This is a pertinant point BC. You've outlined what I am dubbing 'Bailey's Dilemma'. Our problem is not just the amount of raw youngsters on our list but the amount of new players full stop. Without getting too worried about the extra rookies who are there more as an option than anything I still think Bailey's #1 problem is trying out all these new players whilst keeping the team on a forward course. We have some players in their early 20's who have yet to play a game. If it wasn't for senior injurys last year then we would even have some defenders with less games.Game he got last year was surely just token, but I'm hoping he'll be able to shake off those injuries this year and play at least half a dozen games. Strange as it may sound, I think his main worry will be finding a spot in the side, especially with Petterd back fit and firing and the likes of Buckley, Morton, Maric, Moloney all fighting for those last few spots in the middle of the park (assuming Junior, McLean, Jones, Green and Bruce were all instant conclusions).
Also read the book and everyone seemed very impressed with Jack all the way through. He comes out of it looking very good. Any indication of how many games he'll play this year? Will he be pushing for regular selection or does he need another year?Have just been reading the book by Emma Quayle (Age footy journo) called The Draft.
It basically follows for a year five draftees (Cyril Rioli, Ben McEvoy, Brad Ebert, Vespremi and Trent Cotchin) in the year leading up to getting drafted.
Jack gets mentioned a few times and every single mention is about what a gun he will be and what a fantastic young fella he is.
After his injury struggles in 08, I am bloody excited to see him in the red and blue next year.
Looking at your boy Jake Grimes for my supercoach team but dont no to much about him. Like if he is in your 22, a good prospect, good bad points any info would be great
Does anyone else think we should start drafting anybody with a first name of Jack?
