    I think specialists like Real Commando have a short shelf life. Once the group has learnt his stuff they don't have to get taught again.

    I remember reading at the start of the pre-season that the Swans have a new strength and conditioning coach this year. I think RC was specifically brought in by last season's strength and conditioning guru, so it probably isn't a surprise if the new guy has his own ideas on how to do things.

    Those Inidan clubs looked to do the goods with only Hanners having issues last year. I hope they keep it up

    From training yesterday,

    the lads are entering into the standard training routine they use during the main season with some sprints, spinning turns etc followed by some end to end kicking drills, stoppage work and what I call the 'get out of gaol' drill (press in attack vs getting ball out of defence).

    Good to see Tony Armstrong involved in the main training session and not many off legs at all.

    Also good to see Jesse hit the ball hard and contest confidently and strongly. Pyke continues to impress. Campbell Heath continues to show why the club relisted him with another hard workout. Jed Lamb put in a good effort and looked really switched on. Not sure if the club will play O'Keefe this week, he didn't look quite his fluid self but there are still a few days to go.

    Cheers

    Thanks Matt.

    Am I the only one who thinks that Jackson Potter looks unnervingly like Amon Buchannon at times?

    Wow, that's a lot of pictures.

    JK looks huge as always, and I have this good feeling about Jetta.

    Player picture 104 is Harry Cunningham 44 (rookie).
    Tony Armstrong was a bit rusty as expected but picked up as he went.
    Tom Mitchell is still 'off legs'.
    Jackson Potter doesn't look much like Monty if you ask me.
    This is what I meant by O'Keefe probably won't play but I didn't want to give too much away.... http://www.sydneyswans.com.au/news/n...3/default.aspx
