Draft tests??

[PeeKay]

Wow, the results are interesting. No Ziebell in the top brackets.
But Tom Lynch looks interesting for a tall forward???

 

[BLUE BLEEDING]

too bad that kicking, marking, toughness, versatility and what suits carlton's needs are not tested for jack's sake.

Tom Lynch is a grad A tosser. SO Cocky

There is a thread on the Port Adelaide board hinting that Ziebell will go at pick 4. Peter Rhode strongly indicated that they will take him. We might need to be looking elsewhere.

Watts' recorded top 10 results in repeat sprints, 20 metre sprints, agility, and vertical leap. Very impressive for a 195.8cm KP forward.

Melbourne would have to take him with #1 to replace Neitz.

Mark Williams stated openly today that they would be willing to negotiate a trade for their pick 4, so who knows what is going on.

The silly season is here.

As much these test give character to these kids it really mean shit,really. I've never seen anyone play a game of Aussie Rules indoor on a basketball court.
You can run all these tests but a real footballer likes to do it on a real footy ground. I guess Ziebell can play if he isn't in the top bracket of running in a basket ball court and jumping to hit the pinata.

Spot on. Malthouse said it the best, he mentioned that recruiters have been following these boys over there season and have an idea on these guys athletic abilities on the field. He pretty much said that the camp was a good chance for all the clubs to get the guys together and have formal interviews with the coaches and recruiters, and that the draft camp results means nothing.

If people had watched some games of the Under 18 players during the year, they'd be able to predict pretty well what the players would be able to achieve, these result, while interesting don't mean a huge deal.

yes but it won't be someone in our club that we don't rate. It has to be a top 10 selection,no one fits that in our club we will give away unless you want Kreuser,Gibbs or Murphy gone only Walker but i bet they don't rate him that high.
