Looks like another ripper from the rookie list.

Was a very very speculative rookie choice at the time.

Hardly played for Claremont colts and was drafted on form shown for playing with Albany in the south west.

Has a body like Plugger Lockett but can jump and loves to crash a pack.

Has strung three very good games together, is not eligible for rising star as he is too old now.

Yeah this guy can play and will be much better next year with another full preseason under his belt.

Impressive prospect no doubt, almost his biggest asset is his confidence/temperament. Just as well WC can manage the odd rookie gem now and then, first rounds/trades have been a nightmare for them recently.

He seems pretty good but, but demands the 4th best defender after Kennedy, Darling and LeCras which is a bonus for a big man with a good leap

Was the only positive I saw in West Coast after we thumped them. Very sticky hands.

Good player. Two questions.

1. Where has he been?
2. Would Lycett be another to get similar praise if he could string a few games together instead of old man Cox.

1. Has had to compete with a plethora of talls, some of them AA quality - still developing like Lycett and co.
2. I rate Lycett (along with many other fans) and also think Cox should be put out to pasture to ensure Lycett signs on - he's out of contract.

It now appears, going forward, that Naitanui, McGovern and Lycett offer plenty of height for us in the future.

Was more impressed with Mckenzie.

He does a power of work with clean ball coming into his defensive half, feel sorry for him having to continually play under duress with such a fragile midfield in front of him.

Would over him big dollars to take over from Mcpharlin.
