Hey Cat Fans! Congrats on a great year, was just wondering how Matthew Spencer is coming along? Im In WA, have been trying to find some stats on him. Spanner was a very mobile ruckman at colts level last year, but is not tall enough to play ruck in the AFL, more of a KPP.

Anyone got any info how he went this year with the Geelong VFL side??? Cheers

Started the year off well but faded towards the end. Was played mainly as a tall defender. Has a great build and moves well but has very poor disposal. Is still a couple of years away.
 
Do you guys see a bit of Matty Primus in him??? When I played with him last year, he was our general. He was everywhere. Granted, his skills werent the best but they werent the worst. He has a huge ticket. Give him a job and he will do it. It was always a treat to see him and Kepler Bradley going head to head in games.

The Primus comparison might be a fair one but he hasnt got the build to play like him at the elite level.Id hope he has more skill than Primus or he is dead meat.If he is to advance he must show superior marking abilities,one on one and on the lead he must be like a vice cause I cant see him being much more than a mark and kick for a fair while.
 
He is a big fellow, great competitor, courageous, but he is a lumbering player. Hes not that disimilar to a Mal Micheal i suppose, so if he could be half the full back Micheal is hed be a good player for us.
 
I think it would be great to blood him next year, a few games. And if you say he could be key defender, then throw him down there. He would have the best 2 in the comp to learn from in Scarlett and Harley. Agreed he isnt big enough to dominate at AFL level, but i think he could be pretty handy. Hopefully he takes huge strides next year.

Obviously im a bit of a fan. Like to know how he is going. But there is a huge difference between AFL footy and WAFL colts/ressies. Im hopeful he can make the jump up.
