It's definately not the point I was trying to make.
Unless you know something otherwise, it would be a very audacious athlete who took it easy at the start against some very quick players.
I believe Menedue is not that electric off the mark and only toyed with the field once he wound out and knew he was over the line. The fat cheque at the end would mean something to him and unless he was "Usainly" confident, I doubt he started slowly on purpose.
My point is that some players are very powerful off the mark and this is very important for AFL players to allow them to create separation quickly. I hope Higgins has this.
Looks like he has the endurance

wow.
would slot straight in if we didnt have half a dozen ferocious midgets with tanks.
might slot in anyway.
if we stick to the same game plan, which i believe we will, we'll be able to bring in midgets for a few rounds.
Like NFL punters.
and we'll have a savage bliss of fresh-as-daisy midgets, champing at the little bits for finals.
With this triumph of midgets, would there be a MRP (midget rotation policy)?
Say a maximum of 3 matches before a spell?
Or is it a midgets for courses policy?
On larger grounds like WA we could play taller Bolton, but for the tight scg its
Because we have George and Butts living together, we could set them up in group houses.
House them as we aim to play them
The fellas practice working in sync etc
Then each week we select a different house to play
Alpha house is George, Butts and Short could join them
Rioli runs Delta house with Bolton and Stengle
Zeta House is clearly Miles, Concs and Griff
Professor Higgins and Bakes have a choice to make

I don’t think he was taking it easy, he just doesn’t have a really high cadence but is able to use his stride length to great effect. Overall he has a very smooth gliding sprinting technique, he runs over the ground not through it..so to speak.

Sounds like he is ready and waiting - we might see him in the seniors earlier than expected
From supporter reports and Clarke's assessment on Jack, it appears that he is about ready for blooding in AFL. Appears to have all the attributes to slot into the team seamlessly. Will be a interesting selection meeting this week
Higgins featured on Coaches' Corner on RFC site. Always a good barometer that someone will debut. Good luck, kid.
