Plough says hi.Just in response to Scottroo on Curtis Taylor's thread I was gonna say almost exactly the same thing. I can't remember when our list was like this except for during the mid - late 80s when thinking about those u19 sides (who went on to be quite good.)
I can't remember our list being this good in a long time. Not since the 90s side.
Curtis Taylor was pretty good in r1 and Bailey Scott was pretty good in r1 last year and both have some development to come.
It's like we got Wells, and then another three or four as good players and a bunch more who are close. Since Jy. Maybe not quite as jaw droppingly talented as Wells but all pretty damn close and ... honestly ... they seem harder, tougher players.
I haven't felt this way about our list since the 90s. Sure we've been close but these guys are genuinely exciting. The next three years could be very good.
Two of those guys are genuinely good midfielders. One has some
limitations the other is elite.
One is okay (Greenwood), was better when he was still with us. He's serviceable...
Everyone we've drafted since we picked Jy Simpkin gives us a better group than those four, and if we get three quarters of those players who can play midfield at a similar ratio then that's two elite players, two who could get 10 Brownlow votes, like Jack last year, so pretty damn good on their day and another two serviceable ie Greenwood level players plus maybe one more who could be in any of those categories.
Still a much better return IMO. Who knows even Basti could have been more with a better development set up.
Don't forget mahoney, i reckon he has more to show as he maturesThis time around, though, we’re, hopefully, not talking about just four guys. Thomas, Jy, LDU, Bailey, Zurhaar, Larkey, Taylor and Walker all have potential X factor. Then there’s Kyron, Perez and Comden to hope for.

What role is he playing against the Giants? 1 kick and 1 handball is a touch disappointing for a half of footy.

He often gets a contested ball and takes a hit without losing it in congestion. Doesn't get a stat for it but it's crucial as it stops the ball spilling out.

A few blokes rotated onto Zac Williams, but TT was the main one.Appeared to me that Tarryn completely neutralised the pretty dangerous Zac Williams as part of his role, i rated his game as quite good actually.
Then that was a job done - they couldnt get any run off half backA few blokes rotated onto Zac Williams, but TT was the main one.
