What are everyone's thoughts on Brent and can he cement a full time spot in the crows line up ?

Interested to see what everyone has to say.

Thanks

He can and he will.

His progress has been slowed by injury and he's only played 10 AFL games to date, counting the 3 that he's played this year.

Contrary to the thoughts of some of our supporters, I still think he's going to be a very good long term player for the Crows. Has a lot of class.

Thanks, macca23

Hi macca 23,
Thanks for your thoughts about Brent, much appreciated.

He comes from my local area and just wanted crows supporters thoughts on him.

I actually support Sydney, but am always interested in tprogress of our local boys playing in the big league.

Thanks again.

Gun in the making who has silky skills and is not afraid to do the physical stuff. Will be a good player for years to come.

Mmm I tend to agree but to a lesser extent. We've seen so many young midfielders at the club who have come with big raps and promised the Earth but delivered Pluto.

While he has shown the odd sign here and there coming into his third season at the club, he's yet to have a real burster that signals his arrival on the scene as a player. There's also a sizeable amount of midfielders his age or younger that have more runs on the board throughout the league these days.

For the good of everyone involved with the club from the player himself to the coach to the bootstudder, it would be tremendous if he does become a gun, but I won't be surprised if he doesn't.
