Hately won the SANFL rising star, Woodcock and Rozee star in the finals campaign while the 2 biggest names..... well the one who did play, was quiet.

Boyd is now a certainty to be drafted, but he does have a lack of pace. Has the skill, the aggression and the poise but I reckon lack of size and a bit of pace sees him drift outside 45.

Did Rankine win the sprint at half time of the GF?

Acceleration nothing special though looking at that, interesting to see his numbers in the sprint testing at the Combine.
True, however that was up against some pretty handy runners.

Rankine beat Anthony Wilson in last years sprint

He’s absolutely dynamite
I'd forgotten that, was probably 5 beers deep by then and finding some Port fans to "talk" to

if Gold Coast and Carlton are getting access to mature age talent in the SANFL, VFL and WAFL. What are the rulings behind Mature aged. Can Carlton get Luko, Gold Coast, Rankine, GOld Coast Rozee, Carlton Hatley before the draft has even started.

One would think that mature age would at very least mean not in their first draft eligible year.
Then again they might decide to do a pubes check and say 'yep pubes, hence mature'. It's the VFL making up rules to suit their own agenda again, so literally anything is possible.

No. The rule would be any player who has nominated for a previous draft, whether they've been drafted and since delisted, or nominated and passed over. Players who have been eligible but never nominated before could go either way, though I imagine that's not a large pool.

There would be either or both of an age cut off and needing to have been eligible/enrolled for the draft previously.
 
Won with his eyes closed , his agility and 20m sprint going to be sensational . Wonder if he will do the yo yo or give it a miss ?!!

Hopefully he has a bad case of the flu that week. Or maybe we invite him to train with us and let Burton and Hass do their thing.

Not to mention in this Sprint, all the others get down into their little athletics starting pose, while Rankine starts in a relatively casual stand, and still he cruises home.

Guys a freak.

If both feet touch the floor when they are sitting on the toilet taking a crap.... they are mature enough and thus eligible?...
