We might be going Irish

[cj_09]

for anyone that doesn't follow 20m sprint times.. that's lightning, top5 in the afl right now and top 10 ever tested

Sign him up, get him on the books, don't wait. Then kenny and the team can work their magic with him.

 

[Schulzenfest]

Tadhg Kennelly, Pearce Hanley, Zach Tuohy ... Daniel Flynn?

This guy sounds like a great prospect if our new Academy can implant a football brain into him. Git 'ur dun, pr0t.

"I had a look around Adelaide and met a couple of the boys," said Flynn, who turned 20 last week.

"It's a lot calmer than Melbourne. It's a bit more laid-back. I enjoy it."

THIS MUST HAPPEN

 

[kaysee]

If we sign him up can we make a push to use the "Fighting Irish" theme song???



As an international marketing initiative of course

 

[Oliver King]

Call him Walt Jr.

 

[PatientMental]

Marsh got 2.78
Freeman got 2.81
Flynn got 2.83
So according to the past results, He's as fast as Brennan and Krakouer (who were fastest in their own years.)

im keen on this, if St Kilda can sign an International today why cant we? i dont get it?

Just to put that in some perspective with the world's fastest 100m runners in history who hit peak speed around the 60m mark and are able to stay close to that speed for the last 40m

Plenty of guys would have beaten Bolt over 20m

Two From Michael Ablett's twitter
"Irishman Daniel Flynn now challenging on the 20m Sprint with a blistering 2.89 secs first up!"
"Better make that a 2.83 for Daniel Flynn from Ireland, wow !!"

Everyone gets 2 runs

He's done it again in the repeat sprints. Who is Nathan Freeman? He was 2nd fastest in the 20m sprints.

29m​

Daniel Flynn of Ireland caps an awesome day of power performance with a 24.25 in the Repeat Sprints!!!


michael ablett ‏@michaelablett23

20m​

Nathan Freeman of Sandy Dragons wow !!!! 23.62 !!!!! Now top 10 all time in 20m Sprint and 30m Repeat Sprints !!!

 

[Zakk Wylde]

Freeman should go in the 8-20 range REH... Explosive midfielder, but doesn't rack up the numbers.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

So Freeman with pick 13 and Flynn for nothing to go with Mitchell and Neade would makes us a side with genuine pace.

Will definitely be around our pick... How was Bontempelli's numbers ??

Or even Marsh instead of Freeman.

 

[philthy05]

is the kid still just 18?

good to get them young. he looks a strong wiry type as well , big for an 18 yr old and well suited to footy and particularly the shape burgess has been molding our players into.

hopefully he impressed the club and has something in him.

 

[philthy05]

yes adding matty white , maybe polec , in-like-flynn and a speedster in the draft would add some huge speed to our side.

I've got odds of $1.20 that Flynn will be TSW's buddy next year.

 

[Dobie G]

From the Irish paper, looks like it's all happening

Flynn to sign for Port Adelaide

The 19 year old Johnstownbridge man played a key role in St Mary's, Edenderry's All-Ireland Colleges success last year and broke into the Lilywhites' senior side this year.

He impressed Tadhg Kennelly at a camp in Ireland last March and played for the European Legion against the AIS-AFL Academy team in Surrey the following month.
