I was watching English last night thinking "This guy used to be worse than CCJ".It’s funny how we write kids off so early, especially tall kids:
Callum Coleman-Jones and Max Gawn AFL Stats Comparison
Callum Coleman-Jones and Max Gawn AFL Stats Comparison.www.footywire.com
Yeah the fact that he's younger than Larkey, Zurhaar, Simpkin etc should be taken into consideration when looking at where he's at. I think he'll be fine. Not sure if the comparison to Max Gawn is a sensible one though
He's literally played 16 games at AFL level in the positions that take the longest time for a player to find his feet. In those 16 games he's has a game where he kicked 4 goals, a game where he had 18 disposals and a game where he took 7 marks. Without looking, there wouldn't be many 200cm+ players in the history of the game that have done more in 16 games.Wasn’t flash was he .
Not sure what we were thinking.
He’s ours and let’s hope he comes good.
Oh well

I'm not sure if you were expecting him to hit the ground running and be an AA ruck this year, but he is going to take time and he is certainly our best long-term ruck prospect.
Agree he has the size but what he hasn't had is continuity at the top level. I'd like to come back to this in 12 months or so and hopefully by then he has had an extended run at it which allows him to not only get some confidence but a better understanding of what he has to do at the AFL level. He's been able to show that improvement at VFL this year.A lot of what you state is true he is also in his fifth season and a lot of those big guys have issues with weight, lack thereof. He doesn't have that.
His 8 games with Richmond last season were better than his 7 with us to date. I would like him to impact more contests and to start throwing his weight around a bit.
The word was he's an aggressive mobile big fella, jumping in a ruck contest would be a great start. I don't think we've seen that to date. Of course he has time and he is ahead of Xerri.
I don't care for AA's, but I do care for the basics.
You were a big fan of majak, was 7 or 8 years before he produced anything that resembled reasonable standard senior footy. Give him some time, he wasn't recruited for this yearA lot of what you state is true he is also in his fifth season and a lot of those big guys have issues with weight, lack thereof.

Gees the conditions in Hobart weren’t ideal for him. He and Spicer really struggled. Hopefully he comes back into form on Sunday. Charlie’s fit again too.

Seems hes the only one whose well enough to play.CJ’s out with covid isn’t he?
It still annoys me today that people go on and on about our legends being cut at the end of 2016 - my biggest issue with that year is that Maj was clearly ready to go and able to deliver more for much of the year but didn't get a look in until basically that Adelaide final, and largely because we'd already conceded the loss, then went out and was BOG for us. What a waste and it's not like we were firing in the back half of the year...Oh low blow man, Maj should have played a lot more and a lot more often. He was doing well and would be omitted.
Very hard to have any sort of career playing seniors every six weeks.
But on CCJ, I didn't say drop him, also not sure he'll be playing this week as he didn't train.
Majak was producing a lot of hints in the VFL, AFL preseason games and in his rare senior opportunities to suggest he'd have been better off getting more senior games earlier to consolidate his development.You were a big fan of majak, was 7 or 8 years before he produced anything that resembled reasonable standard senior footy.

CCJ's level of talent is lower IMO but get your point re players taking time.
We're all armchair critics on here but I contend Daw should've got some blooding games circa 2011-12 and then been essentially given a run of games 2013-15 to develop into the long term gun I think he could've been.Of course it's lower
i used to go to games, the the oppo team would kick a high ball into our d50, i'd just say, Maj has got this and there he was almost every time.
was in AA form down back.
I reckon Drews first 15-30 game very uninspiring. The just clicked for Him.We're all armchair critics on here but I contend Daw should've got some blooding games circa 2011-12 and then been essentially given a run of games 2013-15 to develop into the long term gun I think he could've been.
I know he was more advanced per age because of having an AFL background but Drew is someone who had more than 1 year getting games under his belt until eventually flourishing into a consistent gun.
We'll never know.
I remember him playing really well early at one stage, he gave Danny Jacobs a bath who was rated back then.I reckon Drews first 15-30 game very uninspiring. The just clicked for Him.
The comparison is a good one because people wrote Gawn off at a similar age. Similar with English.
Will CCJ end up anywhere near Gawn, probably not but writing him off already is just silly.
