So why is his approach to training and fitness now being described as unprofessional?  And why does he have to complete a specific training block before being considered for selection?

I get that the coach has to stand up for his players but it sounds like Mitch was being a decoy at training too.  It’s not a good look for the coach to be saying one thing and the club to apparently contradict his message.

My main concern is how McGovern lost condition this far into the season.  I would have expected Russell to pick up any fitness issues before they became a concern.

Did they call it unprofessional? Teague said at his presser last week that McGovern had barely made it to they training track due to ongoing issues with back and ankle problems. Maybe he was a decoy. If he wasn't in shape to get a kick you have to use him as something. Now they are going with a conditioning block for him. Interesting time this late in the year. Should have been a long while ago. Shouldn't have been playing and sorting his issues.
