Well one thing we did regularly in the Sim, (A330), was to practise stall recovery while doing circling approaches and deliberately getting too slow.

PS, my bad about the F/Os experience. Just trying to think of scenarios and reasons why a crew would stall in this day and age, with training supposedly getting ever more comprehensive.
