I got to use latte and alliteration in the title. That's my work done!

Pretty good write up for Tommy too, specifically referring to his ability to play AFL.

R18 SANFL wrap-up – Logan hits his straps
11:34 AM Tue 7 August, 2007 | Back

With Darren Trevena

Tom Logan (Glenelg)
Kicks 16 / Marks 7 / Handballs 8 / Goals 2 / Tackles 0


Tom Logan was upgraded from last years rookie list and played the first four AFL matches of Season 2007.

In Round 4 of SANFL action, Logan copped an ankle injury that proved to be quite persistent. Struggling to overcome the injury hampered his bid to move back into the Power’s AFL side but he has now strung four games together for Glenelg and this weeks effort was his standout match for the year.

Power Development Coach, Darren Trevena was particularly impressed and named Logan the Cibo Glenelg SANFL Power Player of the Week.

“Tom was excellent. His work rate is unbelievable. He just works so hard but he probably doesn’t get rewarded until the last quarter when everyone else starts to die off and his team mates find him more,” Trevena said.

“He got Glenelg back in the game with his goal straight after the first bounce in the last quarter.”

Trevena also told PortAdelaideFC.com.au that he was confident in Logan’s ability in the big time.

“He can play at that next level now he’s getting back to where he wants to be (with his form). Tom’s a guy that works both in attack and defence and although he had around 24 touches (this week), at AFL level he may have had more than 30 touches as his team mates would have used him more.”

With the Port Magpies battling Glenelg for a finals spot, this week is a good time :D

Thanks FF. I was thinking Logan was headed for delisting with the fact that he has been in the system a few years and has not consolidated his spot. It seems that he has a bit of the Shattocks about him.

I thought Boak and Thomson had moved ahead (?Bentley and Batsanis also) and his days were numbered. This gets back to the 'who do we delist' thread but I figure there is time for that later.

Good luck to him, needs 1 more chance.

No way Batsanis is ahead of him. Logan will definatly be a decent back - up player.

Tommy Logan reminds me of Jared Poulton
solid hard player without being a star or flashy
someone you could rely on as a good backup player who will always give his all but never be good enough to dominate
