Well according to Malthouse Liam Jones is the most "Explosive Animal" he has ever seen on the training track
I heard they put him on the Bran and Prunes diet to up his explosiveness just a tad!

I dont want to get too political on you two but this is an urban myth. There is zero scientific evidence of the kind you're asserting (with reference to some kind of 'genetic' cause to the African running phenomenon). The 'fast twitch' muscle fibre theory is total bunkus too, thats been going around the traps for years. The scientific evidence in fact points overwhelmingly towards environmental factors being causative of African running dominance.
'Race' is a social construct and not a biological one for starters.
Aboriginal boys dont play a certain way because of 'genetics' any more than Greek boys do.
We have threads on this topic on the SRP boards; I suggest popping in there for a read.

Hey thylacine60, I watched a fair bit of him when he played for WA in both 2013 and 2014. He's at his best as a low possession, high impact midfielder. Never did much as a small forward when I watched him. Has one of the best bursts of speed off the mark that I've seen in a footy player. I'd like to see him running off half back at some stage. Can kick some horrid shanks but can hit some beautiful passes when he's out in the open. Has a similar game to Dylan Buckley IMO.any thoughts on his actual footballing ability? anyone? anyone at all?
