A lock surely.What. A. Game.
That was a performance that SCREAMS future captain. A genuine chance for AA this year surely?
Sealed up his spot on the wing today.A lock surely.
A lock surely.
Ok. POTYWalking, talking, living, breathing hoochie mama
Holy s**t if this guy adds goal kicking to his bag look da **** out
Merrett, Heppell, Zaharakis and Parish have all hit the scoreboard regularly in the second half of the season. Our contested possession and clearance differential have improved significantly but we still need an inside mid or two to complete our midfield.Our midfield is missing two things imo:
1. Inside mids
2. Goal kicking
Merrett and Heppell have both taken steps this year to address #2. Lets hope that keeps improving

I think a better comparison is Adelaide. Both of our forward 6 have kicked the most goals out of any team. I think we may have even kicked more than them.Just had a look at the stats, since the bye:
(17 goals ~ 10 games - 1.7 goals per game)
- Parish has kicked 3 in 9 games
- Zaka has kicked 6 in in 10 games
- Merrett has kicked 6 in 9 games (with 4 from the last round)
- Heppell has kicked 4 in 10 games
Zaka and Heppells I guess I remember more because they were key in winning games - but really none of those are good enough to consider that hitting the scoreboard often enough, more improvement required if our team wants to progress.
Compare that to say Richmond:
- Dusty has kicked 16 in 11 games (as much as Merrett Zaka and Heppell combined)
- Cotch has kicked 8 in 11 games (still more then any midfielder of ours)
- Grigg has kicked 5 from 11 games
- Prestia has kicked 4 from 10 games
(33 goals ~ 11 games - 3 goals per game)

The huge difference is our midfield compared to theirs.
Thats not a fair comparison. Both martin and cotchin spend fair chunks of the game playinf out of the goal square.Just had a look at the stats, since the bye:

I would love for him to make the AA team. He was stiff last year to not make the top 40 (much like Oliver this year)
