Pre-season formula

Outstanding work from the Swans. Presumably this preparation also has a significant effect on a player's ability to recover from an injury if they have one as well - it's not clear whether this is factored into the 75% figure.

It was fairly evident last year that our players that did have injuries seemed to be bouncing back from them much quicker than players with similar injuries from other clubs (the Saints being particularly troubled in this respect - perhaps it cost them a flag. They'd like to think so anyway).

Him and Dr Nathan Gibbs. The amount of work they have put in is outstanding - and for last year to be so successful in terms of managing players they have been working for years collecting data and devising and adjusting individual players programs. Who said science plays no part in sport?? Well, who ever did was a fool.
