If we had those attributes he'd be an AA standard key back.
The rumours about his off field issues must be really difficult.

The rumours about his off field issues must be really difficult.
Clearly he hasn't developed them consistently to the AFL level yet but he still has those ability which made him the best KPD of his draft year and in the first few games of 2020 we saw his one grab contested marking ability.
I think they are well documented.

Hamish just has to go, way too many misses with decent picks
His reading of the ball in the air today was woeful and then he is even worse when the ball hits the ground

I saw his stats and assumed he got injured. Embarrassing.
If Frampton continues his form for the rest of the year, surely we’ll look at trading him on.
Realistically what could we expect in return for him?

Not a lot of point trading him at this stage. We're not going to get anything in return. At this stage the best bet is to just let him play his contract out and hope for a miracle.

Yeah, he’s been much better lately without being a standout.
It’s not much, but his attitude seems to have improved and he doesn’t seem to be falling over as much.
Unfortunately still behind Murray, Borlase and Worrell though.
That's certainly been our policy with every other player

If Billy Framptons game on the weekend is a testimony for anything, it's that patience with young KPP's is critical. There's no secret formula for fast tracking them, or achieving success.
Some just take time.

Difference is Frampton was a young key position forward who wasn’t good enough to make it up forward, the switch to the easier position of defender has suited him.
McAsey is a defender struggling to be a defender.
Some also just don’t make it.

I thought there were some positive signs from Fish on Saturday. But boy is he glacial pace wise.

If he can play to the weekends level consistently for a month or so he'll be around the mark
Gotta see that before anything

Look don’t get me wrong, I’d be ecstatic if he makes it and has a huge career with us, just as I would be for any Crows player as I want to win flags.
But I’m just not seeing it in him. Let’s hope he does prove me wrong.

Probably the biggest disappointment so far this season.
Still has time to prove he is an AFL player, but the signs are worrying if he can't be dominant at sanfl level.

How many key Defenders are dominant at SANFL level just after turning 21? Dominant is a big ask for a KPP and a kid.

I didn't mean best in sanfl dominant... but he should be regularly in the best players.
Has he ever been in the best players?
Surely you would be expecting more from him...

How many years more do some want to give this kid? Thank god for Butts otherwise we’d be getting belted week in week out. It was an absolute cockup that we drafted this guy at pick 6, not the kids fault but the clubs fault.
