Angus Graham

[Stoney]

Did he get promoted - or did they opt to go for Howatt?

 

[polakthetiger]

No..Howatt

All though I really like Jake King we really could use another tall.I think howat and Angus Graham coming off the rookie list would have been the better option.

 

[Stoney]

so King and Howatt were the two to come up?

Graham still a rookie?

All though I really like David King we really could use another tall.I think howat and Angus Graham coming off the rookie list would have been the better option.

David is an assistant coach, we do have Alessio, he is tall

king HAD to be elevated or else it would of been a waste of a rookie spot

graham has plenty of time to do something but with howat and king its now or never

I wish the kid all the best but you're spot on here.

Jake King. Even though DK in his prime would be a nice inclusion.

imagine if graham and howat were elevated and we didnt get another long term injury but king was smashing it at coburg it just wouldnt be fair

atleast now he has a chance to show something or else its back to vfl next yr

Graham would have been a good move development wise to promote him, but ability he is about the same as Knobel only difference is that Graham has a try to run down players and get the ball, but ruckwise Knobel would probably win, I think we will use Pattison as our first Ruckman as this is the time that he has to show what he will be as a footballer he showed how good he can be against Collingwood so hopefully against lesser Ruckman such as Ackland and Cloke in the first match we could beat them there and in the second round we will just have to hope Simmo will be able to come back otherwise pray for injuries to Jolly and Spider in Round 1.

Not this year, no. I think PRE fell just short of getting enough funds for a fifth player...so he missed out.
