Is he that good anyway?

Ive heard from people that hes not as good as some are hoping. So is he just getting a run because of his name or what?

He's reasonably talented without being outstanding - but he might just be one of those kids we have given token attention to who make their mark at other clubs. Hope not - he is only a kid!

Bomber called him a late developer.

Young Tom might be like his old man !? a late developer, did'nt Couchy snr get knocked back by Fitzroy when he first started his vfl/afl career....and look how he turned out !!

Just by the pic of him in the addy he looks developed body size wise and if he turns out half the player 'couchy' was there maybe something to look forward to.

Many of our current father-sons weren't rated when young... is this more of the same?

Massive bump.

The young fella has been pretty impressive in the first quarter for the Dees.
6 touches, 2 tackles and a mark.
Doesn't look out of place and is fairly composed with the ball.
