[Rod Stroker]

had a tendency to miss targets and get himself in to trouble.

he is a wonderful mover with lovely skills on both sides of his body.

This doesn't make sense, seems contradictory.

lovely skills on both side of his body.... but misses targets.

 

[The Nostradamus]

1 more prac match then should Debut

give him a taste which will help his development leading into a full preseason

Can't you just type this stuff out on a word doc and then email it to yourself?

I guess he could be suggesting some issues with decision making or maybe a tendency to try and do too much? I very much look forward to seeing what he’s like as he sounds pretty promising.

 

[Billy Not Really]

Can see him playing against the Suns, but I'd like to see him against the Pies, perhaps replaces Will Walker.

Think we'd be doing him more of a service playing our game, our way, in a real AFL game than in Saints' jumper doing their methods playing faux-scratch matches that are like half of the experience you'd gain from a regular VFL game.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Has the kid been in full training for a month yet?

I'd actually like some feedback from the scratch matches.

 

[ChoppyGun]

Play him.

If he fails so be it, it's all 2021 now.

I'd rather play him than Pittard to return who's been abysmal and near 30.

 

[Luke72]

Perez certainly looks the part - doesn't anyone with draft knowledge know whether he can play?

I understand he has been injured at both junior and senior level - when he was fit what role did he play?

Half back flank, creating play. Not much of an aerial game but hoping to develop it.

We don't need aerial.

We need creative run and carry.

Hopefully he can.

 

[DuckYeah]

Will Walker was underwhelming and looked to have done a hammy.. just play kids with some senior heads in there and i’ll be happy.. keep the speculatives in lets see if they can cut the mustad

 

[muttley45]

Hope both Flynn and young Crock get a debut this year, Rhyce said he is going to look at the whole list, and management for currently un-injured or out of form senior players should be a consideration.

Agreed add a laser foot and its what weve been lacking for 2 decades.

Thanks L72 - quality foot skills to go with that creative side I hope?

I thought Will was good. His positioning on the ground is excellent.

Yeah I was under the impression they were good. He’s one of the players we sponsor so have been fortunate enough to have a couple of chats with him. Seems really dedicated and a quality person.

I thought Walker looked great fro a guy playing his second game in two years and just his 5th or 6th overall.

Just watched his video highlights - very promising - looks dual sided and very competitive.

Hopefully he can get a game this year.

He was second in disposals at half time or before he got hit. Had 14. Was actually doing really well

Considering how far he’s come back from, he was superb.

 

[Snake_Baker]

Crock could definitely get snapped in half. Give him another 6 months of eating & weights mate.

His old man was brought in too lean also, and it cost him 150 games.

 

[koshari]

If football doesn't work out the Perez, Simpkin, Tarrant, and Taylor can start a boy band.

If footy dont work out for those 4 blokes ( granted taz slready has had a pretty decent career ) we are in for a lot of hurt.

What?

Will had 13 disposals going at 80% DE playing on a wing in a half of footy in his second game back in two years... how is that underwhelming? He is a kid.

Because he was soft.. he’s timid in the contest.. you cant teach that s**t and Shaw would have seen that too

 

[Snake_Baker]

He's definitely grown in the last 6 months

With those cheeks and that hair style, he looks a bit like Jy at first glance
