DAVEY.. fast, good skills and can tackle. i like him back there but we need in the forwrd line too. pity we dont have a few of him.
which is why we should of drafted alwyn... i knew he would of been good and we would of got drafted. yeah he wasnt so good when he trained with us a few years ago but the same thing happened with Aaron. No one wanted him and he ripped it up in the VFL and again no one wanted him until we took him in the rookie draft and look at him now.

I don't lose any sleep over not drafting him. He is more one dimensional than Aaron is.

And Wheatley finished? Pull the other one. He was very good in the second half of the year. Will slot nicely on to the back flank hitting players lace out with 60m kicks.
 
I think Bailey & Co. are going to use Wheatley & Frawley in this role. Bell is going to be used on the opp. best forward, which is something Belly is starting to get a few big scalps. Perfect as a stopper not creator. CJ may get a chance along with Green. Personally I think it will be Wheatley as a Quarter Back type (Set it all up and release others into space) and Frawley will be grommed into the running Half Back. Frawley has pleantly of toe, loves to take opp. on, and pretty good foot skills. Pettard will be used in the midfield and forward of centre. Pettard will be our next TJ but only better and more consistant!!!!
The club sent Wheatley over to China with all the other young punks, so obviously they value him??. Lets hope he can have an injury free year and finally put it all together.

Bring on 08 already!

You reckon he is? Why?

He has looked waaaaaaay out of his depth. He might kick a footy okay but he goes missing far too easily. Has a bit of pace but nothing special.

He is the perfect candidate for Melbourne fans. Shows a bit (but not alot) at VFL level and we cream our pants. Not in our best 30.
 
I watched Petterd in a TAC cup match and he absolutely dominated in this position. After the game, i was really hoping that the roos would pick him up. He is a talent, i think he may be the one for Melbourne to play the role.
 
this is a good topic, nathan brown did this role pretty well for us last season, especially in the 2nd half... would like to see petterd slot into his position... we have enough guys who can play midfield, lets turn ricky into the next heath shaw...

He does have a bit of CJ about him (good skills, plays very well at VFL level but doesn't get much of it at AFL level). If he improves that he'll be a decent player because he has good balance and skills which are very important. He has only played a couple of games. Give him all of the pre-season games on a wing.
