there is absolutely no part of preseason i miss.
Particularly not in Sweatsville, QLD. Fuck ALL of that humidity.
becasue of the stupid structure of the season we used to start rep preseason in October, and go right through summer
it sucked. like, so much
That's why you're so skinny. Imagine, if @NTA lived up your way, he would probably be 85kgs and playing #9....
hence why i had to eat so much to stay at 95kg. and drink about 10 litres of water a day
My thighs are chafing just thinking about it.

Fucking 2021, trying really hard not to be outdone by 2020. @Kiwiwomble so sorry to hear that bro. How far along is the "I told you so" speech? I can remember the look on the wife's face when I came home (multiple times) injured!

An epic 15min into a preseason game, no lost line outs and a charge down to my name
I was over the ball and should have gained a penalty...and then this bloke cleared me out
....I got a “I said you were too old” but that’s about it

Ah man. Was just reading through and going to say how awesome it all was. This is why I “retired” in my 20s. Love rugby to bits but the injuries make it hard to go back to. Hope you have a speedy recovery 👊

Further update for anyone interested
MRI has confirmed ruptured ACL and high grade tears or MCL and LCL...so I basically have 1/4 ligaments left In my knee, full leg brace until surgery because it’s so unstable
In a weird twist I have been strong armed into managing the 2nds, this is going to be interesting!
Anyone in Melbourne feel like a game of code let me know

@kiwiwomble fucked.
But also: smack some heads with that clipboard!
