Fisher played a few games at the end of the season. Did well but not sure that elevates him to gun forward. Still skinny and cant really gain weight.
How would he go on Scarlett?
Waite had some good games and some very poor ones. Took big strides in 2005 but again he had number 2 or 3 defender and not a zoning off 3rd defender like Fevola has to worry about.
2 promising players. Hardly reached champion status and can lock them away for the next 10 years as 2 gun forwards.
Waite might play down back or on the wing or develop into a CHF.
Fisher might also but wont be a CHF. Maybe just a very good third marking target up forward.
The people on this site seem to be convinced that any young player we have who showed anything this year will naturally improve and become a gun.
So Bentick, Carrazzo, Simpson,Fisher,Waite and Betts who showed something this year will naturally improve and become 200 game players?
How will they go when they get extra attention next year?
Pick 1,4,20,36 will all turen out to become guns as well. Forget logic and the history of draft picks it must happen?
Try being a bit more realistic Paddy.

Never, ever said Fisher and Waite are gun forwards - what are you on? Fisher and Waite have shown they can play as tall marking forwards. I think Waite spending the majority of his time at CHF and taking around 110 marks with a skinny (but getting better) frame warrants a bit more of a pat on the back.
Gun? Champion status? No-one said they were this mate!
Mate take on board what people say, say your own bit and leav it at that! I cannot understand what your beef is here!
