Blake's father, Barry, is one of Australia's best ever 800m runners (PB of 1.45.7). Only half a dozen or so oz athletes have beaten that time in the last 25 years, so Blake's athletics pedigree is absolutely top of the range. Blake ran a 15.2 beep test at the state combine despite having a serious shoulder injury that would have held back his training for a couple of months mid season, so he already has a naturally good tank. Interesting comments from some of the phantom drafters who had him as a potential top five pick... with his all round footy skills and his elite athletic genes the sky is the limit. With our great pick-ups in the off season we should have a very different (and way more competitive) unit ready to go in round one of 2014. Hopefully Acres is in from the outset.
Go Saints!
