    The Campbell Brown King Hit medal.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

              It is the Brad Johnson goal-kicking test if that sounds better?

              The tests are named after the AIS mentors who put them together.
              What should I tell her? She's going to ask.

                    HTML Code:
                    [B][/B]13. Zaine Cordy (Geelong Falcons) 191 cm 75 kg[B][/B]
                    Cordy is eligible to go to the Bulldogs as a father-son selection, much like his brother Ayce. He’s not so impressive statistically, but he’s shown some good signs so far throughout the year. In the two times he was named in the bests, Cordy didn’t have more than 11 touches in either game, so it’s more about how damaging he is. Cordy is a lanky swingman who goes between half forward and half back. Once he develops he could be an effective marking option around the ground. He’s more of a tall flanker than an under sized key position player at this stage. Cordy is a solid tackler, racking up six against Gippsland Power. He did not get the opportunity to play for Vic Country this year.
                    
                    Zaine Cordy 2013 TAC Cup statistics
                    Matches: 6
                    Average kicks: 5.7
                    Average handballs: 4.2
                    Disposal efficiency: 69%
                    Average marks: 2.7
                    Average uncontested marks: 2.3
                    Average handball receives: 2.7
                    Average tackles: 2.7
                    Average goals: 0
                    I get the feeling with Zaine that he will be a bit of a sleeper, not unlike Hunter. I would be surprised if we were forced to use a 1st rounder on him. Interesting that there is no mention of young Wallis

                      Hi FrediKanoute,

                      In your opinion s Zaine considerably better than Ayce? What kind of position do you think he'd play in?

                      As with many WOOF posters I'd love to be wrong about Ayce however on current progress (and yes I know talls take longer) I wonder if the Club would have taken Aysce given what we have seen to date...
                      Josie :)

                      Our day will come
                      And we'll have everything.
                      We'll share the joy
                      Just like '54 again.

                        Is Jayden Foster still eligible to play under 18's?
                        Heard someone from Calder talking him up the other night.

                          Like it KT. Second in that category could get the Brad Wira squirrel grip award

                            Each TAC side can play a couple of 19yo. I'm not sure if Calder are doing so but I think we were hopeful.

                              Early days but IMHO possible draft picks from Glenelg at this stage (in my order)

                              Billy Stretch (AIS) Almost certain Father/Son to Melbourne. Athletic, Silky Skills, but very slight

                              Alex Neal-Bullen More of a bustling player, loves to "crack in" , was SA u16 skipper a few years ago, last few years ruined by injuries but going really well now

                              Cory Gregson Small forward, excitement machine. Love watching him play. Also a bit slight. Compare to Ben Kennedy.

                              Maybe Jake Pitt. Overlooked last year as presumably too skinny, has bulked up a little but showing great form, now playing both ends of ground . Compare to Andrejs EVerett

                              Roughy: Josh Miller Young ruckman overlooked last year, great at tapping and SLOWLY getting there
