Whats the go with this bloke?? Is he of any use in the midfield/half forward?

 

[Lach72]

Geez, if we're not going for youth we may as well use someone who can kick shepherd and tackle.

personally i think he could do the job macca does + he has the flexibilty to play on taller opponents down back

he doesnt seem to be part of the older clique though so when he has one bad game he is out

 

[Frigate]

He has shown glimpses, and it looked at one stage he was going to be quite good, however he never seemed to get to that next level. Can't see him breaking into the side at this stage, but he was definately worth persisting with and has p...

no no no

 

[Jetau]

He's rubbish IMO. Played one good game once upon a time (2003 EF) and has done very little since. Doesn't get much of the pill, isn't especially skillful and tends to miss crucial shots on goal.

Webster is Solomon's understudy. Can't see him get a game while Solly is in the 22.

 

[markfarmer]

Well there you go..

..or if Matt Carr comes out he could easily come in for him.

Is he even going to be on our list in a few seasons???

Many were surprised that he was retained at the end of last season. His future depends a lot on his form, but also how the team performs. If we miss the 8 this year that will be one finals appearance in 5 years and Harvey will need to take the broom out and make 6 or 7 changes to the list.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing but to me it was a mistake to retain Browne, Macca, Webster and Matt Carr then recruit Mark Johnson, Kepler and Head. There's only a spot in the 22 for at most 2 of those 7 players unless we have a really bad run with injuries.

Don't tink you even need hidnsight for that one. It looked like a mistake at the time. The only justification with the recruiting is that they were late picks and those 2 players will contribute as much as players recruited at that stage of the draft might be expected to. If Browne is on the list, right now is when he should be playing. Pace and aggression in the midfield, Hasleby injured.

Webster is classier than most of the above.

 

[Shaymuhz]

didnt he used to go allright on a hbf? i spose we've got an entire team of those but...

 

[Kram]

I heard that Webster hurt his knee badly today, does anyone know anything about this?

Oh shit not again!!!!!!!!!

I really hope it's not bad. For those who don't know, he's already had 3 knee reconstructions. Please, please, please let the scans come out OK.

 

[newlander77]

You've really gotta feel for the guy if this is true. It would most certainly end his career.

even if we make the 8 dom the broom needs to go thru most of the above
Don't forget ryly dunn nothing on the rookie list also

 

[SupersonicDocker]

Played with webby throughout high school, such clean quality disposal... Hope he hasn't done a knee again, unfortunately injuries have curtailed a potentially quality player
