Ticked off my annual KPI of 15 tries/try assists last night 🏉✅
I set this little goal for myself each year not actually as a measure of any kind of performance, but more as a motivator to stay on top of my conditioning/soft tissue injury risk and to do all the work associated with that.
Being fitter = getting involved in more plays close to the ball, which should mathematically correlate with more opportunities for tries/TAs. Or so I tell myself anyway when I’m pushing through a muddy 6km run.
Nice to tick it off before September too after missing some games at the start of the year with a few little injuries.
Special thanks to the two blokes pictured - Tom sets up 80% of the Red Ants’ tries and his tally would be double what mine is, and Jomar spent the last few minutes of last night’s win forcibly trying to manufacture the last try for me at all costs.
We’ll run it back again next year 📆
