Yes I agree 100%, the ability to accumulate possessions is where I have doubts over both of them. Sumner has been around a while but has never really had a good run at it and Cuningham is only entering his second year, however neither has been able to gather enough of the ball. They are the types that won't need as many possessions as others to have an impact, it would be a major boost to our rebuild if guys like this can come on as they do have weapons.
'zactly. So when the club saw that Sav was getting results, why did they give him a year off?

Joey D is going to be a gun, but I'm seeing a different kinda of beast in McKay. IMO has way better agility and looks like he has him covered for speed.
They are both left footers, but McKay has a very smooth simple kicking technique, this is one of the things that may set Harry apart from other forward his size, pretty rare to find players 200cm+ with good foot skills.

Wasn't he brought in by Mick originally? Could have stepped away himself.
Can't remember, all the seasons smoosh into one for me.

From what I remember I think Sav wanted more money and the club wouldn't pay? Although the MM thing might've had something to do with it as mentioned earlier.

Does he have the drive of Joey D???
I am a fan but I'm concerned he thinks he is already there...
These young bucks need a swift kick and fast, time to put your body on the line for the others in your team, senior players are continuously spraying them and the coaches have concerns...
Marchbank leading that pack!
Doubt it.
Anyhow, if a bloke like Casboult needs a weekly caddy.......I'd cut my losses and wish him all the best.
Just has too many flaws in all aspects of his game.
Sumo as they call him....as we have seen is extremely quick...he is looking a lot lot leaner this year at training.i also would be happy for him to cement a spot in the 22 this year.Dont forget Plowman who also is looking in good nic this year who also struggled with fitness last year,he will cement his spot in defence and dominate with his run.
Pretty sure paying out Mickey and the boys left the coaching cookie jar empty.

Sav may not have wanted to commit full-time either?
In any case, happy days. If Levi can average 1.8-2 goals a game and kick 39-44 goals we'd be laughing, relatively speaking of course.

All they need is to average 19-21 touches I reckon. They dont need to average 25+ like others but get the ball a bit more than they currently are and use their talent to better our team

Time to put your body on the line for your team ??? It's pre season.
Unless you have some very much insider info, I'm not sure how you could know senior players and coaches are paying out on any of our young players.
By Marchbank leading the pack, do you mean the most to be concerned about or ahead of other young players.
I do see a lot of confidence in McKay, but IMO that's a good thing and something I think all gun young forwards need to have in there DNA, we've seen what happens when young players lack self confidences see Matthew Watson.

Just such a one dimensional player, he is a beast at contested marking, but offers very little to nothing in general play.
The worst aspect of his game IMO is the effect he is having on the team moral on field, you can almost feel the players frustration when he's having a bad night and missing shots at goal from 15 meters out.
I'd love to see him turn it all around and become a really solid set shot for goal, it just seems very unlikely.

With so many talented players across the AFL not just the CFC, we can pick up talented footballers and make them look ordinary or label them as not fulfilling their potential.
The reason being is that sometimes they are not part of a balanced side and often played out of position as a suitable spot on the ground isn't played consistently or due to the role they are required to play, they simply are not able to develop or play to their strengths.
This is similar to a 200cm ruckman like Kruezer, not big enough to play ruck and not really having the skill set required to play as a KPF, but good enough to be part of the starting line up.
So the footballing journey for players that we consider as talented gets cut short, but if part of another team they play to a high level consistently and never look back.
Hopefully this isn't the case for some of the players we are waiting on to take the next step.
There's so many reasons I can't wait for us to be a dominant team again, and giving asshats on the main board s**t again is unashamedly one of them...
It shall be great.

Joey D is an AFL standard forward who will only improve with quality around him...
Harry needs to work much much much harder...
