Who do you think will win ?

 

[Vdubs]

Daniel McStay.
Fast, tall, lean atlete.

 

[FredLeDeux]

Good to see Ross Lyon contributing to the big day, and not only by not being there.

 

[Bobby_]

Murdoch for me

 

[OzeSparky]

Murdoch for me

With him in the outside lane

 

[GeelongFTW]

Paddy?

 

[Turbocat]

Clint Jones running for a spot next year?

 

[cats_09]

So we are taking this a bit more seriously then in previous years when we entered Simpson - or was Murdoch the back-up choice with Simpson recovering from surgery?

And what is with the Saints entering Jones - did they decide that they don't want a listed player potentially injuring themselves somehow. Not sure if I want to see Jones win the sprint just to show that he still has something, or if I want him to decide to not get off the starting line and say screw it why bother.

Clint Jones running for a spot next year?

Apparently the AFL are going to tie a dwarf to the back of the Gatorade drinks car and drag him in front of Jones to make him run fast

 

[Catman]

Dawson Simpson should be made to participate again as punishment for his DD offence.

 

[Lana]

Murdoch is overrated he can't keep up his speed over 100 meters.

Name a footballer that can?

Well Dangerfield didn't have a problem doing it last year.

 

[JUBJUB]

Dawson Simpson should be made to participate again as punishment for his DD offence.

Didn't he do it in 2011 ?
Anyway might be a problem running after his back op [yes he has no problem D&Ding]

 

[thegerman]

Paddy?

Yes that is interesting. Wonder if this is just the theatre of him trying to get interest, or all just fun and games

 

[Lana]

They should stagger it to make in interesting, Simpson was quick out of the blocks, if he only needed to run 80 meters and Dangerfield 120 meters he would have just lost.

 

[year of the cat]

Hartung for me with Dawson to deliberately trip someone during the run.

Love to see a 3000m race at half time as well with Blitz. Great to compare him against some of the other endurance beasts of the AFL

 

[Willo_]

There was a rumor on 3AW tonight that Usain Bolt would be a surprise entrant in the sprint...

I wonder if he can win a hit out and if we should look at him

 

[James1970]

Still think the sprint would be more entertaining if the players had to bounce a footy, then kick straight from 40.

 

[FredLeDeux]

Still think the sprint would be more entertaining if the players had to bounce a footy, then kick straight from 40.

That would stuff Murdoch, if he had to do it on the run.

 

[Pollywaffle]

I think the sprint might show up the 'myth' of how quick Murdoch really is . Should be intriguing
He may run into one of the other participants

Remember when we played in Grand Finals and didn't care about this stuff.

Yeah kids I remember. I used to wear a string of onions around my neck as that was the fashion of the day...

Ah, the Simpsons. Just bought a Van Houten t shirt with the VH done like the van halen logo. Then underneath it says "Can I borrow a feeling". Made me feel better after this September.
