Pumped For The Pioneers

Wednesday 12 August 2009 - By Player Blog

Hey Guys,

Had a good relaxing weekend, which happens when you have a bye, but it was head first back into training on Monday and the coaching staff absolutely hammered us! We had some progression testing and Rama (Daniel Ramage) was miles ahead in the 2km time trial. We also did some testing in the gym and I was pretty happy with improving my one-rep max by 17kgs. We had a pretty solid training session today in preparation for Saturday’s game against Bendigo. After the bye everyone is fresh, pumped and ready to go so it should be a good game and one more win guarantees a finals spot. I know if you are living up in Qld you can relate to how good the weather has been, the beach is my second home at the moment and the boys are doing well in the tan department. It’s certainly easy to spot a team mate when we play against Melbourne teams, just look for the non pasty-white bloke! This Saturday is going to be warm and Bendigo is normally mighty cold so I think the opposition might struggle to acclimatize to the outstanding Gold Coast weather! Make sure you get down to Carrara this Saturday, its your second last chance to see us play at home and it’s free!
