Sells poisoned milk to school kids.

Nah, nothing wrong with him at all - in fact, you've inspired me to re-watch his highlights package.

I dont deny that he's a good prospect - but seems very high risk, high reward.

Not saying thats a bad thing. I'd be happy with him and a bunch of others at #13.
Remember Sin City having some concerns over his defensive work but his attacking attributes could push him close to our pick. Personally have him around Geelong's pick as they would back their development.

Would also like to know what Sin thinks of Dumont, who to me looks like a polished version of Acres.
 
I wasnt suggesting a backmans highlights package would be bad just that in most cases compared to a decent forward they arent quite as impressive.

Looks a player, but at 192 you'd think hed be a 3rd tall?

Darren Glass is 192cm and Taylor is 193cm.

Would say Acres is probably more polished but I do like Dumont. Doesn't stand out at any one thing but doesn't have a weakness either and has performed very well in the midfield at senior SANFL level and that's a league that I have a lot of respect for.

You can't argue with his actual times and measures at the Combine though.

They look very poor.

Was he got at to tank by the Club he barracks for?

Depends on how far you look into them I guess. Had a pretty bad ankle injury during the year which is why he played as a third tall forward in the champs rather than midfield where he had been playing so well for the Knights and is a big part of the reason his aerobic fitness was down.

Small hands and short arms from his testing. OK then, but he's also shown that he's a 189cm midfielder with aggression that is IMO the best kick in the draft and can bomb goals from 60m out and also proved in the national champs that he can hold his own as a forward.
 
I don't like the short arms argument that is being made about Lennon, look at Daniel Rich's arms and look how he's doing in the top level.
Short arms just means that if he comes to our club, that "T-Rex" can be one of the nicknames he gets

Does Lennon have more scope as a midfielder than Menzel?

He is a midfielder and always has been, except for when his ankle looks like this:



But people who only watched him in the national champs think he's a forward only without knowing all the info.

Excellent game in the granny, could possibly become the best mid from SA this year.

Since we are on the topic of the SANFL whats your thoughts on Tippett SIN if you havent given it already, is it over hyped would we be making a mistake taking him in the draft to ensure we get him?
 
Judd's a 188 cm beast compared to Freeman.

Freeman's speed and play reminds me of Murphy, Yarran and Shuey. Sweeps past to receive and accelerates to deliver the ball on the run. Doesn't appear to be an iffy kick like Crouch and Zak Jones. Would be happy for Carlton to take another quick mid with skill.

Yeah, he's a big dude, Juddy - he's actually 189cm.

Damn, I'm starting to get worried about Crouch, quite a few people mentioning his kicking, now.
