Dunstan's a clearance beast but his foot skills are as deplorable as they come and he's even slower than Graham.....:shh


You do realise Graham is the opposite of slow? For someone who runs all day he does have some good wheels on him :shh

Graham has cement wheels.  One of the slowest going around.

Jack has a great top speed but I think people refer more to his agility when they talk about being slow

Find it hard to believe that Graham has a higher top speed than Markov, Bolton & Balta and seriously question Pickett's presence on those lists too... :shh

Machine's clearly confusing elite endurance with pace...kinda like saying Mo Farah could hold his own in the 100 metre sprint.... :shh :shh

Graham is an elite endurance runner. The times he looks slow is after sustained effort.

So Jack Graham was the fastest player on our list in 2020

Houli was also our enforcer

Port Adelaide ruckman Peter Ladhams has been told to consider a move to a rival despite being contracted for next season.

Sydney's Jordan Dawson has nominated Adelaide as his home of choice for 2022.

Adam Cerra (Fremantle)

“Richmond is as far out of the race as any other team. You can’t say 100 per cent because there can always be a late change.”

“But my understanding with Cerra is that Carlton is still the club and that’s because Melbourne can’t get (the trade) done.

“I can’t imagine a situation where Robbie D’Orazio and Paul Connors, his manager, allow him to nominate a club that he can’t get to. He will nominate a club that he can get to and at the moment that is Carlton, even though Melbourne has had a serious crack. There’s no draft pick they can offer and there’s not going to be any players they’re going to give up either.”
