Nah, Harrow boy (between Horsham and Hamilton) who has played good football for Harrow-Balmoral in Horsham and District as well as North Ballarat Rebels under-16s.
I imagine he will get a run in Rebels' TAC Cup team next year. Is renowned as an exceptional school-age runner.

Spot on.
I'm sick and tired of hearing about future footballers who have great endurance and so on. We need to hear more about their footy skills and not have long they can around the MCG for.

North Ballarat eh? I imagine the Kangaroos will be keen to look at a few North Ballarat boys to strengthen the new alliance with the North Ballarat VFL club. He can run like the wind it seems, but how well can he kick a football??

I knew someone who ran the 3km in 9.30 minutes and apparently they were U/16 Australian champion. If this is true and he isn't the most gifted footballer he should focus on a career in athletics.

It's the way the game is played nowadays, more of this type are needed to help coaches flood.
