I must have been standing next you as well. The one thing that stood out for me was how big he is, can only imagine him in 3 years time!

Yeah - The games I seen him play. That is Big for a 18 Year Old and you see him at VFL Level sometimes Power Thru Tackles

He's coming in next week for sure, I'd almost bet my life on it. There just isn't any other reasons left to leave him out. Welcome back to the Seniors JDG.
Looks like Sidey could be back in, who'd be in first if fit then possibly Seedsman and Ramsay. So they have to find 2-4 players to take out from last week to get De Goey in.
So who do we take out? I'd go with
In: Sidebottom, Seedsman, De Goey
Out: Witts, Armstrong, Dwyer

He is dominating against men NOW!

He reads the play very well for a kid his age.

Hence the word "could", didn't see Bucks mention this, was it on AFL360? I hate that show and try to avoid it, although I heard Bucks gave Robbo a right whack which would've been good to see.
Anyhoo hopefully De Goey should be in then.

Yeah I don't know about dominating. John McCarthy was bloody good at taking hangers at VFL level, had a strong body, was good in one-on-one contests and had a heap of pace, but he didn't win a lot of the ball and he turned it over by kicking over his targets' heads. I'm very happy with what De Goey has done so far, and it's a shame I didn't get to see his last week's effort when he kicked three goals, but he needs to do more with the ball when he gets it. In that game against the Cats there was plenty of footage of him throwing the ball on the boot while getting scragged, and turning the ball over in space when he had it.

The Replay of the Dogs game is still up on CTV IF you want to watch it mate.

De Goey is getting more and more of the Ball. Started in the High Teens and now is up in the High 20’s:thumbsu:

He has been in the bests in all reserves games so far.....against men!

At that age I think it is a fair effort.

The "throwing the ball on the boot" part I agree with.......but many times he is first to get it from the bounce so I guess he will learn to compose himself a bit better with time. Not sure if McCarthy is a good comparison. I did think McCarthy was a good-average player though.

This kid has got that intangible something about him. Just my opinion but he could be anything.

The Big Show's gotta wear 23 for mine, as someone who wears Rocca's number every week to the games.

You could get a new jumper... Pants would love the way this kid goes about his footy.

I think we should play him. We keep "saving" our players thinking that they will all be burnt out Josh Fraser style.

This will not happen as Fraser was the only viable alternative.

Play him now and don't make the same mistake we always seem to make and cast doubt into the Club, supporters and player's mind.
