From skipper Api Koroisau, to young gun Lachie Galvin and new recruits Jack Bird and Royce Hunt, Tigers players are reporting that this is the toughest pre-season they’ve ever known.

Ding ding ding

We hear it every pre-season, it's the toughest ever, then they start the season like they've never trained before.

I don't even know if it is a good thing. It's a tough long season and I'm not sure if going hard the whole time is going to help or hurt over the course of the season.

I drive past the COE regularly and I see them training. They are working hard but what do you expect.

It's a very good point you make Tiger.
After doing a little research into this I've established that muscle fibres run from very shallow (from skin) to very deep (to the bone).
The shallow smaller fibres are easily stretched, even torn but usually repair very quickly.
Bigger muscle groups take longer to heal and of course interconnecting tendons and ligaments if torn can be anywhere from 4wks to a season ending. (hamstrings and knee injuries the most common)
In normal football training out on the field doing all sorts of drills and running plays it's not really effecting the body groups that's going to burn out half way through the season.
Any body building workouts are usually done in the pre-Christmas period so they can recover over the Christmas break. This is important because big muscles become very tight, bunched up and sore.
When they come back in the new year it's more team and ball work.

The 1 thing they need to be going hard at the whole time during the off-season is learning how to tackle.Weve been the most spineless apathetic defensive team for what seems like an eternity.

@Nutz indicated there size before, but I didn’t realise they were the biggest?
Pretty impressive for the club to achieve this, considering we have 3 spoons in a row to our credit.
Can only mean that sponsors and players are seeing the potential direction as positive.

The potential direction of the rabble has been positive many times in previous yrs but has consistently gone pear shaped.We are primarily attractive from an advertising aspect coz we have a massive fan base & a prominent emblem.
