186cm/88kg. So probably HFF or something like that.

During my footy career i played flank(forward and back) and also a little in the midfield.

So i guess i would have to go with that. Snagging a few goals plus clearing a couple from the centre and banging them on Richo's chest would feel pretty good :thumbsup

Probably Interchange bench.

Though with my crock back I'd probably be forced into early retirement and would then have to take up my rightful position in the coaches box, where I would most lilely cause the phone to melt with some of my messages  ;D

LOL

At 180cm and 78kg (sadly no muscle lol), I don't sing "Hi Ho. Hi Ho. It's off to work we go" like some here ;) :lol.

I might be a rover's size but I'd reckon I'd last about 5 minutes in the middle :help. Need to be rotated after every ball-up lol. I'll happily sit in a forward pocket  and collect crumbs off Moi breaking open packs :thumbsup.

40 yards I heard is NFL standard. Ben Graham of the "Benny and the Jets" lol averages 44. But it's more about hang time to allow your guys time to get up the field and halt the returner inside their 20. I think a hang time of 5-6 seconds is pretty good.

I could be wrong but don't they kick drop punts over there? Imagine kicking a torp with a pointy end pigskin :thumbsup.

From what i heard its the way he makes the ball spin when he kicks it that makes it harder to watch, thus makes him a more valuable kicker!
Title: Re: If you could run out for the Tiges ....
Post by: Ox on October 25, 2005, 08:27:07 PM
I was kicking about 45-50  metre torps and 45 metre drop punts 
Hnag time on the torps was about 4.5 seconds and the punts about 3.5 secs.

Im trying out tomorrow :gobdrop

Oh yeah, almost forgot :lol

I went down to the Cowboys last night.

Jumped on a plane and whipped over to Dallas as u suggested MT :scream

They gave me a shot the gig.

I kicked 20 balls 70 metres for a total hangtime of 100 seconds but had to knock them back when I realised they were the wrong colors.

It seems Pittsburgh Stealers fly the Y&B in the NFL, and unfortunately are not looking for a chief kicker at the minute.

Oh well,there's always next year :gobdrop


LMAO @ The result of 2 half size cappucinos @ a double shot each

Arghhhhhhh the Bengals, my NFL team - they're are finally having a decent season. Lead their division 5-2. Cincinnati and Richmond's fortunes have been much the same for the last 15-20 years. So much so that the Bengals were cruelly referred to as the "Bungels" over the last 5-10 yera in particular.

PS: The colours: it's more of a orange than red.  :thumbsup ;D

While where comparing Richmond to yanky teams, Golden State Warriors are the Richmond of the NBA!

Some might say we are the Clippers, but trust me, we are not as bad drafters as they are!  :thumbsup

LOL oh so true, good call!

As for the GSW/Tigers comparison, both teams have poo defense, both teams havent been in the playoffs/finals for about 10 years (besides 2001) and they both have an enigmatic star who has injury concerns (Brown/Davis).

It's just too bad we don't have their height, they have 4-5 guys who are about 211cm, the same height as Sandilands!  :o

211cm is a pretty average height in the NBA aswell, the tallest current players in the nba are Yao Ming and Pavel Podkolzin at 226cm and the tallest ever was Manute Bol at 231cm!!  :o :o :o

That's about 7 1/2 foot tall :o. It must be a nuisance being that tall in daily life. You would need specially made homes and doorways, beds, clothes.

With the new ruck rules and circle that give ruckman less run up they'd probably dominate the hitouts in Aussie Rules.
