Player Watch Roan Steele

[swoop42]

Mitch Woodcock knows what he's talking about.

With the name of Woodcock you'd expect him to be a straight shooter.

 

[3rdMan]

We've been great at picking small forwards , so should have some confidence with this one.

 

[sr36]

Looks really suited to the modern game. Like it.

 

[76woodenspooners]

This does not look good for Fin

Or Sullivan?

 

[SchuPie]

Dash always good
Ball drop…?

 

[gouki88]

Not having a bloody ripper of a name is probably what stopped Browne & Mason.

Go Steele

 

[TradeDraft]

 

[CasuallyDressed]

Quality bloody name, I'll give him that.

 

[Magpie Since 1986]

Just play him

This does not look good for Fin

Steele is a wing? Fin is an on baller they’ve tried to play in every position and it hasn’t worked.

 

[riddick78]

I think Fins card was stamped a while ago. I had such high hopes for him.

Welcome Roan, with Josh playing in the backline and Steele aging, we probably could of done with another wingman.

 

[unplugged]

I'm not going to pretend to know anything about Roan outside of what I've read about him tonight and his 1 minute highlight clip, but he looks like he has an ability to gut run, lower the eyes going inside 50 and hit targets and also finish on both sides! Yet to get a gauge on whether he has pace or if he's inside or outside.

Very rarely do you get a star out of the MSD, but based on what we're hearing he could possibly play some AFL footy this year. I suspect him and Sullivan might end up in an arm wrestle to be in our emergencies come the end of the season.

Anyone flat or surprised by this selection was probably just caught believing everything they read about May

 

[unplugged]

Also a pretty handy acquisition for our VFL side in the meantime!

Looking at this... you can see the MSD is on the TV. And he's already got a Pies guernsey on - I wonder if the May stuff was a slight misdirect from the club? Like we were always going to take Steele at pick 8.

I think we where Keen on May so we won’t find out

[Ludovico]

Deception is the basis of all warfare.

Welcome Roan, and here is to a long successful career with the Pies!

Why do you think that? What inside info did you have?

 

[Jen2310]

You dont tell him to sit out last weeks game and nominate 18 months if you dont want him.
And we got so close.

How do you know we told him that? Could have been any club. Could have been his adviser.

 

[leon123]

nice dog, he'll go alright

 

[Jen2310]

Nah it was us. Everyone knows this is the case.
We hoped its how we could get him, but it got leaked our interest.

 

[Harry O]

A good Frankston lad apparently.

Everyone also knew we'd take one of our own VFL players
