Not so sure about that
Nothing about Greg Williams physique was remotely special but fu**, could he play. Very special ability he developed probably because he wanted it so bad.
Yes, the hand eye co-ordination is of more importance that your physical look.I think people are under-estimating natural skill level IIT
Yes, a Jimmi Hendrix or Prince had the talent, passion and work ethic that 99% of people do not have. They were freak talents for a reason.Growing up an enthusiast guitarist, when reading about the "best" guitarists, their practice-regimes were always mind-blowing (8-9 hours a day). And it's not enough to just play, these guitarists were always pushing themselves to the limit learning stuff at the edge of their abilities. But with this said, these guitarists usually showed an abnormal "natural knack" for the instrument at an early age.
Our local umpires train at our ground. No doubt they do a lot of fitness and running which is great but they dont spend any time learning the rules or doing match simulation. Shits me to tears.
These lot don't go in the rooms. Get in their cars and go home.You do that in the rooms afterwards.
BTW...Just how do you expect umpires to do 'match simulation' on the ground?
These lot don't go in the rooms. Get in their cars and go home.
Have people act out footy situations e.g. marking contests, holding the ball decisions and have a senior umpire explain the correct decision. Getting positioning right so you are in the best spot to see push in the backs, throws etc.
Yeah what would AFL Vic knowWe used to train several nights a week, on one of those nights we'd have a meeting afterwards. So yeah, most of the time people did just jump in their car and drive home.
As for the 'match simulation'....LOL.
Please tell me you're not serious.
I played with Greg at Golden Square and one season we had 3k run and it was impossible for him to beat me over 3k. It was through the streets of Golden Square where he lived.I entered the home straight and the cheating mooger fooger was 200m in front.prick took short cuts. I guess guile springs to mind or raised on foxes milkNot so sure about that

Max Gawn is taller than literally 1 in 1000 male adults in Australia, yet you're calling him not remarkable in any physical aspect? Utterly bizarre post from you.There heaps of them around. Total myth that only physically gifted can make it at top level
Jeremy McGovern and Max Gawn are elite for their roles. Neither are remarkable in physical aspect. Just want it enough and play the game well enough to be one of best at it. Kane Lambert another example of never give up if you want it bad enough. Gibbons will be another at my club.

Trams in Golden Square?......I played with Greg at Golden Square and one season we had 3k run and it was impossible for him to beat me over 3k.

at the time no. But Greg as a 16yr in the seniors trained fooking 7 days a week and had serious mongrel in him even at a young age.He would belt someone in a pack and the big brother Johnny would step in as the enforcer.Trams in Golden Square?......
yes...lol..he is not the kind of physical statue for his height to be impressive.Max Gawn is taller than literally 1 in 1000 male adults in Australia
Sounds like the prick.at the time no. But Greg as a 16yr in the seniors trained fooking 7 days a week and had serious mongrel in him even at a young age.He would belt someone in a pack and the big brother Johnny would step in as the enforcer.
He is not really a prick in fact a seriously nice bloke who worked fooking hard to achieve what he didSounds like the prick.
Sounds like prick? nah that was Ricky Nixon , he was in the same team. Toot tootSounds like the prick.
A prick on the football field. To be sure...He is not really a prick in fact a seriously nice bloke who worked fooking hard to achieve what he did
No, Ricky Nixon would never have played with Diesel. We shipped him off to Saints asap...Sounds like prick? nah that was Ricky Nixon , he was in the same team. Toot toot
In Bendigo correctoh, I guess you meant up in Bendigo..
