Yeah , Takes Two to fish
Heath is 21 soon going on 22 end of next season
Can’t protect him for ever he is up to it or not
SEN text rumour just now - Higgins back to the Tigers. wtf ?
Him and his family also despise everything about that football club.He just re-signed and they don't have any draft capital.

I'm listening.SEN text rumour just now - Higgins back to the Tigers. wtf ?
And at least he has some forward craft , no star but at least has some ideaI commented earlier about Gawns progress after being drafted.
I'll expand.
First Season , no games.
Second Season, 4 games, High 23 hitouts, 8 disposals. 1 goal for the season.
Third Season , no games.
Fourth Season, 13 games , High games, 38 hitouts 9 disposals, or 25 hitouts 18 disposals. 7 goals for the season.
Fifth Season , 9 games , High..23 hitouts , 9 disposals, or 6 hitouts 19 disposals. 4 goals for the season.
6th Season, 13 games. A 58 hitout 18 disposal game against Essendon. 6 goals for the Season.
7th Season, 22 games, lots of hitiouts, lots of disposals 16 goals.
I don't expect Heath to track faster than that. I'd hope he gets a few opportunities next season, probably best starting him as a forward with relief duties. Won't be calling for him to be delisted if he spuds up a couple.
Rucks take longer.
I would think we need to see Heath play AFL at some stage next year. I know he is young and raw, but the narrative around him has been identical for 2 1/2 seasons. A next step needs to happen sooner rather than later or never at all.

People don't even try when making up these rumours anymore.
Tad harsh i think , he is a big kid not a ready made midI would think we need to see Heath play AFL at some stage next year. I know he is young and raw, but the narrative around him has been identical for 2 1/2 seasons. A next step needs to happen sooner rather than later or never at all.
If we do get Dow, surely his nickname will be Yabby?So are the free jack offs included in Dows contract, or are they performance based?
I get all this.So we have one genuine ruck on our list in Roma and you would rather persist with using Hayes - who isn’t a ruck and barely been on the park in the last 18 months.
Hammer - who is anything but a ruck and if asked to do it full time would struggle.
Owens - repeat as above.
And then all the rest who are saying, keep and use Tom Campbell
The guy is 32 in November. Has played 2 games for us in 2 years - including none this year. Who at 3 clubs wasn’t even close to holding the #1 or #2 ruck mantle - clearly evidenced by his massive 52 games across 3 clubs and never having once played more then 9 games in a season in his 10 years.
And lastly Heath, isn’t ready and if it came to throwing him in for large runs. Would be detrimental to us and himself.
Meanwhile 35 year old Goldstein just played another 20 afl games this year to bring his career total to 315 games. Highlighting his durability and talent
I feel a pick in the 20s seems about right. What you paid for Hill. It gives him a value rated on potential but if he busts there isn't too much spent. Seems the right balance to me.

Dick pump dowThe Pump sounds better to me. We've already had a Yabbie.
