According to the tracker, Menzel is quick. Against Geelong, he had the second fastest top speed, behind Ratogalea. While against West Coast, he was equal fastest on the field with Rampe. Which I found surprising, as he never really seems to be express. And as an aside, Rohan wasn't in the top five in the Geelong game.

Reckon he takes a while to hit top speed!
Though it could be the other way round. Like when Jetta and Rohan were both Swans, most people (including me) would have assumed, that one of them was the fastest at the club. But I remember reading that it was actually Goodes. This was because he had rapid acceleration, and hit a peak around 10-15 metres. However, being a bigger bodied athlete, he couldn't sustain it. So, beyond 20 metres, Rohan and Jetta were both quicker, but there was that brief peak, that meant Goodesy had the highest maximum speed.
So, maybe Menzel just has a brief sweet spot, that he can't keep up?
Hanners will debut for the Saints, it's going to weird watching him in a different guernsey.

As if we need reminding of what Ryan 'Fitzy' Fitzgerald does now but this is on the Swans website at the moment.....

Love Fitzy! Pity his footy career didn't take off.... he had some talent. He was funny as on Big Brother too.
