Howe about this

Featured Replies

Forgive me if this has been covered elsewhere but according to the link below from Kevin Sheehan the all time running vertical jump record from the national draft camp is 102cm by Nick Natanui and Jarrad Brennan. I think this is the same height Melbourne new recruit Jeremy Howe jumped in the Tasmanian state screenings this year.

It is also interesting to see that Jack Watts holds the all time third fastest time for the 20 metre sprint and Jack Fitzpatrick the all time fourth fastest time for repeat sprints. Impressive.

Would love to see LJ's leap measured.

Was Scully ever tested? Expected to see his name in the endurance records.

 

I don't think Scully was tested, injured at the time I think.

Tom wrote the book on endurance. Your boy's going to get a brownlow with us, bookmark that.

Scully had surgery and didn't test at the Draft Camp.

If he did, his beep test record would've stood for at least a couple of decades.

Yeah, the first chapter "left foot before first" is where it all starts. Bookmarked the start of the second chapter "Need some ticker"

Tom did a 15.x beep in a routine testing session long before the camp, he was still going but they pulled him up basically on a 'yeah, that'll do, let the other kids have a go' call.

Plus he's pretty good at football.

Yeah i heard he reached 15.9 or something and was asked to stop. Ridiculous.

 

Jack Trengove also got 15.4 in his beep test, while Scully was 15.8.

I prefer the rumour the tape had finished and Sculls was still going...


I remember reading one of the coaches saying that they decided to stop him so he could "dream about how far he could have gone." (paraphrasing)

The idea was that the sky was the limit.

I kinda get the mindset, but it's very hard to put into words.

Yeah, I understand. So perhaps he could hold the thought of "not yet broken through the pain barrier"...that he could still be pushed further.

Exactly, and had he have finished on the very next level he might have that in his mind as his ceiling.

Why aim to break 15.10 when you could be aiming to break 16.5 ?

If he spiked his hair he would be a dead ringer for Sonic the Hedgehog.

Plus he's pretty good at football.

a fact overlooked by many who discuss vertical leaps and beep tests and what nots.. it's a sport called footy, it's not little aths


This kid has a body that is ready to go

Lets hope his mind is ready to go .

I prefer the rumour the tape had finished and Sculls was still going...

I heard he got so far it started going backwards

I heard he got so far it started going backwards

I heard the tape melted and overheated from being played for too long

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.
