      It's not all laps, they'll probably do some sprints too

      Which reminds me, I've mentioned it in the past I'm sure but is anyone up for getting a folding chair, an esky (and maybe a large brolly to sit under) and going and watching the ultimate running man thingy day whilst drinking beer?
      I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
      We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

        Hehehehe, between the mention of Davo and the picture of Mike's guns I'm as giddy as a mid 20s secretary at about 4:30 this afternoon.

          He certainly has a good set that boy. Look forward to comparing his with Bradshaws who, in my opinion, has the best set of cannons in the league!

            Stick to Davo Lucky. I don't think Pyke would be able to handle you.

                True. But what he lacks in experience, he makes up for in enthusiasm.....

                  Is Adam Goodes the most touchy-feely man alive? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

                    "This time, midfielder Ed Barlow led the pack from start to finish, completing the course in just under 10 minutes."..............geese I hope that is the 3km course cause he is killing it for his first run !!

                    Primmy if RLT cn be made into a Senior player.........Barlow can be an integral player in Senior footy !!
                    Umm. This is training. Its not an AFL game. Ed has always been able to run...

                      Stella, I am with you there. Bona Finde Eye Candy Arms! And chocolate on top when teamed with Braddles. Oh, this is going to be a good year for those of us with binoculars and a glad heart.

                        just like pyke and RLT being developed as Key Pos players due to height and enough athletic ability ............we will develop Barlow and he will be a star !!!

                          Auntie, if you're going to bag LRT, at least get his ID straight! Or better still, pick on someone who deserves it. And I'm pleased it won't be Barlow.
                          He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

                              Oh my. You'll have all of us of a female persuasion all a flutter with those photos.

                              And that Mumford chap certainly is a big lad.

                              (I think the photographer needs a wee Sydney geography lesson, mind. Those pictures are clearly taken in the parklands out at the front of the SCG - which isn't exactly Clovelly!)
