I would even say Max King too. From all accounts he’s been amazing with his shoulder prep and has been coming in most days in the preseason to work on it. He’s going to kick a bag.

While I appreciate the coverage of the session and the reports of our forumites, it seems peculiar that times have not been posted by the club. Without the times, some of the relevance is lost.

Did anyone post a PB? How did the groups' performance compare to last year's players at the same stage of pre-season?

I know the 3KTT wasn't part of it last year, but meaningful conclusions can still be drawn. Wilson was the winner, but what was his time? What if he ran a slowish time and the rest of the group was worse?

Someone out there knows particularly the coaching and high-performance staff. If they published the times, we would have a better idea of where the group is at. If they have been published somewhere, please direct me to it, and ignore this post. Cheers.
Nicky boy. You sound like you really want to know the times hey!

I wouldn’t stress because it was ran on grass on a very hot day. It’s day one anyway. You look at the next time trial and see if there is improvements and PBs at that one.

Thank you to TheGreatZacsby. Having read his post, I respectfully withdraw my disappointment and eagerly await the results of the track run TTs.

Clubs will not release times they will only release positions. Times are treated as confidential info not to be shared

The Sandy kid that Wilson beat actually won the draft combine 2K race beating Wilson 5:52 and the ruckman that went to GC 5:56

So Darcy got one back on him!

If time trials were a good predictor of football ability, he'd be on an AFL list and not scratching around at Sandy.
