity to play a big part in our improvement. Bodies that were fairly light can progress and mature. Also another 12 months playing together and understanding how we play. Hopefully it all comes together in 2012.
* Everyone talks up how big and strong they have become over the off-season. Edwards was one of those guys who was fairly lean. He's put emphasis on that and hit the gym over the offseason and put on 6kgs. He's now getting use to carrying that weight around. Game becoming more physical and some guys really thrive on that.
* A few of boys bought American sport tops. Normally fans over there wear bigger sizes but Jack went with the normal size and looked like a dill lol. Hopes the top stays in the closet in Melbourne lol.
* Was asked about Fev. Dimma pretty keen to go down the youth path and Dimma isn't one to be persuaded.
