That chat thread died, and so did those mods, gladly, I now feel I have a license to post knackers where ever.

Had to move from Secret Hill Top Lair, it became compromised.

I foolishly released it's GPS coordinates.

Just cooked a bit of beef in New Lair (location will not be even jested at) massively over cooked. Terrible.

I post on other forums, might have to burn new lair down to cover my tracks from The Coordination.

Is the location still the Huddersfield area

For me and quite a few others judging by previous comments, fitness has been a problem all season, we don't look fit enough full stop.
Hopefully next season with a rumoured new backroom team on board this is something that will be resolved.

The level of fitness of the players doesn't lie upon the back room staff, it lies upon the players themselves .....That is the difference between a team winning silverware and a team constantly falling short ......Trainers and conditioners can do all that they can, but if a player doesn't have the right mentality required to be in a silverware winning team then nothing will make them match fit week in and week out.

And to give the other point of view ......Because of our cup run the players haven't had a week off since the rugby season started .....Fatigue will undoubtedly play a part at this time of the year.

To a point I agree, players need the right mentality, not going out and getting hammered, eating the right food and generally keeping in good shape away from the club.
The training regimes the club employ can aid or hinder this. Training times, balance between cardio and weights, the pre and post match prep and physio. All these things will get you in the right shape at the precisely the right time and is to a great extent out of the players hands.
