    Hopefully he may live up to the dizzying standard set by Ricky Petterd in #15.

    We're due to have a #15 that can play. The last one we had was Paul Hopgood, since then we've had Funcke, Smith, Petterd, Rodan and Stretch (source: DemonWiki) - all borderline AFL but NQR players.

    3 mins 12 secs per km

    Not bad. 

    Especially given the undulating terrain and mostly gravel surface!

    We all have differing opinions, but I think you're being generous with Paul Hopgood's ability. I'd go back to Stephen Tingay (and if he doesn't qualify because he played his best football in #2, all the way to Stan Alves).

    Now he could play!

    Yep - the tail end of Hopgood’s career was around when I started paying enough attention to know the ins and outs of each player, so I probably am being generous. Definitely wouldn’t count Tingay, so Alves it is.

    Anyone know what the typical 3 km time is. I just ran 16 flat but am 39 with a crook back. Still knackered.

    Anything sub 10 minutes is very good, getting down towards 9:30 is elite. If your mids can do around 10:30 and bigger guys at around 11 then that’s handy.

    Im surprised we haven’t followed the draft combine and most clubs in doing 2kms but really I doubt it matters much. 

    The repeat 200m runs and repeat sprints that they do at the end of sessions are probably a better guide for how a guy might play.

    That’s faster than May ran it day 1 last year.

    Not full on at all

    Both about a few kilos fitter than last season 

    Big big year for Trac and back to 2018 year for  Hibbo.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
