Is it just me or does his disposal look a bit shoddy in general?

PartoSo, what the nickname? Phartingtonne?! Too easy?
Maybe Greg Chappel or Jaques Kallis or Aravinda De Silva or Mohammed Azharuddin? All blokes who scored a parting ton to finish their test careers.

braun was an outside mid tho and neale is an extractor.
Yeah both are consistent 4th - 5th best guys who compliment the more talented midfielders is more what I meant. When your guns are being tagged or having bad days these guys can step up and still give you a very good contest and then also have that odd 3 vote game.
I recon that's still underselling Neale a little. I reocn he's almost freo's second best mid after Fyfe, with only maybe Mundy edging him out. If Parto gets to Neale's level we will have done very well with pick 28.
Not to take over this thread but;
Fyfe, Mundy are clearly better, Hill third, Neale 4th this year.
Bennell slots into top 3 next year also.
Yeah as much as I don't like to admit it they do have the best midfield in the league. Sandi+Fyfe+Mundy+Hill+Bennell+Neale+Barlow = not many weaknesses. But not exactly much else beyond that and therefore carry the team. Much prefer our fully balanced strong list across the ground. Hopefully the next derby will be a cracker and less one sided than the two in 2015.Not to take over this thread but;

Can foresee a fairly swift demise from Barlow, Sandi and Mundy though.
But they have Blakely, Weller, Sheridan and their new draftees waiting.
One advantage of consistently drafting midfielders at the expense of KPP, i guess.
Given Karps is our only other back up as a forward pocket after letting Newman go, I reckon Partington will be played in the forward pocket for his first few years at AFL level (eventually moving into the midfield).
Partington has got the pace, agility, inside ability to win his own ball in congestion, snag a few goals and put on some manic pressure with his repeat sprints and strong endurance.
Once he is fit, Cavka could be a chance as a forward as well I reckon. Jetta and Yeo could also be used forward.Given Karps is our only other back up as a forward pocket after letting Newman go, I reckon Partington will be played in the forward pocket for his first few years at AFL level (eventually moving into the midfield).

Bit likd shuey did but im not sure if his goal sense is as good as shueys.I agree with that, he is more suited to playing higher HF but I think forward line will Definately be where Parto will begin his career.

Tho its seems like most young mids for us lately have started off there with Duggan and sheed to most recent ones. Only young mid that didnt start on HF was Gaff.

His nickname was Parto at Norwood. Personally I like "Parts".
