Did anyone se Sellars mark of the millenium last week in the magoos?

He was as high as Sean Smith at the gabba.

Sadly had been paid a free kick the other way about 10 seconds before, everyone had stopped, including the defender, apart from Sell...

Very very funny to see.

Hahaha yes! His vertical leap is outstanding.

Daniel Havelberg has played in defence and forward for us this year and done the job in both spots, he is 19 and about 6' 2" . He seems to be one of those players who has a lot of time when he has the ball, unfortunately for him AFL scouts obsession with pure athletes may preclude him being drafted as he is definitely a "footballer" . If he doesnt go he should play many good games for C.D.F.C.

He is a 'footballer', but he's not exactly a slouch. Fantastic aerobic ability for a big fella. Sensational kid as well. :thumbsu:
 
If he is more 'footballer' than 'athlete' then he is definitely worth investing time in. Too much impetus is placed on players being athletes these days but I would take a natural footy player over some bloke who can run around a bit anyday. The fact that he is playing well for a team which has dominated the SANFL for far too long and has continued to do so this year must tell you something about the bloke.

The dogs don't mess around with lads who aren't up to it.

Yes agreed on all fronts, and he does seem to have it, he's pretty big too-he is a top bloke too as someone mentioned before, which while obvisously not being everything is still important.

Agreed, surely the SANFL have figured out Sunday isn’t all that viable. I think everyone much prefers Saturday games. I mean 1 Saturday game this week, 3 on Sunday, how stupid can you get? :rolleyes:

Maric is having yet another stinker. :eek: He's just not improving. Can't get a touch, can't win a hit-out, can't have an impact up forward.

He did have a stinker. Some of his ruckwork was okay, but his field play was very ordinary as was his work up forward.

He seems to have lost all mobility at the moment - he looked very cumbersome.

He's going to have to really work on his game before he even remotely threatens Griffins position on that effort.
 
I'll add to the chorus of "Maric had a stinker"

I thought he was terrible. At the moment he can't run, falls over, drops simple marks and is just atrocious.

Meese this is your time son.

He got beaten in the ruck by 32 year old Simon Feast who no longer has any spring; that’s disappointing. His ruckwork was extremely average and he wouldn’t have had more than 10 hit outs. He did improve around the ground in the second half, taking 2-3 nice marks in defence.

However on the whole it was another sub par performance for someone who was considered a near certainty to be our back-up ruckman this year. He's been back for about 2 months now and he's no closer to finding any sort of form. If we can only keep one of Maric and Meesen, who would you make the priority to re-sign?

Are you going to ask this question after every game???

Relax. I'm not writing Maric off, he’s still a great prospect. But on what we’ve seen this year he’s not going to add to his games tally at AFL level. The thing is, Meesen is almost good enough to make it at the top level as a CHB/CHF as he wins a lot of the ball and has good skills.

Other than Maric’s ruckwork there isn’t a lot to work with IMO. He has a slightly awkward kicking style, too often he looks for the quick handball to a running midfielder, and he doesn’t possess great speed. If Meesen can add a few kg’s and improve his ruckwork, he is without doubt the superior prospect. Both are out of contract at years end, I doubt both will stay, I’m just throwing up the question of which one you would make the priority of re-signing.

Yes he struggled today . Best I can say is he is lacking confidence and I would have thought his opportunistic goal would have lifted him. Was interesting to see Meiklejohn start the centre clearances but he looked ok.

Deluca struggled I felt and the best I can say for both AFL listed boys is to keep plugging away...because it seems that its ony when you gain the experience Simon Feast has that you can dominate the whole ground and not just centre square bounces

JOHN McDONALD.

Remember this kids name. 17 year old from Sturt. All class.

Crows take note and draft him!!!!!

Looked very good today, minor criticism in that he doesnt seem to have a right foot and he holds onto the ball a little too long for my liking...but he is 17 ...hopefully he also grows a foot as he is a little short as well
