Read the article on one of our lesser hyped recruits http://www.thewest.com.au/default.as...ntentID=148131


Tough little bugger crashing packs when he weighs all of 66kg. From the sounds of the article I hope he can make it to the next level as he just sounds so fearless and hard at it. Seems we are building a team of like minded players.

Tough and uncompromising bastards who don't take a backward step and put the team first. I like the steps we are taking in recruiting and Harvey is backing it up with his no ducking the head policies.
 
“He’s a gem of a kid, raw as hen’s teeth but he provides a spark up forward,” Jarman said. “He’s as rough as guts in terms of when he’s got the ball.

“I love his unpredictability and I think it’s really important that we have someone like him.

“He’s 12 months away from playing AFL football, if not hopefully earlier. You put him and (Hayden) Ballantyne up forward, they’re going to be a very dangerous combination for Fremantle.”

I read this and got shivers..... Things are really looking positive for Freo and where Harv's has us headed!!:thumbsu:
 
Gee, imagine waking up and finding out you've been on an AFL list for the past 6 months.
 
The kid is looking the goods !!:thumbsu:
As far as ducking the head policy, why is HEAD still getting a game !
He's a deadset shirker !!
Other than that I'm with harvey all the way !!

massive fan of anyone that is fearless, takes a mark and kicks goals......... will be interesting to see his progress in the next 12 months, we may have another chris mayne on our hands by the sounds of it :thumbsu:
 
Im liking our small-med forward options moving forward into the next few years.

Mayne Pavlich Hall
Ruffles Campbell Ballantyne

Walters rotating through from the midfield

Its a bit small but you just have to look at the quality smalls at Collingwood to see it works.
 
All the best to young Timmy , a local lad from town here .

Totally suprised he's got a game this early , his old man told me they saw him very much as a 'project' player .
 
Mate he is a project player but with so many injuries he may get a chance to show what he can do. Doubt it will be this week though........

He is. But he has the heart the size of phar lap and is totally committed to every contest.

We have a lot of injuries, but suggest he has got a place ahead of others because of pure desire on the field.
 
They'd be throwing the poor bugger to the lions if they brought him in against Geelong.

Really don't think it's a good idea to bring in a kid with such a light frame against such a hard at it team. And knowing he won't take a backwards step he'll probably come of second best. I'm worried for him :(

Yep hope he doesnt play this week, geelong is full of big solid body players an as we saw last year if we play with such heart and give them a tough game, they will look to rough up our young players an really punish them with there tackles.
Hill will need to be looked after if he plays well.

Looks to be nice height for a forward/mid needs to bulk up abit.
Def seems to be a common trend with most our draft picks that they all have plenty of guts an determination.

The saying is "rare as hen's teeth"...."raw as hen's teeth" makes no sense. :confused:

oh for god's sake. i think everyone realises Jarmen stuffed up the saying, we all know what he meant though.

now bugger off back to your own board and worry about the grammatical skills of your own club

Maybe Ruffles is just so damn unbelievably good that players of his quality are as rare as hen's teeth?

That's what I choose to believe he meant anyway.

Technically as Jarman isn't employed by the club (as far as I'm aware) he isn't attacking the gramatical skills of our club so your personal attack is baseless. ;):D
 
Who cares !! I just want to see the kid play.
I reckon we are a very very very silly chance this Sunday.
I took the 9's on offer.
Harvey is moulding his own team !!:thumbsu:

yeah no shit. i still think he'd be better off worrying about his own rabble than people comenting on freo :p. My attack on him was because he's a slimeball supporter, on our thread, making a point that adds nothing. ;) that's why i told him to bugger off to his own board.
