2nds WAFL Watch 2014 - Peel Thunder

I agree, Barlow always looks fast when you compare him to players he outruns in sprint work at training. He is faster than Clarke, Pav and Suban over 60metres.

Well I would certainly hope so, you probably picked three of the slowest at the club there!

On Lower, he may have good scores on his sprint times but there's a difference between being fast on the track and then actually using that speed in a game, I honestly don't recall him ever taking a player on and beating them.

Lovely thought. Another option is to work like hell to draft his good friend and fellow speedster Jarrod Pickett at the end of the year... but the odds of him sliding to our first pick are slim to bugger-all frankly.

Was he the kid that was training with us in the pre-season? Greased lightening!

Sshhhhhhhhhh

He was something though wasn't he? I remember us all gasping at his antics.

The kid can really friggin MOVE E-Shed. He's be a bloody handful in any position. They clocked him at 2.80* seconds for the 20m dash as a 16yo FFS! It's worth drafting his Dad as a rookie pick right now and playing him off the bench in order to land Jarrod as a father/son.

* - Current record is 2.75, set by Joel Wilkinson in 2010

yeah, I think you stuffed up the distance on that sprint there.

 

[jusjoshin]

Tell him to knock his girlfriend up. He might slip to our pick then.

LOL - yeah just a little. I edited the original post for accuracy.

His speed is elite and his skills by foot and hand are up there too. He has top 10 pick written all over him.

so in other words not for us......do we have any woods,haydens,cooks or kicketts junior running around?

I was chatting to a mate at training who is good mates with the Kickett kids, apparently they're all overweight and are just playing for fun these days.

Selfish little buggers. Clearly we need to get all our potential FS's into an academy so we can brainwash them from an early age.

We can call it the Docker Youth.

thats city life for you

 

[pokerspiv]

I went to school with some fat Kicketts in Narrogin too. So it's not the city that's to blame.

Deryck Kickett weight control academy?

 

[Gekko71]

Anyone going up to Joondalup to watch the Peel game? Plenty of Dockers playing, should be quite a match!

I've seen Derek around the traps a few times, not a great advert for the weight loss industry.

 

[FD2646]

91.3fm are broadcasting the game.

Yes, think you should be able to stream and listen live.

 

[jedi mind tricks]

Do they have a web feed?

Yes they do and they do all Sheffield Shield and NBL etc.

I'll be in Albany by then so will prob miss it.
