If true, that tells me that he does not have the mental strength to succeed at afl level. Pass.My mail is Francis is so disillusioned with being in Melbourne, if a deal can't get done to return to SA, he'll be playing country footy with his mates.

He lost his brother before he was drafted and he seems to have never recovered from it. He was a mad keen bombers fan I remember before and after he was drafted he went on and on about the bombers.
C'mon. I think it's best not to judge what we don't know. He's a young man living in a foreign city, far from his family, who lost his brother right around the time he was drafted in awful circumstances. I think this situation has very little to do with "mental strength".If true, that tells me that he does not have the mental strength to succeed at afl level. Pass.
I would pass on Francis. I think the best thing for him, is to go back home play country footy for a year with mates, be with his family who are from the Riverland, so if they have a farm, work on the farm, or find a job in town or on a farm, get out of the bubble of professional footy and experience some normal life again. After 9-12 months away from the professional game he is going to find out if he really wants to go back to it and commit himself to being a professional footballer.C'mon.

Would you say the same, if in 6-12 months, Marshall wishes to go home or walk away from the AFL?
From a football prrspective im not sure if francis is the best fit for port. He seems very much in the hombsch / clurey mode. Similar age to our other defenders. Much better mark but major question marks on his ability to build a tank. Dunno. We need more tall defenders but maybe a different type. I dont know why we didnt get butts last year? Perfect project player. Anyway.
Ceo's have very similar attributes to totalitarian sociopaths. It's what we need.
Hopefully one day Ken gives us all a reason to love him. Winning a premiership this year would help that I think.I just read the Aaron Hall thread. Our Carlton see you to a door mate who is never (rarely) wrong said Hall wants to play for Port next year. Gold Coast don't want him despite his obvious talent. His skillset would suit Port. It's like every player is in love with Kenny.

Talented player for sure but I don't know how he'd fit in our squad.
He would walk into our starting 22..Talented player for sure but I don't know how he'd fit in our squad.
My thoughts too. Although I’d be tempted if the club thought he could play forward or through the midfield like he was billed in his draft year.From a football prrspective im not sure if francis is the best fit for port.

Impey could have ended up the same if we didnkt let him go and Polec if we hadn’t traded for him. Your comment is way too harsh in my opinion.If true, that tells me that he does not have the mental strength to succeed at afl level. Pass.
Hall is one of those players from another team that always seem to play well when I see him play and yet every other Thursday night he gets dropped. I'm guessing they think he can't defend. Would be happy to have him on the cheap.
