after jewitt had him by the throat on mad monday he has taxi an go ha ha

Florida / Wigan

the ale must be the same strength

we seem to be going through a fair few conditioners this past few years. Or at least it seems so?

I really don't need to say anymore...

And you thought it was a good idea to post that because ..... ?????

Yeah for me it seems our players arnt physically improving year on year @ the same rate as our opponents, it could be the players arnt following the strict diet regime or our conditioners arnt pushing them to their limits.



Eddie mcguiness had the right idea, i dont think ive ever seen a physically fitter salford side when he was cracking the wip.

The players are fit enough Bobby.

perhaps, its just our opponent look more athletic than we do a different shape sometimes

totally agree with the optimist eddie mcguiness new what he was doing and we typically got rid for andy who come from widnes in the division below just after finishing 5th another gd move that year we made some excellent signings didnt we! edmonson, dorn etc etc

From what i remember he opened up his own gym so thats why he moved on, Hay worried me think his methods were built on power and strenghth rather than fitness i went to leeds to watch widnes in a grandfinal and after 60 mins they were out on their feet.

To compete you need to have good stamina to stay in the contest and capitalise on errors tiredness brings.



this is probably the 1st and only topic you see the words EDMONSON,FITTER, EXCELLENT, CONDITION together

he was a gamble that went horribly wrong...

I agree with the optimist, you need stamina and strength/power. When Stacey Jones was playing for the Auckland Warriors in 2009, he controlled the game magnificently or the first 15-20 minutes. After that it was all down hill, and speaking to people who seemed to be in the know, it was suggested he was doing all weights and no stamina training.



However, when you look at how few tackles are broken and the lack of meters made by the forwards, I would suggest Hay's strength and power training methods are not the greatest either. Any team that defends for long periods is going to struggle for Stamina and this might be a more important area for improvement. We've, also, got some big forwards that don't seem to punch anywhere near their body weight.



I still say that we've had enough quality players in our ranks over the last two seasons, who if coached and managed better, would have seen our team produce better quality performances. Studying the body language of both McRae and Hay, they seem to lack any ability to inspire and motivate a team. At least one has gone!!!
