OK after reading this thread i thought i would put myself to the test
i will be 52 in march and dont exercise anymore and havnt done so for over 10 years so reasonably unfit
178cm and 85kgs smoker 15 a day roughly
Decide to try this 3klm run on flat land in taylors lakes melbourne 16 mins 28 sec
So im thinking if i did this run another 5-6 times i should be able to get it down by a minute

Hahaha good work tdt... If nothing else after a few more times we might have converted you haha...
i do agree that 14 min for a Tac cup player hoping to be drafted is not good.. in fact awful as often the winners in these races at clubs is sub 9 or thereabouts...
He gets to us as a rookie and a mix of Ballard, Cameron and hopefully Marcus Adams &/or Cassidy? Happy days / where do I signMTiger said:

Is he an olympic athlete now, thats an incredible time.
Bradley Hill ran a 9.52 at the combine in his draft year which was or is still the record
K Mac ran a 10.15 from memory
Blicavs the freak runs it in under 8.30!!
Burtons leg/knee sounds a lot worse basically no cartilage to begin his career with.tigertim said:

Quite possibly my favourite player from the draft, brilliant reader of the play and one of the best intercept marks I have seen at u/18 level. As to why he is not considered a top 3-4 player is beyond me, perhaps it's that fact his tank needs some work. At a bare minimum he becomes a damaging third tall and at best he becomes the tall midfielder that everyone is screaming out for. His time in the middle at the carnival was very impressive for someone who has spent most of his days in defence, and whilst his coaches seem to think he'll require a few preseasons to build up the endurance I believe he is perfectly capable of making the transition.
From the article on the RFC site looks like best available (who we consider best) and then if they are gone small forward.
Wouldn't be unhappy to take Ah Chee or Gresham; both highly-skilled, talented SFs/mids but I still think it's being overlooked how we have tried to meet this deficiency with all the talent we took last year; the likes of Butler, Short, Lambert etc. If some of these guys come on, as expected, don't want too many little guys on the list as basically, they have to be damn good to succeed without size.
So for me, take the best talent available. Would love to grab Francis if he's left there as think a potential key/intercept back is a dawning need at RFC with Chaplin reaching his use-by. Plus the juries out on Astbury for any pace left, and whether Elton can ever make it.
If Burton is ignored, absolutely would be delighted to take him - as long as his medical is not fraught with danger.
