BLM i though Jordy had also worked / is working with Mathew Cook who is earning a great reputation in the sports science Pt world . I have seen videos of Jordy and TJ working with Mathew Cook who I understand also works with the England RU 7`s team. Again this would show great initiative by both Jordy and TJ to seek out the services of a specialist trainer to improve aspects of their game.

That was also an invitation I believe to work on sprint training again every thing helps.

Always believed that specialist coaching can make a difference even in small amounts. It teaches good practice and refines skills.

If he's still around get Frano Botica around to do some kicking training, retain Broughy to do some halfback stuff with the youngsters. Minimal outlay.stuff that could have a positive effect.

That's a very strange thing to say.I wouldn't have bothered posting that point if I thought someone would use it against the club, then again I should have known

I can't think of any profession or activity where to get to the very top you don't do extracurricular work. Whether that be a night school class, extra time at the driving range or picking up an HGV license just in case. Do you think that all the stars of this that and the other have not done stuff off their own bat to get on, of course not? All students who are serious do extra studying, homework as we called it.

The club/employer has an equal obligation to all employees, how on earth would you expect them to find the time and resources to offer further training beyond what they probably already do to individuals? The club will offer a fairly generic physical training regime to all whilst spending most of its time and effort on drills and skills. It's up to the player to enhance himself further if he sees the need, JC clearly wanted to do so.

You wouldn't expect Amazon to train its drivers to drive faster and read maps better so they could deliver more parcels in an hour and thus earn a better peacetime rate, they only expect them to what's required anything else is a bonus too both. It's called pushing yourself, it's not obligatory but to be the very best it is a necessity IMNO unless of course, you are ridiculously gifted, I don't think JC thinks that.

Why you think that reflects on the clubs conditioning baffles me, they gave him what they felt was needed, JC felt he needed more. Good for him and good for the club for recognising it.

Wow, that’s some post, I have indeed being ‘Vastied’!

Will players and coaches, be able to resume training now or early new year, due to further lockdown restrictions until the end of next April ?. Every thing connected to sports seems very unclear at the moment. I’m sure regular testing of players/staff, for the virus will have to continue, this will cause massive disruption to training regimens, if anyone is found positive.

It has always been clear that all “elite level” sport is uninfected by the lockdown and tier restrictions since May
Saying that, the RFL have given the go ahead for all training to restart (following their activity guidance for community game) just over a week ago and some of the trinity first team have been back in training for a few weeks already

Was hoping the Q&A would be on Trinity TV
