When he's been playing 2's, he's been up against Simpkin, LDU, Cunnington and Phillips in the middle. Howe and Shiels have been more wing/hb.i find it incredible that he's apparently been playing in the '2nds' team in the match sim stuff. while I'm happy with the acquisitions of Howe and Shiels, I'll be pretty disappointed if Tom's not in our round 1 side and those other two guys are.
Howe and Shiels have different strengths and roles in the team. I think Powell plays his best footy in the centre square in which I doubt we'll see too much of him this year in there.i find it incredible that he's apparently been playing in the '2nds' team in the match sim stuff. while I'm happy with the acquisitions of Howe and Shiels, I'll be pretty disappointed if Tom's not in our round 1 side and those other two guys are.
Hell yeah brotherI reckon he's going to be a big unit in a few years as well. Seems to be putting on genuinely lean mass. I've coached my fair share of skinny kids before and I reckon he has the body type to really pile on some muscle.
My bet is he'll end up looking like Scott Thompson from Adelaide.
Good call, a bit like his dad too and even reminds me of Will Phil with a shaved head.Reminded me a bit of the former Melbourne/Adelaide midfielder Scott Thompson in that photo.
He's better off playing against those guys imo, especially Cunners and LDU because he'll be challenged.When he's been playing 2's, he's been up against Simpkin, LDU, Cunnington and Phillips in the middle. Howe and Shiels have been more wing/hb.
Do you play him as a genuine mid or wing?

If he's good enough he will play. I rekn we wait and see - if he's second or third mid rotation (I'd probably have him second), it's probably better he plays in the '2nds' team to get full mid minutes in preseason.i find it incredible that he's apparently been playing in the '2nds' team in the match sim stuff. while I'm happy with the acquisitions of Howe and Shiels, I'll be pretty disappointed if Tom's not in our round 1 side and those other two guys are.
You just play him Mick.When he's been playing 2's, he's been up against Simpkin, LDU, Cunnington and Phillips in the middle. Howe and Shiels have been more wing/hb.

Put him on the wing and tell him it's his ball to win when the ball-ups and throw-ins happen on his side. Carrot and stick. Make him demand that spot in the CBAs.

All it takes is swapping out one of the mids to play Powell's role instead during those stoppages.Clarko may not want his wingers getting sucked into the contest.
