“I’ve loved this pre-season I feel like I have a much more comfortable understanding of the game plan, I’m loving training and I’m feeling fresh out there,” Coleman-Jones said.
“Last year, I started first-year pre-season in rehab for the first month-and-a-half, and I was just learning the ropes of it all…it took me a little while to grasp things and learn the game plan.
“I know what to expect a little more, having my first year done.”
Guided by seasoned ruckmen Ivan Maric and Toby Nankervis, Coleman-Jones has been putting his height and talent to good use as he refines his ruck craft.
“It’s coming along well…it’s a growing part of my game that I want to continue to get better at and obviously there are new rules as well which change things… I’m looking forward to it,” he said.
“My off-season program was to continue to strengthen my base and getting core base strength, and a lot of footwork, which assimilates into the ruck craft as well.”
