@Tom Walsh congratulations on the new coach Dale Stevenson. Must be handy being able to build Dale a deck to pay for your board when you are in Melbourne. I watched Dale train at Lakeside one day and his throwing consisted of 8 South Africans and 8 Fulls. He said it wasnt specific enough to do any standing throws. I have heard you only stand around 16 meters so do you bother training with that? What does your throws session actually consist of?

That's definitely an interesting question. I jump in and would love to know the answer as well.
