Do you think he has a chance? I can't say that I know where he ranks in our squad for sprinting, but surely he'd be up there?

You know, I'm not sure that even the players take this seriously. It is an opportunity to get in and watch the grand final and get on the juice with some free food.

ETA: Taxi Driver?? Is Hurley running in this as well?

Put a junked up Daniel Kerr at the start line and the taxi drivers win every time.

Give Kerr a car aerial and he can whip... uhh, I mean motivate them in the same way a jockey does to a horse.

Just give him some fuel

 

[Wizard]

Sandi ran in this one year from memory.

Sandi ran in this one year from memory.

Hill ran in 09 I believe.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

They should have categories.

Ruckmen div

Mid div

Etc

I'd laugh so hard during the ruck race.

 

[Deathly]

Ben Brown division.

 

[Allikat]

I wouldn't mind seeing some clubs get a please explain with their choices. There's not much point in having a grand final sprint if the teams just treat it as a joke & put in whoever.

 

[electricfeel]

No Zac Dawson this year?

It's probably just a lucky dip done by the AFL then they call up the clubs and tell them who they need to send on the day.

The players put their hand up. There was one year where Ben Hudson entered it because he promised his friends grand final tickets and forgot about it, and found out the AFL give 2 spare tickets to players who are in the sprint

 

[Dirty_banchez]

I would love to see the ruckmen do a sprint. Those lumbering giants might cause an earthquake.

 

[Scham]

My tip for Croz's heat;

1. Miles
2. Towers
3. Kennedy-Harris
4. Crozier

I can assure you, they treat it as a joke.

Or you could let Kerr supply Ketamine to the racers to help motivate them in the same way a dodgy trainer does to a horse.

 

[FreoGirl]

Should have been Vandaleur for us

 

[Allikat]

I can assure you, they treat it as a joke.

Oh I know. But like.. why have it at all?

 

[Allikat]

Should've gotten Dawson out there again to trip up the field.

Do you think he has a chance?

Not a hope in hell.

Darcy Lang is apparently going to run his heat, then go scalp his 2 tickets outside the ground. Haha.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

Ben Brown division.

Not sure if serious

 

[Deathly]

Not sure if serious

Dead serious. Three way 200M race between Ben Brown, Dawson Simpson and Mike Pyke. The real main event of the Grand Final. Get keen.

 

[JunglistPosse]

Love to see a handicap race... A taxi driver trying to run down Ben Cousins
