True but I like Sherro running off half back and wing. Weller will be more of a mid or wing.

I hope he won't be a flight risk... Had dreams of playing with his brother side by side.
Maybe we'll trade him for... mcCartin?

His brother is a discard, in a couple of years when the Saints youngsters come through he'll be first out and could even end up in the West

In the same 'draft days' interview he also noted that realistically he would be playing against his brother and that he was looking forward to playing against him. Has no go home factor and I assume a player like brad hill would have wanted to play with stephen, but look what happened there?
No concern about Weller what so ever.

Definitely different type of player to his brother. Looks like a Rolls Royce of a unit.
These were my thoughts. Hopefully he's able to display a little more early on than Shero though.

Glad we finally got the CHB we needed ...welcome Jay - just hope a Weller doesn't come on and make us look silly.
Wow great insight into him. Sounds like he's ready to go round 1 with all the development he has had with gc academy.

He idolises Fyfe and expected to move states.

Welcome to the club and good luck to him. He wears purple now so he has become one of our own.
For our informed footy department to pick him first they must have seen something. I will back them in.

Over on the Saints board they seem pretty sure that he will request a trade to them in two years time

Were they hanging out for him

He's got a bit of a 50's greaser look about him, doesn't he.
That's it. All he needs is a Cooky Jacket.
Don't reckon Shero will get there TBH. But I've been wrong once or twice before.

Wouldnt it be a site to see seeing the 2 brothers go head 2 head next year
His brother Maverick (what sort of name is that?) was a similar build to Lachlan when drafted - now he looks like the veritable brick sh1thouse. Young Lachie could end up becoming a pretty solid unit, as well as a skillful player.
Notwithstanding a bit of disappointment about not getting a CHB, this guy looks pretty impressive.

It would be an understatement to say he was probably the one player we were hoping to slide to 21 (excluding the obvious top 5-10).
Obviously cos he's silky and a gun, but having two brothers in the same team would be pretty neat as well.
Realised it was pretty unlikely though. Good luck to him, definitely someone I'll keep an eye out for when Freo plays.
Well that's one time this year we haven't lost to St.kilda.
That link is quite an interesting read for anyone bothered. Four parts spread over a few months. Thanks for posting.
Very happy to get someone with speed who can kick, but I can't help but wonder how things would have been if Simpson had worked out
