You want us to draft a CHF that isnt WAFL standard to go with a FF that isnt WAFL standard?

Instead of a lumbering giant I would rather someone like Black, Carlilse, Griffiths or Houghton.

And I don't know why you are bagging Sibo, had an injury-interrupted season while showing good signs.....

...just remind me what those good signs were can you?

He struggled big time.

Geee...give the kid a break!
Only his first year on a rookie list!...Hopefully next year he'll do alot more better

Just stating the facts that's all. I hope he does improve next year, but he struggled big time so there's no need for people to make shit up and say he showed good signs cause he didn't.

Yeah he didn't set the world on fire bu he did progress from ressies to league but then got injured mid year. Apparently he tried to fight through it for a while but had to call it a season after a few league games. I dont think we can judge the guy harshly due to injury so lets give him a bit of a chance hey. We really need him to develop.

Just a few quotes from another thread....

Yep today could have been the big bag he needed to finally crack a spot in the seniors.

R9 Ressies:

21 disposals - 13 kicks, 8 handballs, 7 marks and 6 goals 1.

Ressies season average:

14 disposals - 9 kicks, 5 handballs, 4.1 marks, 2.1 goals.

Goals: 17 (8 games)

and...

Well we all knew Sibo deserved to be in the seniors and he proved us right with a pretty good debut.

R10

18 disposals - 8 kicks, 10 handballs, 3 marks and 1 goal.

Tbh, 18 touches on debut isnt exactly what i would call "struggled big time". From memory, i think he might also have had an interrupted pre season. Morabito averages less than that, and were probably going to take him at pick 4 in the draft....

He's still my buddy for a couple of months yet so I've gotta stick up for him here.

Considering he was a project player rookie pick who wasn't expected to make an impact in his first year his form in the ressies was encouraging - 17 goals in 8 games including one haul of 6.

Then he had 18 disposals and kicked a goal on debut for the league team but only got to play one more full game before getting injured and missing the rest of the year.

He never really got a chance to show what he was capable of at league level but one good game out of the two he played isn't really what I would call struggling big time.

Dammit JM was too quick for me. I knew I shouldn't have stopped to go get a beer...

 

[JungleMuffin]

When faced with that old Shakepearean conundrum of "to beer or not to beer," i know what id be doing. You did the right thing

 

[IbbosBFF]

Don't forget the ******ed coach that had to get sacked mid-season before Sibo got a run...

 

[The Gerbil King]

Sibo will be OK.

Just think to the future when MOR-A-BI-TO bursts through the centre and puts it in the goal square abd SIB-O-SA-DO takes a hanger.

Seriously though he has talent that will a year or two yo come through. OP is not helping.
