Re: Pre-Season Training begins..
They are obliged to an 8 week break. I think you will find that most of them do off-season work anyway.Saintschampions08 wrote:Boy they get a long holidayi_luv_nick_riewoldt wrote:Pre-Season training will begin on the 17th November with a 3km time trial.

Re: Pre-Season Training begins..
When you think about it, its not much of a break when they are required to keep up a certain level of fitness during that time.n1ck wrote:They are obliged to an 8 week break.

8 weeks isn't bad But remember they work MOST weekends and even when not 'at work' some expect them to be ' switched ON' as footballers who will answer questions and sign autographs, or pose for photographs etc etc at ANY time of day or night......

You can defend them all you like, and I am sure it has its idiosyncrycies as a profession but Im sure its better than working in the real world.saintbrat wrote:8 weeks isn't bad But remember they work MOST weekends and even when not 'at work' some expect them to be ' switched ON' as footballers who will answer questions and sign autographs, or pose for photographs etc etc at ANY time of day or night......

Who works 2 hours a day? Certainly not AFL footballers. They are at the club or elsewhere for 6-8 hours day. They get one day off a week and only do rehab after a game for 2-3 hours.Moccha wrote:ctqs wrote:True, eight weeks sounds like a big break but they "work" six-day weeks the rest of the year.
2 hrs a day x 6 days = 12 hrs a week. That's a day halfs work for most ppl
