He was the most exciting kid on our list 12 months ago so I agree there is some upside. Some of his efforts this year really worried me though.
I'd give him up for a Wingard though.
Burton 18th in B&F, only missed one game. Has gone backwards. Reputation greater than output at this point.
Back flankers easily replaced. Hard to find players who do what Wingard can do.
I didn't realise he was so unpopular. I understand he is down on form, but given the opportunity I think he could be a very good half back. Good in the air, good decision maker, good skills.
O'Brien has some talent and there is no easier position than half back. We did it with Sicily and it could lift O'Brien's game also.
A half back line of Burton, O'Brien and Gunston.
I know stats may say one thing, but i know I get very nervous every time the ball goes high into our backline.
I think Hardwick, Sicily and Stratton are going ok. I think Birchall goes straight back to his flank when he is ready.
Our backline probably has two gaps, unfortunately they are the...
Forget Jaeger for 2017. Nothing to be gained by rushing him back now.
Morrison deserves to debut this year.
It would be good to give Lovell another taste.
Heatherly and Stewart keep performing at VFL. It would be good to see them get a few games in a row.
Gibson has been a champion of the...
Yeah, he definitely got some attention. He tried all day though - I felt for the kid.
It must be hard for a kid with that profile coming back from so long out of the game.
I hope you're right about next week.
Maybe the 12 out of 16 was a bit optimistic :) but I'd rather be positive than negative. And that team is obviously what I'd like to see rather than what we will see.
But we need to get faster and more creative. If we keep playing the same team we will get the same result.
Ok, Vickery has...
What will we do with Dangerfield?
I'm confident we can cover them in other areas but we don't have a great matchup for the man.
Shiels isn't playing very well.
Burgoyne is our best tackler and would make it hard for him at the contest, but when on the outside it could get ugly.
Nobody tries harder than Langford and his numbers are great this season but his poor decision making and skills make him a liability in my opinion.
It's hard to drop a bloke after 29 touches though.
This may sound harsh because nobody tries harder for the Hawks, but Langford hurts us. His intensity is amazing but he just makes too many mistakes and bad decisions.
