Monday, 20th February 2012
By Greg Harding
Great week just gone where we spent the entire 4 sessions recharging the batteries so to speak by taking a lot off the running volume away from the players and focusing on short sharp work. The week marked the end of the pre-season in many ways as we begin the 1st of our structured games this weekend.
At present, most of our 2011 injury concerns are behind us with Pratt, Blight, Robinson, Potente and Roberts all training extremely well and ready to play. Even Luke Miles continues to push forward quickly off a ACL reconstruction and will be very close to being ready come Rd 1.
After 16 weeks of pre-season we are looking forward to getting serious and starting our 2012 campaign and it begins on Saturday with our intra club match.
We will choose the 3 teams this week and have a rough guide for members on the website late in the week. Hope to see a few supporters down at Steel Blue for an early start at 8am. (Note that the canteen and bar will not be open)
The format will be as follows.
6 x 20min quarters with WAFL umpires
1st Q: 1 vs 2
2nd Q: 1 vs 2
3rd Q: 2 vs 3
4th Q: 2 vs 3
5th Q: 1 vs 3
6th Q: 1 vs 3
