For what I assume will be the last time before he flys back, saw Fraser in the gym again this morning. Usual cardio/weights program
Overheard a convo. He’s living with Townsend. Training is hard. He went to Falls festival on New Year’s Eve and got drunk, but said he regretted it which to me is a great attitude of a young man yet to play a game. I know I’m a creep listening in, but thought I’d share with you guys haha
Just spotted this.Will be fuming we haven’t picked up another 10 talls
Just spotted this.
No was very pleased with our draft where we addressed the most pressing needs of the list. only player im a bit lost on is Aarts. Not sure if he is good enough and we have an abundance of small fwds.Not so sure about Weller either we will find out.
could have gone on a tall or a mature ruckman with these picks.
All of our reserve talls including ruckmen have virtually no games behind them we must find a way to get games into them now that we have not taken a mature backup in any areas.
Its why im so bullish about getting games into Moore Garthwaite Balta somewhere along the line we will cop serious injuries to our talls and it would be ideal to have kids step up with games behind them.
On Turner he is needed we have soft Ellis Fumbly McIntosh who doesnt get the ball, 30 yr old Grigg who everyone says has to be fazed out, and Menadue who fails every time he gets a game.
Turner is a needed outside mid who we need to come on and make it.
Are you predicting a meteoric rise?It's silly to expect too much too soon from any first year player, much less one as young as Turner, but if I have the right guy from the practice match highlights he looked very promising. Looked like he may be ready for AFL physically about as soon as he gets the hang of how to play within the team structure etc. I look forward to seeing how this guy gets on in 2019.
Turner - solid game from Turner backing up a good game in round 1. Finished with 22 disposals 4 marks and 2.2. Alternated between the wing, centre square and up forward. After a slightly slow start to the season in the practice matches it's good to see him hit some form.
How much is a lot?!?Has a lot of talent this kid
Your love for tenantHow much is a lot?!?
Yep. Is currently the pick of last years recruits that hasn’t been given a call up......Kid is definitely coming along beautifully he has adapted to VFL level extremely well and has not missed a beat
I dont have the exact stats but pretty sure he has had over 20 touches in 4-5 games
He as also added size to his frame gaining 8kgs since arriving
I have very high hopes for Turner
He’s averaging over 20p for first 8-9 games of vfl that generally is a really promising sign. Straight from draft year. It’s what you see from very good players . I’d like to see him sooner rather than later , can you play him and naish together , we don’t generally overload with rookiesKid is definitely coming along beautifully he has adapted to VFL level extremely well and has not missed a beat

In 9 games he averages per game:Kid is definitely coming along beautifully he has adapted to VFL level extremely well and has not missed a beat

Maybe just get 3 or 4 games into Naishy first. The knock on his game was his defensive efforts too. But Ellis injury opened a door for him.In 9 games he averages per game:
20.6 disposals
11.8 kicks
8.8 handballs
3.9 marks
0.8 tackles
Plays a true outside game having laid only 2 tackles in the last 6 games. Would like to see him add that to his game just to make him a more complete player.
