    Shock Tracker results: Your speed machines, endurance beasts

    Shock Tracker results: Your speed machines, endurance beasts

    WHO IS your club's fastest player? Who is your best gut runner? And how does your team compare to the other 17?

    Thanks to Champion Data and the Telstra Tracker, AFL.com.au has compiled the key numbers.

    Some of the results may surprise you...

    WESTERN BULLDOGS

    TELSTRA TRACKER TEAM RECORDS
    Season records
    Total distance covered for season 2019: 3955.1km (8th)
    Total distance at high speed for 2019: 533.7km (9th)
    Total sprints for season 2019: 3038 (15th)

    Single-match records
    Total distance single-match record for each club: 296.4km v Carlton, round 13
    Total distance at high speed single-match record: 46.3km v Richmond, round seven
    Total sprints single-match record: 288 v Collingwood, round 14

    Summary: Two of the Bulldogs' three records resulted in wins, the other a gutsy loss to the Pies. The total distance at high speed and sprints both occurred post-bye, which might point to the benefit of the week off. All three games were at Marvel Stadium in dry conditions under the roof. - Paul Bastin

    TELSTRA TRACKER PLAYER RECORDS
    Distance kings – average distance covered per match (minimum of two matches in 2019)
    Elite runners and consistent ball winners, it's no coincidence. Lipinski has had a significant impact since being selected in the senior side the past five games.

    1. Lachie Hunter: 14.46km per match
    2. Patrick Lipinski: 14.17km per match
    3. Marcus Bontempelli: 13.97km per match

    Distance kings – single-match records for 2019
    All three of Hunter, Bontempelli and Lipinski clocked over 15km first-up after the bye in a dramatic win over the Blues. The game went down to the wire and evidently demanded power running until the very last moments.

    1. Lachie Hunter: 15.86km v Carlton, round 13
    2. Marcus Bontempelli: 15.70km v Carlton, round 13
    3. Patrick Lipinski: 15.37km v Carlton, round 13

    Speedsters – highest speeds recorded in 2019
    As one of only two players across the competition to top 36km/h, Johannisen has been the second-fastest man in the AFL during the 2019 season. Defender Crozier is perhaps a slight surprise, ahead of Richards who is more renowned for his pace.

    1. Jason Johannisen: 36.40km/h v Carlton, round 13
    2. Hayden Crozier: 34.56km/h v Brisbane, round eight
    3. Jason Johannisen: 34.02km/h v Fremantle, round six

    Defender Crozier is perhaps a slight surprise, ahead of Richards who is more renowned for his pace.
    Richards needs to learn to use his pace more and when Bailey Smith realises he is fast, watch out.
