It seemed to me like every time we needed a bloke to put together two or three solid weeks in the VFL to get some touch and match fitness we'd have another bloody bye.
You'd be a bit miffed. But Jeka's ceiling is quite a bit higher than those guys. It just depends on if he gets his head right. Speculative rookie picks like Jeka are a bit like buying a lotto ticket. Odds are you won't win, but if you do the payoff is immense.
I'm really liking what Close brings to the team.
Watch the last quarter here: Geelong goals v Port, R13 2021
He was involved in almost all our goals in the last 1/4. Such quick hands and instinctive knowledge of where his teammates are. You can't teach that.
Good! He seems to be a bit less spindly than he was at the start of the year and looks as though he's moving well. He moves smooth for a big guy as well, I just hope he doesn't become too casual.
Re: 2010 Rookie Draft selection no. 40
Hope the kid has pace and good disposal, because he certainly hasn't got height or bulk. Maybe one of the perks is some inside goss on what teh Sainters are doing.
Re: 2010 Rookie Draft selection no. 23 - Joshua Walker
I reckon players turn out 5% better if drafted by the club they supported as a kid than if someone else gets them. So yay.
Re: 2010 National Draft selection no. 54 - Jordan Schroder
How many picks do we have in the rookie and pre-season drafts? If we're short of talls now, are there any prospects we can pick up then?
Re: Joel Corey...
He gets a lot of the ball from clearances, which means he's often under pressure when he gets rid of it. That doesn't excuse his poor delivery, but it is a contributing factor.
