Back back on topic. I would like Flash Gordon running in the sprint. Or for more entertainment send in Hampson for the sprint

Yeah. You should have seen how fast he was to sign his new contract. Some say, he entered the room, switched the light on and had sat down and signed the contract before the light globe had lit up!

Will the club be carrying him across the finish line, too ?
In the race i mean.
We already know the answer to the other question. :chuck

He (Shaun Hampson) produced some outstanding results at the 2006 AFL Draft Camp, recording 3.00 seconds for the 20-metre sprint (lightning fast for a player his size) and an 86cm vertical jump, which placed him in the top 5% of players tested.

That would be great. For selfish reasons though I'd like to keep the exact details of Lids speed (like how fast he can clear 100m) a secret because surely it'd be of some worth to opposition analysts?

But from a pure spectacle point of view a Jetta, Danger, Lids, Yarran, White sprint would be awesome. Throw in Cyril if he doesn't get selected.

Post by: Diocletian on September 24, 2014, 02:25:58 PM
As "quick" as they may be, tipping Deledio & Dangerfield would be the backmarkers in that race ...and by some considerable margin too....

Gary Rohan ?
Title: Re: Who is running in the Grand Final Sprint?

Rohan is lightning. Matty White would be still passing the half way mark as he finishes.

perhaps, but knowing how fast someone is and then being able to better it is another story :)

A few years back I heard lids was a very low 11's 100metre. He's got jetta, yarran, Rohan, Cyril and White covered imo.

Defiantly got White covered. A few years ago at Punt Rd at the end of training a 100m race including Lids, White, King and Foley was conducted, Lids done it easy...

There's no bluechip speedsters this year! What a crock! Surely Geelong could've at least put Blicavs on the table for a sprint. Or Port could've sent Jake Neade?
