Would love for you to give an example or two. I'll refrain from any wisecracks for the moment. Pretty hard though to see how you could classify Mora as a dumb footballer when he's spent 95% of his career on the injury list. I wouldn't say Clancee has a great football brain, but he's never struck me as a dummy either. Again, what examples can you give to show this? I'm thinking they'll be few and far between.Morabito is a dumb footballer, doesn't make him less of a future gun.... Footy smarts are important but for someone like morabito, you can wind him up and let him go!
I don't think clancew Pearce is a particularly smart footballer, ballantyne is clever with his skills but continually does stupid things....
High in footy iq for freo would be johnson and walters...

Sorry to intrude guys. Came across this thread and seen Grant Weeks being talked about. I'm from bendigo way in Vic. Weeks spent a lot of time with Golden Square in the BFl. The guy is a freak! At 25 I doubt he would take up a contract. He gets paid crazy amounts of money in the bush. Think GWS offered him a deal when they started and he wasn't interested. He is a really laid back guy that runs a farm. Heard some awesome story's about him. No gym work, no fitness work. Just rocks up to training and is the fittest bloke running around. From all reports during footy season (harvest season) he sits on a tractor and smokes a pack a day haha
haha, that could mean that the guys on his team are really, really unfitSorry to intrude guys. Came across this thread and seen Grant Weeks being talked about. I'm from bendigo way in Vic.

Fringe players don't play 21 games.I agree that Robinson is better than Suban, but Suban's a fringe player, we don't need to increase our depth, we need to improve our best 22.
They do when players in the best 22 are injured.Fringe players don't play 21 games.
I wonder if BeinPurplenGreen is going to tell people off for saying Suban is s**t.
Maybe but I like to think a positive role model is somebody who hasn't gone to jail.
Yeah a role model for people who have gone to jail and as far as I know Simpson has not gone to jail so that kind of role model is not what he'd be looking for.Gaol does not have to be his defining moment, if he has used it to motivate him to work through it and be a better person ....he might just be a bloody good role model for everyone.
Great call if nothing else it will improve the Peel side in the short term, which in my view is very important to retaining and developing the younger players.I just watched the highlight package of Mathew Panos on afl.com.au. Id love for us to rookie list him if possible. He seems to have terrific skills and running ability. He played onball for the majority of last year, but I could see us developing him a replacement for the plus 1 defensive role that Johno plays. Either that, or he plays as another massive onballer that would provide greater flexibility with where we play Mundy and Fyfe. I think he could be the Barlow like selection of the 2014 draft.
Im hoping we draft Panos and Hamling as our selection in the rookie draft.
One guy I liked the look of (I'm not sure if he's rookie list or not) was Nick Rodda from West Perth. He impressed me whenever I saw him play.
Rodda was one that trained with us the same time we had Taberner, Howson etc.One guy I liked the look of (I'm not sure if he's rookie list or not) was Nick Rodda from West Perth. He impressed me whenever I saw him play.

Delisted himself because of some mental issues from memory.
He kicked a few against WP and looked great. Against Swans had his butt kicked by Tallen Ames and watchers called him lazy. Now we know why. Did well to make it as far as he did battling CFS.
