I think in the past three years we've had a number of young guys who have got in early in the pre-season and played all throughout the season. Probably the main focus for tomorrow is to see how they go.
Clearly we would prefer to train here, there is no question about that. That is the reason we have the sessions booked. You like to train on the venue you will play at and have a run around, but it won't affect how we play on Saturday night.

It is early in the year to be playing a game. We won't take any risks with anyone who we think might be doubtful.
What it means is you have to cover a bit more ground with your kicking and the ones that make a mistake coming to the (small) SCG try to change their game plan. It is very hard to change your game plan in a week. We think we've got a game plan that stands up on all grounds.
It's interesting, I haven't heard a lot about the Japanese fellow but it's good for the game that he can actually get a game, I'm a bit more worried about the other 24 senior players he's got running around.
The main thing is the team that can persevere the longest and play contested footy for the longest is the team with the best chance of winning.
