joe pedler fitness test ? !!!!!!!!!!

[bayman]

i noticed on the oval after the game that joe pedler was getting a 'fitness trial' that lasted at least 45 minutes, so why would you do it then ? can someone enlighten me as to why & why then ?

maybe cd can help ?

sorry bayman didn't know it had happened - Joe seemed OK back at presentations.

That's strange. He was on the bench until the last quarter so maybe he decided he needed to do some fitness to make up for the lack of game time he received?

[LPH]

Clearly had SPLITTERS - hence the need to check they had all been removed !!!

Bloody Fuller !!!

If he's not fit, then he doesn't get named & Robbie Fiacci or someone else gets a bench seat !!

We were virtually playing with 20 players yesterday, hence the fadeout ???.

Good to see Batsanis show some very positive signs.

Eagles still have a long way to go to produce a 4 qtr effort

LoudEagleHooligan your pic of Bart Simpson was probably Pedlers test.

Funny when joe has been on the field the last two weeks form slump or team stopping.makes me think he is not fully fit .

I think you will find that Joe was telling the coaching staff he is fighting like mad to keep his spot and did extra work after the game to make up for his lack of game time.......Joe is very dedicated to the club and a credit to himself.

Its not unusual really....I remember seeing Barrie Robran having numurous shots at goal from the spot he missed in the game played earlier......once again dedication to better one's self!
