Review Miles Poholke Is 2019 Make Or Break For Him?

[fourhorseman]

Played a few games since being drafted, in and out of the side is 2019 a make or break year for him?

Going by his Instagram seems he spends a lot of time ‘goofing off’ drinking etc or am l missing a serious side to him?

Thoughts?

Yes, absolutely, pretty much the same with Ben Davis.

Yes agreed. 2019 make or break. From memory he only got a one year extension to end of 2019?

Hasn’t impressed. Wrong decisions, caught with the ball. No stand out features to me. Won’t make it but I hope I am wrong

Watched the replay of the Bulldogs game this season last night--Round 5 I think. He played okay in that one. Maybe he will surprise us and come on this year.

He'd have to have several spectacular games in the SANFL to even break into the AFL side or lots of injuries and even then I don't think he'd stay long. Hopefully he has a good year in the 2's, would be nice trade bait at the end of the year.

 

[1990crow]

Yes. Heading towards delist territory and given our recruits this offseason it’ll come only be harder to break in, added to those coming back from injury.

 

[Danger_zone]

I’m all for him enjoying his weekends, etc. As long as he puts in the hard yards at training.

Lets hope but does he have any real standout features?

contracted to 2020, but he would want to make sure he doesn't fall too far behind our new draftees.

Dylan’s development is perfectly on track.

He played no games in his first year at the Crows and then 9 games last year. The main problem is that he will eventually be an inside midfielder and he is currently behind Mrouch, Greenwood and CEY. He is not strong enough yet to play as a pure inside mid in the AFL so we have used him as a small forward.

As much as I enjoy the capacity of many Crows supporters to write off our KIDS, I wouldn’t be taking out the texta just yet.

He's got plenty of work to do currently, in a lot of those 9 games he showed little composure and on more than one occasion looked like a deer in the spotlight. I hope you're right but I'm not seeing it.

 

[Joey JoJo Jr Shabadoo]

Love his intensity and work rate when he has come into the side, but his skill level isn't quite at AFL level yet. Depending on how this years draftees turn out, he would have to improve a considerable amount to be offered a new contract.

 

[Coopers]

Only had 2 years on the list so far right? And he's played 9 games in his second year.

One would expect to see incremental improvement happen again. I expect it to happen, or then he will be in trouble.

Yes, I would have to agree with this

I’ve noticed his marking is quite good. Though his decision making needs to be quicker.

 

[Scorpus]

Reckon he will struggle to get games with Jones and McHenry in the squad now.

Haven't seen an AFL player in him yet. Lacks fast decision making

 

[GreyCrow]

I'm backing him in

May have to wait for 2020 to see the full Dylan but I am not going to dismiss him

 

[Squiba]

Would hope he at least starts to show a lot more as an inside mid in the SANFL at least.

 

[Thetrader15]

How many years did CEY get before he played 10 games?

Reckon Dylan is safe for a couple of years still

He’s a poor man Sam Kerridge.

Gone at seasons end. May get a second chance with a Victorian club.

Two years of draft sanctions make a huge impact on who you keep as there's limited ability to replace.

That said there are worse players on AFL lists that CEY. He's depth on the rookie list and if he can get listed at another club he probably should take that opportunity, but he's keen to stay.

If, and it's a big IF, Brad Crouch can stay fit all of the inside mids go back one spot.

Poholke is under the pump for a list spot especially as we have a top 1-3 draft pick next year thanks to Carlton.

I reckon he will improve this year, the concern for mine is him picking up the pace of AFL level in his decision making, which he won't get playing SANFL.

We do develop talent very, very well. But in some cases like Poholke I wonder if he would have been better off being picked up by a crap club that just got games into him so he could adjust to the pace/level?

He'll get better but I'm unsure if it will be enough.

 

[Shaz2012]

Dylan will need to really up his accumulation in the SANFL this year. All our AFL level mids rack them up at that level. Seedsman, a cooked Thommo, even Mackay iirc all racked them up. I think he needs to be up around 30 this year.

 

[Redline]

A big year needed for Miles but I think there are already a number of candidates ahead of him gone at seasons end so I'd expect him to be around in 2020. I haven't seen much from him to excite me.

 

[radiojake]

has got a really good mark for his size but that's about it in terms of stand out AFL qualities

happy for him to prove me wrong though

 

[jackster83]

He played pretty well in that Freo game (I know I deserve to be carded for even mentioning that game).

He needs a big pre-season to put his name in the selectors' minds. Same as Davis.
