Do they have a test for football skill and ability to be able to read the play?

Nathan Buckley has developed a test involving kicking a football does that count?

Not sure but its good to hear a football is involved in one of the exercises!

I would think the recruiting teams from each AFL club would already have taken the time to see these guys play during the year, that's how they get invited to the camp. These tests are similar to all the tests each AFL club does during the pre-season ( time trials,body fat %,agility ) so the data from here, coupled with the time already spent watching the kids play in 09 ensure the recruiting teams are better informed.

It's not rocket science.

Good call!

and with a 3km time like that, maybe originally from Kenya?

I wonder how Diesel Williams and Leigh Matthews would have fared in those Draft Camps?

Probably would have been told they would never make it as 'footballers'.

I'd imagine Matthews would wait until all the other players weren't looking then king hit them.

Yes i'm a Hawthorn supporter but i call a spade a spade.

as the saying goes...............

"they used to recruit footballers and try turn them into athletes. Now they recruit athletes and try turn them into footballers"

Considering Diesel was sent packing from Carlton 3 times before Geelong grabbed him, probably the same....
