Wait until you see the guys who can do it for 2 hours, that will knock your socks off.

If you ever cycle to work and cover around 21km in an hour, it's scary to realise you are only travelling at marathon world record pace.

Re: Sharp - My Brisbane supporting mate said the following;

I think he’s an AFL standard player who is probably 23rd-28th in line for a spot in our line up.  Lions rate him massively, best runner at the club.  Think you’re getting a good one tbh.  Sharp played a handful of games and was emergency for just about every other one in the last 2-3 years. Consistently just about our best VFL player.  Just victim of our list. He’s a winger for sure, but can play inside. Surprisingly tough. Query is on his kicking but it isn’t terrible.

 

Traits similar to Langdon. Hope he spends the summer mentoring him

No AFL highlights on the MFC forum for Sharp but there’s a dodgy clip of one of his AFL goals on YouTube.

edit - tried to post on this thread but no luck

I did 100m in 9.58s in my Datsun yesterday and it terrified the beejesus out of me

Obviously wasn't a 180B unless you change that 9.58s to 9.58m

Highlights 

 

No problems in highlights! Can mark, has flair and seems a good kick (despite what they say! Despite highlights only showing the good side, I am happy with the trade. 👍

120Y perhaps 🤔

Not high enough and too far away from opposition interceptors for my liking.

Not easily satisfied. Looks fast enough for you I hope.

Are we starting a grid iron team?

Caleb best in the centre to have forward impact at its highest point. Will be a revelation in this role and 20 goals could be the reward also.

Geelong have done very well with Holmes at half back just sprinting to space, it’s a valid use of speed to break forward presses and zones.

But I’d rather get form and fitness in to the 2 you named and Juddy. Maybe Howes and AMW too.

Speed from the stoppage is the dream, might be a couple of years before Caleb has the body for that though. I like trialling some of the half forward option to begin with and breaking zones open there.

Either way I hope there’s more than the wing for him. The wing is a great start but it means he’s getting the ball on the boundary half the time and there’s only so much value to that. 

He is a centre man star in the waiting think Swan Warner! 

Langdon Windsor Sharp

Speed     Speed.    Speed 

and connectivity to forward line.

If he fills Hunter's spot, that's a fail. Hunter was disinterested this year.

I think he has more upside than ANB, who was inconsistent from year to year.

Not his last 5 years from the Flag on. 

Highlights seem to suggest there might be a handy contributor in there. Has the signature attacking mindset of the Brisbane side.

As an 19yr old I had a Datsun 1200 coupe that my brother in law had done up, that thing was so light and it flew. Loved it.

Except the talk is playing him high half forward

Sorry was talking about The Duke That’s why I included a potential centreline.

Shouldn’t have switched  players in a topic, but I understand Sharp could well be a high half forward ostensibly replacing ANB. 

Who will play on the other wing then?

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
