Certainly unusual for someone to come in and be better than the established players. However that's a bit different to someone coming in and being physically ready to play seniors if injuries mean we need to play them in preference to kids who are not ready. Hopefully our injuries don't get that bad anyway.
Wouldn't be surprised if we're thinking along those lines now as unlike Marchbank and Cunners who are definitely depth or options to get a game when non injured, HOK wouldn't be. Free hit to nab a potential decent player considering it would be handy to find a small/medium forward, a pacy-ish mid and a tallish defender to minimise risk for the remainder of the season.
Isn’t that exactly what Binns is??
That's what he is supposed to be. I am thinking that he gets a full run this week. Against the Ducks in Shitney.
It won't hurt the chances of Oliver Poole who debuted on the wing in our VFL side last week.
I'd prefer to pick someone a bit more physically able. We've seen what happens when Ollie tries to tackle someone, he just gets shook off. Someone around 21-24 years old would be perfect.
Perhaps 23yo Luke Beecken from SANFL is our guy then. Seems to be one of the very few msd prospects with genuine pace, endurance and kicking skill.
Welsh is also promoting his wingman Saad El-Hawli.
Skrobalak will not lift an eyebrow if a club swoops on his former Saint Dan McKenzie, whose absence last Friday night prompted five clubs to message Port.
