[morgues]

Buckley - his precision and ability to inspire the boys.
Burns - what he sometimes lacks in finesse, he makes up for in dedication.
Caracella - his conversion and smart crumbing up forward.
Clement - everything. Intelligent, strong, quick thinker.
C Cloke - he has bursts of greatness, but sometimes hes too quiet.
J Cloke - feel sorry for him, now that is best game is easy to counter.
T Cloke - exciting prospect for the future.
Cole - in time, he will gain so much from playing with our seasoned defense.
Davidson - Not sure, potential is huge, just hope he can reach it.
Davis - burst player that is a bit too on and off.
Didak - recently his ability to niggle at opposition to gain an advantage has been excellent. his left boot is a killer
Egan - fast. in time will be great
Fraser - his dedication has been amazing. slow 2005 but will gain confidence.
Hall - Dunno
Holland - tagging may be his best feature, but his ability to slip under the radar could be beneficial.
Iaccobucci - too early to tell imo.
Johnson - fast thru midfield, just needs to sharpen his kicking a tad and also be more calm
King - curly hair (had to copy that hahah)
Licuria - solid contributor, even if he doesnt get the attention that others get
Lockyer - cant wait to see him after a season.
Lokan - crazy john is good, he means well, but is often overlooked.
Lonie - speed and 50m+ goals
Maxwell - going to be a great trainee under clemmy, wakes and presti
C Morrison - experience
B Morrison - not sure
O'Bree - when hes playing well, hes a great assett, when hes not, he can be a liability
Prestigiacomo - underrated and much maligned, hes a great big man to take on the bigger forwards
Richards - not sure.
Rocca - his presence is crutial and his ability to kick a long bomb to inspire the team is amazing
Rowe - seems to be a great young kid, but its too hard to tell so far
Rusling - fingers are crossed he can be a key in the future
B Shaw - not sure
H Shaw - not sure
R Shaw - he is fast. he has matured, and is less likely to make mistakes. i really respect his work ethic. he is also much maligned, and most of the time its unfair.
D Swan - another great rookie to learn from presti, wakes and clemmy
Tarrant - leading, tackling, marking, ability to draw defenders away and setup goals for other forwards.
Wakelin - never gives up
Walker - potential to be a big burly KPP
Williams - far too on/off.
Woewodin - admire is ability to continually go in hard, perhaps needs to sharpen his awareness




That was hard. Some players i have seen little or nothing of
