Every club puts out media releases about how the latest preseason is the toughest yet and everyone is looking fitter, faster and stronger. Essendon seems to produce them every second day since Hird has been coach  :sleep. For us though the real proof of being bigger and stronger will come round 1 against Carlton. The Blues have pushed us aside far too easily and made us look like witches hats over the past 3 years.

The blues have also run rings around us leaving us in their wake, like witches hats, in the last three years

In all seriousness I really do blame our fitness and conditioning people for this on going problem

other clubs can draft a lean player and then over 2-3 years can bulk them up, get muscle on them

Why can't we?

I've recently just finished reading Mick Malthouse's book that he co-wrote with David Buttifant. Was absolutely shocked to read that Buttifant was interviewed by the Tigers to be our head of fitness back when Frawley was coach and that he knocked us back.

All because of the way Tony Jewell interviewed him (Jewell was Footy Director back then). After reading his CV Jewell asked him when did he play at Richmond?

Answer =  when Jewell as coach the 2nd time - TJ dind't remember him at the point Buttifant thought this club isn't for me

Oh what could have been  ;D

Newman actually said "3, 4, or 5 kilos"

but then he's not Matt Hornsby

5 kegs would be a decent effort if he can keep it on

To be fair, if Edwards has put on 4kgs then that makes him exactly the same height and weight as one Chris Newman.  :rollin

 ;D but Newman has muscle, Edwards may have put on a few Kgs but does that = muscle  :-\

When my mate Billy Nicholls played for the Tiges he was the same weight & height as Michael Voss but was considered a porky

Not fair to compare  :rollin

I would assume it is muscle . . . 3-4kgs in fat is hardly something to talk about, could do that with a couple of trips to McDonalds  :rollin

Funny thread.

People who haven't seen him passing comment.

He has changed his body shape quite a bit.  His upper body (shoulders and arms) are noticeably bigger.

At first glance he looks completely different.
