He though, came over in the early part of the season and was fully aclimatised by Arc time...

i'm with you on that, i'd really love for him to pull it off but would feel better with a prep. that way they could fine tune things if necessary and he has the chance to gain necessary fitness. this is a new ballgame for him against the best he's ever faced.
you're right, after the arc i don't want to here any excuses about fitness or preps or of not being acclimated.
wow, just talking about it is starting to get me excited!
