Yeah because he could possibly just keep up in pace...cos Dusty's not the fastest runner...
What are you talking about? Dusty did a 2.89sec 20m sprint at the combine, that is elite speed, would be #1 this year by plenty
He wouldn't be able to break away from packs like he does if he wasn't fast

Hobbs looks a bit meat and potatoes to me for pick 7. Smallish inside mid with not a lot of pace. A bit of X-factor at such a high pick would be nice.
Get 9 off the Saints.
Hobbs & Rachele.
Could live with that although i prefer Ward.

Kicking 5 in a country league final playing senior footy as a 14 year old enough “X Factor”?
Sounds a very good prospect to me but admittedly have not seen him play

Meat and potatoes is what we need right now imo plenty of X factor in Bolton and RCD but we need someone who can start winning the contested inside ball to get it into their hands

Plenty of later picks to take some more risks for X factor types

He said on the radio this morning he's 183cm. So he's 8cm taller than Prestia, 1cm taller than Ablett, 2cm shorter than Cotch, 3cm shorter than Petracca, 4cm shorter then Dusty, Wines and Oliver and 1cm taller than Duckwood except for all the times he's a foot taller because Joel is headbutting someone's armpit. He's 8cm shorter than Macrae except every time Macrae feels contact coming and goes to ground. Macrae of course is not an inside mid. Libba is arguably the best pure inside mid in the game and he's the same height as Hobbs.

Hobbs' height is not a concern, is what I'm saying. Meat and potatoes? Maybe.

Agreed, X factor types usually means inconsistent. We need someone we can rely on week in/week out.

lack of height makes you a bit one dimensional that is all. No overhead game which many of the taller mids have. Without good pace he seems a bit Taylor Adams type, which is not a bad thing, a good footballer, but maybe not at 7.

He's actually a very good forward also so his overhead game is fine. In fact, its rare that a pure inside mid can be a threat forward.

Man I would take a Taylor Adams clone with pick 7.

There should be no risk at pick 7 to get a player who can find the ball and has a bit of X factor.

Every pick has risk mate, thats not realistic.
