Training for DRAFT PICKS!!!!

9 news had a Stack update tonight:

- back in WA following death of close family member.
- his manager admitted Stack didn't return to training in the best shape
- has a training program to undertake in WA

showed footage of him running at training on 7 December, was struggling big time.
Anyone seeing that footage can now see for themselves whether I have been too harsh on Stack in my training reports., seriously it is the worst I have seen in my time track watching.

Wait for two weeks back in WA of Xmas pudding, mince tarts, boozy weekends, and a NYE *smile* up. Not going to be pretty.

Very happy indeed. Quite strange.
Soon as he got home he went camping
His sister social media accounts do confirm a lot about what goes on . Leave it at that . Make your own minds up what’s going on with Syd .

Quick question,
If Bolton is in Perth, why wouldn't Stack hang out with him?
Rather then Bolton posting pictures of him and Narkle Training together? Very odd.
Im just curious
Perth is a pretty spread out city, might just be at opposite ends of suburbia.
 
Last year Bolton hired a trainer for himself and Sidney and really pushed him.
Having read MArlion's book we keyboard warriors have no idea what the pressures are on indigenous players.
We should wish all the players the best. They are given all the care possible, but pressures can build up.
I've read many times that on the field is their happy place because their worries are banished for a couple of hours.
He has had a turbulent upbringing and it would appear that he has family issues to deal with.
We should all hope that we get to see the best of Sidney.
No negative vibes.

I can't comprehend how black fellas can attend half a dozen funerals of close relatives a year,

and keep getting out of bed in the morning.

Its really sad how hard it is to be black and succeed.

but its really happy when blokes like Marlion Pickett manage to

I get where your coming from. Your properly right but
It dosent help when he is struggling at training then 2 hours later he is posting Videos of himself dancing.
We want all our kids to become stars.
Working hard usually pays off.
Stack has the still and talent to be a top 20 player in this comp, that's the most frustrating part.

Top 20 in the comp !!!, even if he fulfilled every ounce of talent he wouldn't be good enough to make top 100

Talk about pressure !!

I tend to agree, he has the potential to be that good. When he burst onto the scene in 2018 he really looked the goods; strong, quick, good kick,, good mark. There was a lot to like about him, which is why recent reports of his lack of desire are quite disappointing.
 
does anyone know which players are training at Richmond for the last spots on our list

Spot on. Everyone is concerned because they have seen how good he can be.
When he was given the opportunity to play, he put in the hard yards and hit the AFL by storm. How many of our player's stood out in that loss against GWS? Stack did.
He just hasn't been the same since that day he did his ankle.
If this was about Stengle or Eggy, it wouldn't be a issue.
Work hard Stacky and Get back 8n there.
Imagine a fully fit stack.
Stack lynch Castagna Rioli x2 and Jack.
Best forward line in the history of the game.
