ELIJAH TAYLOR... JS thoughts? How did he go? I went out for dinner didnt see much of that game.
I think he's good for a few games

Good & bad news really;

He's very flashy. Looks like he's gonna do something Rankine'ish out of a pack every time he goes near the ball. But the result usually ends up something completely different. His goal last night may well win goal of the week. He also had a shot (helped by a 50 metre penalty) after the final siren which should have added another 10 points to his SC score, but he missed that rather easy chance.

He doesn't seem to get separation from his opponent very well. This is both good and bad in that it limits his possessions, but when he does get them, it's a good chance that they're contested.

Yet, the issue is that it seems like he doesn't want to tackle (1 in his 2 games). I think he'll score between 20 - 70, so he's probably not an on-field option.

As for his JS, who the hell knows with Horse.

What do know M.Ling ..?
He's been on the list a few year now..
Bollox
Good u show interest coz half a chance he'll be playing for your mob in a cpl yrs. Geelong Falcons boy we took at 14 i think.
Busted his toe first preseason and all sorts of troubles. Been 2 yrs getting foot right.
Not an accumulator, taken as an outside back flanker/winger type.
Most of his points came in the last qtr where he looked pretty good. Got done by Wingard a few times but its all education and he turned the tables on him late.
He's probably got one more season here and if doesnt cement a spot he may end up at sleepy hollow. Been out so long there was speculation he was homesick and dogging it coz Geelong had their eye on him. Usual crap from fans though. He's popular and happy apparently, just needs gametime. He got the call up without even finishing a full scratch match.

Me pass, but should get at least 1 more. Stoddart potentially out rest of season doesnt hurt his cause.

Wicks and OConnor now on senior list, and Wicks a good chance this week i reckon. With Rampe out for maybe next week only (operated on busted paw yesterday) it may open door for Maibaum (def cheapie) also. Heard/seen nothing re Gould.

Always a chance McInerney comes back in for a Stephens/Warner. Horse now in full swing getting time into list.

Right now i dont see a single Syd rook i'd be in any hurry to buy. Safer to see if one breaks out with a big second game. 3 games each a likely rotation...might be good for list but a killer for SC.

Barry O'Connor...?

He's dirt cheap.

Gould might a chance with Rampe inj.

Yepp u got it, thats the one. Known as Dirt Cheap Barry to his mates.
Given up with Gould. He'll get a chance at some point. Every chance though Jack Maibaum ahead of him for a KPD slot. Melican now fit again and a possible this week...though i cant say i've ever been a fan. Rather Maibaum and Gould get a good run.
Broken hand and op = just 1 week ? Seems optimistic but thats what the club is saying. Probably good news for Rampe owners. Bloke is now running into some excellent form.
Wicks is due for a game.
