Baker knows more about bands that he hates, than most people know about bands that they love.

Just for some contextâŚ
The Phoenix Arizona training hasnât begun.
Rids in the rehab group and still turning up at the club from time to time.
So whatever the group are doing with the end of season trip, itâs not happening right now.

Good stuff
So it shouldnât, players should take September off, then training camp in Oct ready for pre season training in Nov.
Cant train 12 months a year, now is the right time for a break for them

âUnder the guidance of fitness professionalsâ
Reckon Murphy and Mcpherson will be there
They canât be there.
Itâs against Players Association rules.
All fitness staff connected to the club can do is hand the player a fitness program at their exit interview and they canât contact them until the first day of pre-season.
Iâm not sure if itâs a different issue when players request for it.
The only ones who can be contacted are those in the rehab group.

And if they did 2wks in Arizona now any benefit would be mostly worn off after returning and kicking back on break before ramping into preseason training starting⌠in November!
The pile on for some players going to Europe last week ridiculous IMO

The fact that Langford,Ridley,McGrath are paying for the camp with their own money is hopfully a sign of the players finally getting serious

Itâs the fact thereâs only three of them

Not saying itâs bull$hit but how does it get out that players are paying for training camps?
As a club we need to stop the headline grabbing and put in the work.

Maybe it is coming out to counter all the garbage being written about the players on places like here and Bogfooty and other social media platforms?

Donât see why it should bother them though.
If the club wants to silence the chatter, then the best way is on the field.

Apart from getting abused on social media and all that, you have a point.

Yeah, canât understand what drives a person to attack another on social media. Absolute bottom feeders.
Sadly the world is full of them.

Because players are the only ones who can pay for the training camps.
Clubs canât pay for it. It becomes murky as itâll need to go into Football Department spend and then the club needs to give the players a âwork away from officeâ allowance, etc. itâs supposed to be their time away from the club. Not a club enforced camp.
The players need to fund it all. Club can organise on their behalf though.

I was more just referring to it becoming a story. I assume itâs been leaked to counter the poor end to the year.
I will be happy when we donât need to read stories like this because it doesnât really mean anything without results. Acknowledge its great leadership on the players behalf.
The only reason it becomes a story is because thereâs an audience for it.
Nothing more nothing less.
I donât bother with whether it was leaked on purpose or not. Itâs easier to find out this kind of information nowadays than there were a few decades ago.

âPaying their own their own wayâ
Good on them, but letâs not go over board. People who can afford to, should be investing in themselves.
Itâs like doing a tafe course, so you can upskill and eventually get a pay rise.
The players should be investing in themselves.
