Yeah, in fairness to Lazy, he would have been running 2 miles, not 2 ks.Nobets ? That was in the 1950's I'm presuming ?
At his age he can't even do 12.30 for 2 metres now.

Wasn't that Batch n he missed Parker????FJ was hiding behind a tree to watch disco’s son I think, when he was impressed by Matt Dea
That it has Drodfer.Heh heh heh....but you've come a long way though Beebs. I was down in Berwick today. Didn't realise those hospitals were so big. They're massive. Becoming a city on its own.
Bulk ace!No *smile* Sherlock is an excellent expression that sadly has fallen out of the modern lexicon...along with piffing yonnies and bulk ace

Choice!Bulk ace!
This post is tops as.
You know regardless who we pick and who we don't pick they will come after us.There's so many unknowns that sometimes the obvious choice is staring at you right in the face. I think we would look more stupid if Smith turns out to be a gun because he played right under our noses. And let's be honest here, his performances are virtually peerless from a draftee perspective. I cannot think of any other player who had the same impact as Jagga in the VFL. I think there's a lot of hypothesing surrounding O'Sullivan & Lalor but most of that is from a diminished sample size and contains quite a few assumptions related to fitness & injury risk. If we want to get this right then the best path forward is some level of conservatism, Francis Jackson has never been one to get carried away by the flavour of the month in any case. I'm pretty sure he understands the importance of making these top 5 picks count.
Reckon the Debate within the 4 walls is Smith & who @ 6The kid will probably just keep producing for the next decade for whichever team has the brains to select him. And in a decade posters will look back and wonder how they missed it.
I said “yonnie” to my wife the other day and she looked at me funny.No *smile* Sherlock is an excellent expression that sadly has fallen out of the modern lexicon...along with piffing yonnies and bulk ace

Disagree. I think conjecture is over #1 leaning towards Lalor and take whichever is the best of midfielders remaining at #6 which could be Smith or Langford.Reckon the Debate within the 4 walls is Smith & who @ 6
Does Beriwck ever not have traffic congestion? Rarely go there but when I do, it's bumper to bumper 24/7. Weird.Heh heh heh....but you've come a long way though Beebs. I was down in Berwick today. Didn't realise those hospitals were so big. They're massive. Becoming a city on its own.
I don't go there much either. Used to for work a few years ago. Maybe every 3 months. Yeah it's busy.Does Beriwck ever not have traffic congestion? Rarely go there but when I do, it's bumper to bumper 24/7. Weird.
The recruiters would of had Lalor and Fos high on their list coming into this season,Lalors outside game improved a lot after last year's champs,and has added being a damaging option up forward this year,while being under done.There's so many unknowns that sometimes the obvious choice is staring at you right in the face.

Has he ever taken a mark without the ball being way out in front of him though ? Unlike Tauru, can he take a mark with guys crashing into him from behind or when he has to stand under the ball for a while ? You're gonna get that in AFL football. A lot.
Speaking with some Coates people recently, word amongst clubs is they think he needs to toughen up a bit, and that's why he's slid some in rankings.
(Shouldn't we be discussing this type of stuff on the 2004 Draft thread ? Too many threads all over the place at the moment....)
If he becomes Kurt Tippett and can get on the park, Scoop, he will be a star of this draft. Maybe very near #1. FWIW I reckon Sims can get some air. He can outjump a Whitlock.
Sims may yet be a KPF ruck mix. Having watched some of his games live, he has a spring in ruck contests that is amazing. He's almost impossible to get over.
He's 200 but he doesn't seem that tall standing next to him, but regardless, that jump he has makes him 200 and much more.
