Jacko on now.....
* In africa Sept/Oct - Road trip, surfing, safari and rode an ostrich. They actually have road signs with a man riding a ostrich.
* Young guys flying, well into their footy training already - learning structures and strategies for the next year.
* Astbury - very good head on his shoulders so he won't let receiving the #12 go to his head. Same with Martin with #4 as he also has a strong work ethic.
* Use to get 1-2 into the fat club on return from the break but none this year. Some have actually lost weight which is strange.
* Houli training with us now and fit. Good set of guns. Plus a senior head in Miller. With such a young group you need older guys around.
* Jacko said he had some hammy tendonitis over the break but is fine now.
* After 2 weeks you're back into the running etc. 2 weeks in the maximum for a complete break from the game as for every week you don't train after that you need to make up 2 weeks to catch up.
