That's the other important part of that interview.I'm guessing those two would be Kostjasyn who has already signed and Buhrer(?). Both solid signings, not the flashiest but definitely a step in the right direction for future recruitment. Brown isn't going to hold back in the pre-season either, they're going to get flogged.
He says 3 guys showed up at last pre season 10kg overweight (Pat Mat, Mataora, Uate and Snowy?) and said it took till the end of pre season for them to be where they should have been at the start. He then goes on to say the young guys have had it stressed to them that they need to show up fit to get into training.
I read all the reports and watched all the footage last pre season, and, at the time, it all seemed to be going well. Afterwards we heard that guys like Snowy, Mullo, Hodko, Gagai, Rochow, Stockwell were all getting over injuries and barely trained, others were fat and unmotivated, and it was basically just kids like Cogger, Lamb, Pearsall, Braidie Smith, Levi etc who were having a go.
