that we didn't have only two years ago....


It certainly isn't like it used to be, where you'd go to round one looking to see how that one new bloke would go...


Now all I do all day is say "who IS that bloke?" and reach for the record!

Just to list the eighteen year olds next year....

Tambling, Gilmour, Jackson, Archibald, Limbach, Meyer, Pattison, Polo, Raines, Roach.

I can't figure out how many of these will play, or who of the 17 year olds may play a game or three around their schooling, but it will be a lot of new faces.

How much better do those names roll off the tongue instead of likes of Houlihan , Nichols , Marsh , Fletcher , Blumfield etc .

Will be interesting to see how Jackson goes next year.

With his schooling now behind him, he can finally focus on his footy.

Suffered from a bit of over-hyping when he debuted but thankfully that has died down in the midst of our new draftees.

Players like Jackson, Archibald, Raines and Gilmour would of had a bit of weight and expectations removed from their shoulders with the influx of a heep of "highly rated" youngsters.
 
look 4ward to 05.
