Just an absurd individual. His athletics background stood out in the warmups today. He has a beautiful stride and gaitDon't think Kyron has any body-fat at all.

If he makes every stride look like he's reached the finish line first then we're on to a winner for a long time with this one.
I noticed how in that picture he's the only one whose foot strike was beneath his centre of gravity. Didn't know he had an athletics background but that makes sense.Just an absurd individual. His athletics background stood out in the warmups today. He has a beautiful stride and gait
Waussie may correct me but I believe Kyron ran hurdles at Hale SchoolI noticed how in that picture he's the only one whose foot strike was beneath his centre of gravity. Didn't know he had an athletics background but that makes sense.
Bloody hell, no idea. I know his dad's dad held a state running record for a few years, so maybe he's had some training?Waussie may correct me but I believe Kyron ran hurdles at Hale School
He's a bit more mobile for mine, although that's going by nothing more than some highlights..
He plays like a 1990's HFF (not Winston).
He certainly appears determined to give it his all, as is written all over his face in the second pic. I reckon we have an absolute beauty here in Ford.

Vertical leap is elite which is handy with him liking to attack the footy in the air.He'll need to, because he doesn't appear to be athletically elite at any trait, but he is a natural footballer and that's the most important trait he can have.
I just hope they cultivate his individuality and daring. If he can physically get up to AFL standard, then he has definite X factor capability and flexibility as a player.
Of course, there a couple of "if's", a few hurdles and a dash of luck required to get their first, but the kid looks like he's not going to die wondering, and that's what really matters in life.
His tank is fine. Worked hard on it last preseason and was primed to play midfield in 2020.Vertical leap is elite which is handy with him liking to attack the footy in the air.
20 meter sprint time of 2.95 might not be elite but it’s pretty close for a guy his height.
Athletically he has heaps going for him, other than his tank
Can’t understand how he slipped so farHis tank is fine. Worked hard on it last preseason and was primed to play midfield in 2020.
Runs a better than average 2km time trial.
everyone said Archie Perkins was a freak athlete and Eddie matches him in every just about every type of testing.

Yeah we are well stocked there. Hope some can turn into mids.Many clubs are in poach mode these days (free agency) and focus heavily on the engine room.
We may very well have an excess of quality half forwards in the near future.

Let’s hope they can turn into A grade half forwards!!!Yeah we are well stocked there. Hope some can turn into mids.
He can have some of mineDon't think Kyron has any body-fat at all.
Eddie ran a 6:47 2km at the Combine and has been around this mark for for 2-3 years. It’s about the same time that Will Phillips runs yet Will’s engine has never been questioned. Eddie’s also kept his aerobic standard whilst putting on plenty of bulk and height. For whatever reason it seems like Eddie’s had to do more convincing than others to get to where he is. Whether it’s his public school (non APS) background, coming from the unfavoured Jets or because his unique personality is being mistaken for something else. He’s a driven, engaging and talented kid who appreciates and won’t stop repaying the faith North have shown in him.Vertical leap is elite which is handy with him liking to attack the footy in the air.
