Might just wait and see what happens before ranking anyone... Highlights clips are just that.. highlights. Not showing any negative so doesn't really give a true reflection

Best example is Bourke, looks a star in those clips, from reading what Wells said on radio the other day the way I read it is he is soft as butter, the fact he mentioned he needs to do more than be outside but having a shoulder injury they will cut him a bit of slack initially.... clearly doesn't go near a hard ball..

As I said tho, looks a star in the highlights

It is just so hard to know or even guess. But at this stage I must say that I think given the pick required to secure the player - Kolo might end up being the steal of the draft for us.

Like the sound of Toohey but historically rookies rarely make it (just ask all the Eardley fans on this Board ! I do not think Daz is over yet - may take another Premiership for him to get over the delisting).

1. JK
2. Lang
3. Toohey

Bourke I doubt will ever play a game for us, we've got X-Factor type guys already who are well ahead of him and a lot more consistent. Toohey could be the next Egan or Taylor (overage defender) and JK could be as good provided he gets a little extra height.

Hard to judge on Youtube clips that are designed by their nature to be the "best of".

Need to see live fire situations to make those assertions.

Id be happy with 50 games from all of them….

Slight side issue, but who will be our rookie promotion for Menzel- Blic, Toohey?

Toohey, if promoted next year, will be a beauty.
Has to be Blivcavs, doesn't it.

I would go so far as to suggest that I'll eat some headwear if it isn't, but I'm still picking the band of my last one out of my teeth - vis-a-vis Blitz getting promoted...
