G'day fellas,
Just wanting your thoughts on Foley and Raines. How much improvement can you see in these two young guns in 2007, and what sort of role do you expect them to play?

Cheers
Best of luck for 2007

Foley will be our highest placed player in the Brownlow, and Raines will win the Norm Smith medal.

Thats what i have been saying for weeks now. Andrew Walker of Carlton is $2000 for a place on brownlow night. I have not seen the odds on Foley for a place. hmm They will both have good seasons. Raines new haircut :S lol
 
Raines has a ****load of improvement left, most of which he will get through more experience (ie decision making)

Foley also needs enhanced decision making and skills, but of course most players on our list do:o Therefore he also has a ****load of improvement left.

How much of that will come in 2007?
 
No idea mate. It's a bit hard to quantify. No real way to answer this question unless you want some cliche riddled drivel. All I can say is what I said in my previous post.
Haha cheers. Thanks for the honesty.
 
Sounds like you're building a dream team ;)

Foley's disposal was a worry last year even if I didn't notice on game day (only stats show it).

During the pre season he was clearly one of our best players in every intra club match and the reports said his disposal was nothing to worry about.

He got 52 possies in the VFL the other year. If he doesn't really step up in 2007 he'll drop back in the pecking order a little but I think he'll be a big improver this year based on training and match form.


Andrew Raines will play the same role as 2006 and be a little bit better at it. He won't play midfield full time until he's had 50 games (so next year if he's uninjured). He played midfield in the prac match last week and played very well so expect some stints in the middle.
