Pretty satisfied with the choice.

He was the best available.

Wouldn't have minded someone like Betheras either.

coming off a great year in the SANFL, im sure he will be servicable, where do you think he will play? As an oppotunist forward or a midfield role?

No disrepect but wasnt Broadbridge a 3rd tall/rebounding defender type?

How will a Motlop; outside, long kicking softish type wing type help you out list wise?

Apparently he is going to be more of a replacemen for vardy. cruming forward. Once his fitness is up maybe midfield, but he has to prove he is good enough over so many players, so most likely he will be in the forward line. I'd like to see him on a half foward flank, boombing kick.

I'm happy to see him get another go at AFL level. I thought he was harshly done by. An attitude thing was the rumour. I think he will be great back up for davey and with such a penetrating and accurate kick i think neitz will benefit aswell.
As Daniher said he is a bit off the mark but i'd reckon melbourne would be hoping he was a 15-20 game player this year. I think he plays his best footy as most do when he is giving some consecutive games with say 80% plus ground time. He only ever got that for one stretch oc about 8 games at north. Good luck to him and the dees

I personally can't see him getting much of a spot as our forwardline this year should look like this IMO:

HF: Yze Miller Bruce/Green
FF: Robertson Neitz Davey

As much as I hate to say it, Holland will probably be in the forward pocket again :confused:
