Where is the kid at? I know he got relegated to the Rookie list, bit I think he is a great player.
 
He is certainly nothing like a good player, yet alone great player.

Opportunity has passed him by.
 
Good point, great player is a bit over the top, but I think if the kid could get and keep himself fit, he would have alot to offer.

More than likely he's at the hospital. Seriously injury prone. It's a shame really a lot of us had high hopes for him.

The list of players who are ahead him is getting longer and longer. He'd have to be an unstoppable force for the sharks this season if he hopes to be at Fremantle next year.
 
Ryley is a classic example of how the modern game has passed some peoples bodies by. Quicker/Stronger/More Intensity/Bigger Hits

Robbie Haddrill is another one like Dunn, sadly andy browne could be put in that too...

All showed glimpses at some stage but the body cant sustain it.
 
The Driller was an even more exceptional case. He was all but All Australian in 2003 and was playing brilliant footy before being cruelled by the curse of injury (after injury, after injury...). He had so much to offer this football club but tragically never got the chance to deliver.
 
I noticed Harvey said last night that all but 2 players would be playing this weekend in some form. One of those would be Hase, the other is?

This is just a guess... but I reckon he might have meant aside from Hase. Everyone knows Hase is out for the season so I reckon he might have meant that of everyone other than Hase, there's only two not playing.

Would he count Dunn in that - or is he off the radar now he's a rookie?

IMO he meant 2 of Foster, Thornton and Brock. My money is on the first two.
