Another inside scoop: all clubs talking to a lot of players.

This was the reply i got:

and are entered and updated as each group goes through so you only have one screen's worth of data to look at and at the end of the 20m sprint when all the participants had been through those 13 times were all that was on the screen. Sorry.

Watched Ziebell - from memory his times were above 3.00 secs - a bit slow but Sidebottom's were very slow. Hurley was a bit below 3.00, I think, and I was very impressed by him. Strauss was in the same group as Shuey, Swift and DeBoer but can't remember his times - sorry. Hartlett, Rich and Beams from that group didn't run. There were a lot of players around the 3.00 - 3.10 secs.

I'm sure results will be on the AFL website tonight.

Reading that, the times should be roughly
Ziebell was 3.00 - 3.10
Sidebottom was 3.05+
Hurley 2.95 - 3.00

[Cruiser23]

Hurley sub 3.00? WTF?!

[jetta2davey]

[LukeHodge15]

Hurley Holy Shit
Vickery Holy ****ing Shit

 

[Burzum]

lock him in at pick 5

If that speed is accurate. Yep.

 

[Salaryman]

Hurley times are a tad exaggerated

 

[Cruiser23]

More from what he said:

From memory Pearce - who is a solid unit was about 3.00 secs and Blight was a little slower.

Don't shoot the messenger if it isn't true

 

[jgb99]

Hurley Holy Shit
Vickery Holy ****ing Shit

Hurley I agree, but Vickery has always looked very athletic to me.

 

[Bourky23]

Hurley Holy Shit
Vickery Holy ****ing Shit

haha yep! Vickery is like a dinosaur! (obviously a ****ing quick one!)

good boy

 

[LukeHodge15]

Yeah athletic but didnt expect him to throw out a lightening time like that for a Ruckman.......... In Shock

Watts time was expected, his speed was never in question. No other real surprises on that Top 10 list.

 

[bomba4eva]

What makes you say that?

If the time is correct I am right back on the Hurley bandwagon! FB for the next decade. Yes I will try and contain my excitement but I have been waiting for the 20m sprint results for a number of weeks after hearing about all the queries on Hurley's pace! On ya Hurley (if true).

 

[Cruiser23]

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest, sub 3.00 does seem a little quick for Hurley.

Re: Draft Camp Results

Has Sheehan heard of Usain Bolt and that he's 6'6"?

petigrew (193cm) was hugely fast over 100m before he put alot of bulk on-- those tall kids can cover ground when they open their stride. but acceleration and agility are more important in footy. would love to see what someone with the speed of bolt could do on the field though. did anyone see dwight howard at the olympics??? that guy is an athlete- 6'11 and looked bigger and stronger than anyone ive seen and had an amazing leap and quickness!!! i think he has a jumping reach of 12 foot 6 inches ( or maybe 12'' 8 i cant remember??) from his antics at the dunk comp. does anyone know how that compares to any results from the afl players testing????

Hurley times are a tad exaggerated

Yeah, I reckon the bloke that post on the other forum just got it a bit wrong. He would've had so many times to try and take in, so it's no big deal.

Hurley would not break 3.00.

 

[Quigley]

Hurley under 3 would definate surprise. Agility score will be more telling though I think.

 

[Blueinblood]

WOH HURLEY!!!!!

 

[IddyBiddy]

SEN just reported that Naitanui equalled Brennan's running vertical and 78cm in standing, which is 5cm short of Croad's 97 record.
