I think they're just doing what you'd expect as part of their rehab for these type of injuries.

Perryman - he's going to be a good addition. To my eye he's that rotating with Pendles as defensive inside mid. He was working with one of the coaches after training on movement ack off the mark before kicking. Seems coach able and hard working.

This is exactly what we have been missing and why we got him.
Won't scream Brownlow votes but will be very important on field.

Just my 2 cents - we look very lean and fit.
We still look string but a different strong to other years
I think we'll run over a lot of teams.

I think we'll be super quick from D50, through the midfield, and we have a quick but really powerful wet of forwards that will be able to both use skills and brute strength to make life tough for defenders.

Very good point, I think the real success of the list lately is topping up with players that improve the bottom 6.

Now I was never in the best football leagues as a player, but one of my coaches once said after an upset win is that our bottom 6 was better than theirs. It really struck me as a good observation.

Last few years we've added the likes of Noble, Markov, Lipinski, Frampton Hill have come in and replaced the likes of Brown Brothers, Josh Thomas, Sier, Ruscoe etc to lift the overall quality of the side.

Now with Perryman and Membrey added again for no draft picks, I actually think it's a very smart way to improve the list incrementally.

Virtually had Checkers one out most of 2023 with Dan and Coxy out for long periods. The idea of McStay, Mihocek and possibly Membrey and Cox all floating around (barring injury) is a massive upside. McStay looks set for a ripping year. I think Membrey will play some big games for us too. Off Broadway at the Saints but he can seriously play. Out of that depressing side into one with lightning ball movement he might surprise a lot of people
