Changes vs Gold Coast (R5) - Jetta in for Kent

[mrmonkey]

Where is Barry at? I haven't taken too much notice in him. How far off is he from playing seniors? It shouldn't be too hard to crack into this Melbourne team when he is ready.

He's been on the list since 2008, he's 24 years old and has played 41 games.

I still don't understand why he was re-rookied.

Should only play if he's doing really well in the seconds.

He is really doing Extremely well in the 2nds last years qualifying round he was BOG in my opinion. And he was one of the best against the dogs in the last round. He's been absolutely tearing it up this year, super consistently and been in the best if not the best each week for Casey. He's also added a great deal of versatility to his game playing well back, midfield and forward. I have been preaching this for all too long. It's time for the year of the Jet.

He did play some NAB Cup games this year, he got a bit of a the ball against Richmond, not a lot, but was involved in the game at times. I recall he took on the play with some run a couple of times, may have shanked a couple of kicks / made the wrong decision, but perhaps enough there to persist with. Still very slight and very raw. Don't know how he is going in the VFL this year, others may be able to elaborate.

Looking at him to me he is physically a mile off AFL level, I think he is currently a less developed version of Sam Blease and unless he has amazing game sense like JKH where he can still contribute I wouldnt have him anywhere near AFL level yet

Is it a bad thing to have a couple of projects running round? Hunt is another one, guys that you give 4 years and try again.

10. Byrnes
17. Blease
19. Strauss
21. Pedersen (in contract)
26. Nicholson
32. Evans
33. Barry
35. Tapscott
44. Bail

Pedo will be kept because he is contracted and is depth. Bail is playing himself into another year (though obviously a long way to go and needs to be consistent). The rest are all trade bait/delist material at this stage. That's still seven possible list changes at years end, which is quite a lot (eight including Clark).
