Is there any reason why they only release the top 10 in most of the facets tested?

Dont know was just on the AFL website. i was wondering do they still do the 3km time trail? I know Scully can run it in 9.20's well he has.

It has been traditional that the AFL has only released top 10 however in the kicking test hacve only shown top 2 .I wonder if the main reason is they only want to show so callwed best and not show the ones that were average or even poor. No doubt the recruiting staff would be able to get total results.

It may be a good question to ask the AFL directly.

Dylan Grimes is testing well , would love to see him join his brother if he lasts until 34

Actually Grimes surprised me -I thought he was overall good -far better than I xpected.

With the conclusion of draft camp and moving onto trade week.

Thought this may be of interest as to how MFC is thinking about the upcoming draft.

The number of smalls invited to the camp reflects how few tall prospects are worthy in this year’s draft pool, with just three of the eight ruckmen measuring over 198cm.

Melbourne recruiting manager Barry Prendergast, said as long as players can kick, think, run and compete, then they are in with a chance, no matter their height.

West Coast’s 2006 premiership team included Ben Cousins, Daniel Kerr, David Wirrpanda and Michael Braun, who were all under 180cm.

“We’re a lot more open-minded these days about who we pick,” Prendergast said.

“Kicking has always been important but there’s such a huge premium placed on it now. If you had a choice, you’d take the bloke who’s two or three centimetres shorter but has better kicking skills.

“You look at how important small forwards and their pressure are these days. Every team needs one now and clubs are almost running around with two, which means you need to find players to match up on them.”

NEWS @ DRAFT CAMP RE McLean- it was told to me that originally MFC wanted pick 11 & pick 27 for McLean & pick 34.Therefore, Carlton may not be stalling in -we may still be demanding this change- however, it was strongly thought pick 11 would end up being the exchange. Furthermore, the picks as at start of trade week were ashttp://www.afl.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/208/newsid/85726/default.aspx.

all this test mean nothing, it is over rated in seeing how a younger will be able to play footy, speedness of decision making is more important then speed of legs look at SAM Mitchell, he is not fast but fast in his thinking and has a sense of urgency,bell is as fast as davey but has no urgency,no awarness of whats around him,his leg are fast but his mind is slow so while he is thinking about the ball is 100 meters away,from him.

I would say the 3km trial has more to do with aerobic capacity then speed.
