My daughter had a Frog in the Pond for dessert at the pub the other night that was harder than Ryan Lonie.

In July he accumulated a whopping 44 possessions against the Calder Cannons, while also laying nine tackles and kicking two goals in a losing side.

That is 1 hell of a Game

Just beat the previously undefeated Steele Sidebottom in the 2km time-trial.

Just saw this on the pies site. Incredible effort first up.
Great to see Sidey embrace his performance and congratulate the kid as well.

Good work from the young man! His first official day of training too ~ despite his age, his fitness and running ability is obviously NOT gonna be a hindrance to him breaking in to the team.

Running unimpeded is a bit different to repeat efforts after having grown men smash into you for 120 minutes. But yes, being aerobically fit from the get-go makes the transition to senior football easier.

Yeah, for sure. Physically, he will still have to adjust to the rigours of AFL standard footy, and being able to keep it up for a full game. Having a tank big enough to beat Sidey in a 2k run, even if the latter was possibly having an off day, shows that he has a really strong base to build on though. For me, i think it's a sign he will certainly be in contention for game time next year.

Reminds me of Didak, maybe it's just that penetrating left foot.
