Who is representing us on GF day?

The highlight of GF day to me is the brief moment we get to see a yellow and black blur in the sprint.

Seeing we've been advised by the club in the past who our rep is I emailed asking who it is this year. I was advised the club don't organise the players so it's up to the AFL whether the info is released beforehand. I rang the AFL and they put me through to RFC to get the info. :help

Does anyone know if our representative has been chosen yet or is it a closely guarded secret?

Can anyone explain how the handicapping works for this event

Not sure but I'd guess it was to do with heat times. It seems a bit dodgy though. Should drop the handicap system and any official manufacturing (hmm seems to be an AFL trait) and leave if for the fastest person on the day to win.

Agree. The year Fev won when he started half way down the track was a farce.

If it's the heat time, you just dog your heat, get a head start and nail the win.

Ryan Cook is in the WAFL. He is a chance to get redrafted but he does not play with the Pies.
