Figured this could go in here, bit of an insight into how he is coping and who is looking after him. Seems that the Eagles have been trying very hard to make his parents feel comfortable, just as much as Gaffy.

Love the kid, going to be a gun!

Gun, hoping he signs a new contract for a few more years.

Will get 15-25 touches a game next year. Even if he does go I'll support him. Easily likable kid.

Hope he doesn't because without a compromised draft we would have gotten Swallow.

Super happy to be sponsoring a future hall of famer make me and all of us supporting west coast proud!

Just listening to 6PR's football segment last night, Brad Hardie reckons we should trade Gaff because he isn't a part of the future.

Not a fan of this idea, but if it netted a H.Bennell, Swallow, et al. then I would be for it.

Won't trade Gaff unless it's for a star midfielder who they can pass #3 onto. They gave Gaff #3 for a reason.

I love this guy, super happy to be his sponsor.

Andrew Gaff is looking considerably larger than at the beginning of the season. Has me thinking we have started doing larger weight sessions in preparation for next year. He looks like he is learning how to run with this larger frame. I'm really excited to see him progress and destroy 2015.

Feb 27 V Swans
March 7 V Freo
July 3
July 25 V Richmond

The boys look like they are hitting the stack significantly and this could be impacting on our 2014 as we are prepping for 2015.

Gaff to come back with Cousins arms next year!

Does look to be bulking up slightly. Simmo did mention on 6pr he wants a few players to get bigger and i bet Gaff is one of them.

even Shuey is noticeably bigger.

Gaff has looked a bit slower at times this year and joining the dots I think the increase in mass could be the reason. It will only hold him in good stead for the rest of his career. Especially once he gets his explosiveness back and improves it.

Also for the first time in his career he had more contested possessions than uncontested which is great!

 

[The_Reaper]

I think Gaff has improved a fair bit over the course of this season.

 

[flamingEMBERS]

he definitely has a much more rounded game these days

 

[Chris_6678]

I think he has been flying under the radar a little this year. I Agree with Flaming Embers in that his game has become more rounded this year. If he can add some goal kicking to his game i think he will be a step closer to being an elite we so desperately need.

 

[Reminiscence]

Biggest thing is how much stronger he is. I recall this year against Freo, where he set up the McGinnity super goal. Went full pace at Duffield, managed to break the tackle and get it to LeCras. One year ago he wouldn't have broken that tackle, shows how hard he's worked in the gym to put on some much needed size.
