he's sounds like a f**kwit.

No training is better than bad training.

I agree bad traijing is not good .... but i also dont believe a pro trainer of any sort would be worse than no training

I don’t know.... he does sound like a f**khead

I must say, some of the quotes on the AFL merkin’s Instagram page are interesting to say the least...

He makes a lot of sense.

It's so obvious I don't know how anyone would dispute it.

Well I certainly wish he tried out his “guesses” on another team.

 

[Eelogical]

How much does a trainer cost? I would assume first grade trainers are on the better trainers bucks. If you pay peanuts you get monkeys.

I think our problems have been mental rather than physical. The team needs a psychologist not Stephen f**king Dank.

We hired a new strength and conditioning guy halfway through the season. That’s a pretty good sign some of the problems were physical.

All personal trainers do to a certain extent.

I think the collective minds of the players on the team could have done better without this guy. Eg: They could have spit balled the idea of Tepai Moreao dropping weight and ultimately agreed that is a f'ing stupid idea.

Alan Jones once gave the team a talking to. We've never looked back.

Why did we think AFL guy would be a good idea...

Seeing as though we are in the Game day thread, If it was any other winger going for that try Bevan had disallowed they would have dived up through the air and keep feet away from ground.. Bevan has the ability just isnt being coached correctly..

I reckon that had the team (and by extension, Bevan) been high on confidence, then Bevan scores that try 9 times out of 10.

Unfortunately, due to our lack of confidence, he saw an opportunity, focussed too strongly on it, and forgot the fundamentals.

French is a fine finisher, but, like the rest if the squad, he is down in confidence.

Moeroa said in an interview last year that he was trying to lose weight so he could play longer minutes in the middle. Last year we also won 16 games, so there obviously wasn't a problem with the training.

This year Kane Evans said the club wants him to gain weight.

Just more excuses, we want reasons not scapegoats.

Alans idea of a few cold ones after the game gave it a new meaning as well.

 

[forward pass]

Because no proven trainer was available?

And this guy was 'proven' ??

AFL Merkin was appointed in October last year so had no say whatsoever in our training/preparation.
