Coleman-Jones (a second year ruckman) currently has DOUBLE the amount of touches as Collier-Dawkins (a midfielder).
No first round pick midfielder should ever be this far off the pace. I think he will be a monumental bust.
You can picture the recruiters saying "He's kid with a lot of development in his body left" "He goes through the middle a bit but struggle to find the ball" "We may have the next Fyfe"
The trouble is Fyfe is a once a decade type stroke of luck (almost) in which his ball winning ability was hidden by playing forward, then accelerated by turning into a hulk like midfielder.
Picking midfielders who struggle to find the ball in the juniors is fraught with danger. Spending a first round pick on them is madness.
Pettifer is a star.Do NoT make a call on a first year player 5min into their career that’s armchair nuffy stuff. I made that mistake once thinking Pettifer was destined to be a star after his first game and have probably only made one bad call since ,,,,,when I said the 2017 GF would be close
Just out of curiosity do you watch the reserves games live at the ground .Pettifer is a star.
For Kyabram.
No armchair Nuffy stuff about it.
Each time i've seen him play he's been underwhelming.
99% of the time.Online or if lucky on Tv.Just out of curiosity do you watch the reserves games live at the ground .
Or live on tv or live streaming
Stress fractures of the femur - 6 weeks.Is Fraser turner injured?
Some of those live feeds do my head in. I find the ones at Punt Road particularly bad and can’t pick up players on the far side of the ground.99% of the time.Online or if lucky on Tv.
And yes i know what your going to say.You don't see half of it on tv etc.I get that.But under the same premises its the same for the other players.Can only judge on what i can see.
Appreciate that it,s better than nothing thats for sure.Some of those live feeds do my head in. I find the ones at Punt Road particularly bad and can’t pick up players on the far side of the ground.
Still better than no coverage I suppose and commentators are usually entertaining
Paid off with Dangerfield...
When you're picking as late as we were, you have to make some trade-offs. Will it pay off? Who knows, but the potential is there.
Once again RCD averaged 18 disposals a game last year in the U18s playing as a forward with bursts in the middle. Let him build his tank over a couple of preseasons and then judge whether he is a bust or not.You can picture the recruiters saying "He's kid with a lot of development in his body left" "He goes through the middle a bit but struggle to find the ball" "We may have the next Fyfe"

Why does Butler wear 11 and Higgins 5 in the VFL?
