Who cares, we just seem to have a lot in the rehab group and I hope this does not hurt us early or in the middle of the season..

If you dont have a solid pre season you inevitably struggle the following season. JR is a perfect example. King will be another in 2013, same with Foley.

By all reports wat, this preseason we are tracking a lot better than last preseason in terms of restricted full training numbers. For me its not the amount of players in the rehab group but the actual players in it and their injuries, Grimes and Foley fully fit make us a serious side

This time last year we had al least a dozen (maybe more) blokes on modified programs (rehab grp). This per-season we have half that.

At least all blokes have had their surgeries and are in rehab.

Pies have only just had 2 of their blokes go in for surgery (Thomas, Goldsack).

Know which group is going to get more of a pre-season in

JR is having an unhindered pre-season, according to Hardwick.
“Jack didn’t have a pre-season last year.  This year he’ll come in unhindered.  We’re looking for a bigger season from Jack,” he said.

Did I read somewhere that Jack has had around 15 operations in the last 12 months.

Dont know about 15, but he had 5 last off season and didnt get into full training until the end of january, hence his fitness base for season 2012 was non existant. Thats why some posters including myself were deadset frothing that the club didnt put him in for surgery 7-8 weeks earlier in 2011, no we had to win deadrubbers!!  anyhow, thats richmond, good news is expect a big big year from jack performance wise, he was pooful for most of this season, fully fit, he'll smash it

Yeah the Pies, honestly 2 players and Goldsack was on the trade table wasn't he?? They also have a heap more depth than us, they could probably afford to put those two in for op's come round one.

Be interesting to see how the Blues are travelling at the moment on the rehab front.

other club that might need rehab

Chaplin had knee surgery.

Ivan and Knights I don't know why they're in the rehab group. Did Ivan have groin surgery?
