He could lace up the boots now and still be better than all our current tested fullback optionsI hope our boys are training as hard in preseason as General was back in the day... farrk me dead that sounded intense
when we were kings
And we basically set up melbourne storm with coach and playerswhen we were kings
interestingly, in the space of a couple years the Cowboys took Thurston, Travis Norton, Paul Rauhihi, and Billy Johnstone off us
Don’t forget Jason Smith .. he was a magician.when we were kings

He was the benchmark for super fit players and teams for a long period of time in the NRL. Times change though and so do the types of fitness required to match the current player and game.Great segment,that Johnstone sounded brutal ,is he at the Titans now?
How he couldnt drive home cause his arms were so sore? lol thats fkn gold. Shows why Dragons were the chokers of that period tooOnly heard first 20 mins so far, good insight regarding doggies training back in the early 00's - speaks to why we were the toughest and fittest team in the comp around that era too.
Exactly.. what I am getting out of that is the training usually separated the tough from the weak and that's really how the sides were picked back then. It was not about skill or being the fittest bloke that could get thru training, it was how bad you wanted it and how hard you pushed yourself through exhaustion and the pain. That embodies the team we had then.. tough as nails, guys like Gilles, Britt, Pay and Reardon carried the culture forward in the mid to late 90s to guys like Mason, Omeley, Maitua, SBW and Asotasi.How he couldnt drive home cause his arms were so sore? lol thats fkn gold.
