Big in to his fitness though and works hard during the winter so despite his age he’s fitter than most of the youngsters! Seen more meat on a butcher’s knife. There is no substiture for match fitness and sharpness in any sport! He is lean tho for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s always interesting to see what they are on the start gate in the SWC I think the highest records was about 192bpm which is high - lowest was about 150-160ish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
