Under a new rule, that would allow Collingwood to automatically pre-list him before the rookie draft on November 27.
JOSH Kelly has won the final event at this year's NAB AFL Draft Combine, running the second-fastest three-kilometre time trial in the testing's 20-year history.
Kelly won the run last year when competing for a place in the Greater Western Sydney mini-draft, and backed up just over a month before this year’s draft, completeing the run in nine minutes and 32 seconds.
The best time in combine testing is nine minutes and 30 seconds, by former Port Adelaide rookie Tom Rieschbieth in 2005.
The 18-year-old Kelly surpassed his time of last year by 16 seconds, and again underlined himself as an early pick on November 21 when the draft takes place at the Gold Coast.
"I had the advantage of a few weeks of training under my belt and I was hoping to get a bit of a PB (personal best)," Kelly said after the run.
"I'm pretty happy with it. It's a good way to end the camp, it's been a lot of fun this week."
Elite endurance obviously, look out NvB he's after your crown...

That's a different player.
Edit: having said that JAKE kelly came third in that run!
I seen Craig play some bloody good footy for the Redlegs before he went to Victoria. One of the more influential player/sports managers going around, hope he's got a readymade ruckman on his books for next year.Hope he's not like his dad, one of the most annoying and try hard players in VFL/AFL history.
Yeah, nah. He is 10 deep with our current backline talent. Back flankers are a dime a dozen. Darcy H should be here.

Were you watching the right bloke? Craig Kelly was a hard at it bloody good footballer. Jake has a good pedigree.
All i remember of Craig Kelly is a seriously tough guy who whined incessantly and got a mysterious niggle every time State Of Origin duty called.
