17 December 2019 7:00pmLIVEWIRE Richmond utility Sydney Stack is at his bouncy best ahead of his second AFL season.
Teammate Dylan Grimes said Stack – who wasn't officially added to the Tigers' list until March of this year, through the supplemental selection period – was moving well on the track.
To help with his off-season back home in Perth, the youngster was given incentives in his contract to return in tip-top shape.
Stack captured the imagination of the football world with his fearless attack on the ball, high-flying traits and neat ball skills at both ends of the ground, playing 17 games before an untimely syndesmosis ankle injury saw him miss the AFL finals.
"He's come back absolutely as we could have hoped, really. He hasn't missed a beat, he's running well, and as you'll see tonight, he's training well," Grimes said.
"We know our players are going to return in good nick, regardless where we finish in the season prior or how strict or lax the off-season programs are, we've had players come back in good nick for a long time now.
"'Stacky' is no exception, so it's good to see him meet those targets in his contract and be ready to tackle the year from the right space.
'Stacky' came into the program as a pretty well-made AFL player. His personality type is that he's full of confidence, he's a confidence player. He hasn't changed his personality or the way he goes about his off-field or on-field game at all, since the moment he came.
