Ron or Johnny.

I'm pretty happy we're taking advantage of the Cat B option. If athletes from overseas, like Cox and the Irish, can make it, then someone who's grown up playing footy can make it. No idea who this kid is, though.

Info from a contact in recruiting...

Trialled at Brisbane, Adelaide, Essendon and St. Kilda before choosing Melbourne.

184cm.  Likely position - half back.

Lives with and best mates with Joel Smith.

should have read this before I wasted my time with the Burgan interview. Did not even say his height or what type of footy player he was.

I'm surprised he's that short, if he was playing key position in juniors and is a fast bowler.

Only 184cm - no wonder he didn’t make it as a fast bowler. Interested to see his kicking and speed.

Most fast bowlers are not that tall, 184 is a good height for a bowler

Lee is 187cm. You posted the height of Brett Lee the American college football player. All good it’s the first hit I got from google as well.

Showing your age. The new generation of fast bowlers (Starc, Hazelwood, Cummins) all 190+. There aren’t too many kicking around Aus under 190 now. Australia’s loss our gain. 

Just thought we were getting a 196cm key defender - I’m happy to settle for a highly skilled half back ?

Yeah, Steyn is from the stone age. I picked a selection from various era's. You said 184 was to short to be much of a fast bowler. Do you reckon any of those mentioned wouldn't be as effective now?

If he turns out no good, he should change his name to Mike so he can have a fresh start in TV and media.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
