    Riewoldt told 3AW following Saturday night's win that the area of physical preparation was where the Saints had made their single biggest improvement.

    "Our guys have really improved in how they prepare and recover during the Monday to Friday leading into a game," he said. "That's been the area I think you've really seen an increase in the professionalism from the playing group, and staff as well.

    "Prior to 'Misso' arriving, we'd had a different strength and conditioning person every year for about five years. It's no secret that we had a lot of soft-tissue injuries through that period.

    "But I think now with 'Misso', he's very structured and very regimented with his program, so sub-consciously, I suppose all the guys' bodies know what to expect. They've got a routine they follow, and, touch wood, we haven't had too many injuries this year, so hopefully that can continue for us."
