Next Generation CERTAIN long term players
- Coughlan-Agreed
- Fiora-Highly doubtful unless TW can bring the best out of him next year[if he,s not traded
- Newman-Agreed
- Pettifer-Possible alls not lost yet
- Zantuck-Doubtful

Probables YET to prove they are long term players
- Hartigan-Early signs are good
- Jackson-i have no doubt this kid will make it
- Krakouer-With his dad out an improved krakour maybe around the corner
- Roach-Wait 12 mnths
- Rodan-Hardest of the bunch.wait and see
- Schulz-shown some signs.needs to get away from richo

Possibles LONG way to establish themselves
- Dragga-Sad to say but dragga will be delisted.
- Gilmour-Has shown glimpes.but is the youngest on our list.
- Hyde-Our improved player this year.work ethic cant be questioned.
- Moore-Wrong Healy.this kid will make it.
- Morrison-At the crossroads to say the least
- Nicholls-Bye Bye
- Raines-Agreed.but has made huge inroads in 2nd half of the year
- Tuck -Has the skill.attitude is questionable
- Weller-Agreed

must disagree with the great man, no way for fiora and pettifer, maybe too much surfing by the boy from aspendale

I never realised how little Gerard Healy knew until reading that article.

I think the ultimate aim of it was to somehow show why Wallace and Eade chose Richmond and Bulldogs over hawthorn. Instead, he showed his ignorance.

Exactly what Fiora, Pettifer and Zantuck have done to suggest long careers is beyond me. Ditto several of the listed Bulldogs players and Campbell Brown from Hawthorn.

How he rates some of those spuds ahead of Chance Bateman is beyond me. Campbell Brown is a battler at best.

most of it is true but i think Fiora is yet to prove himself and Krakouer has shown enough
