Average kick, average speed, questionable character - is how one AFL club recruiting team summed up Jonty. They were shocked Richmond took him with pick 14.

I got this info second hand from what I consider a reliable source. Btw, this club rated FOS as clear no.1 pick.
Did this club win 3 of the last 8 premierships?

I didn't rate FOS 1, that's all that matters. Your reliable source sucks.
 
Jonty Faull will be the greatest KPF to ever play the game and will form the most destructive partnership ever seen alongside Harry Armstrong and Tom Sims
RT the Soothsayer?!…. Prophetic words, Gotta be ambitious….

I listened to the Tiger Talk podcast where they had a draft expert (who happens to be a North Supporter). He had some very interesting things to say about Jonty. In particular why he was picked earlier than Armstrong and why he feels he will be invaluable to our success in the future. He said that Sydney were very keen on him because of what he offers to a forwardline. He suggested that Faull may not get the 3+ contested marks that an Armstrong may but he creates goals through his work rate and efforts. He said that, as forwardlines become more congested and delivery into the F50 more haphazard, forwards that can work in packs to bring the ball down to our smaller forwards, tackle, handball and pinpoint free players inside fifty, will become more valuable than traditional, stay at home forwards.

I think Faull will galvanize many peoples opinions on here. Some will question his value because he won't kick you a bag of goals like a Jack (in the early years), but for those that can see Faull more like Jack (in the later years), where he sacrificed his own game to bring those around him into the game and make us a better team, then you will realise Faull is exactly what we need.

The best thing is that we drafted a player like Faull, who can fight, scrape and create goals, along with the best traditional lead-up forward in the draft in Armstrong. They will compliment each other and, along with players such as Algers and Lalor, will develop into a diverse offensive unit, capable of winning games under any situation.

Faull is exactly the forward we needed for the future.

Very tough listen that.. I like Dylan and his content but the other 2 tiger podcasts are miles ahead than TTP. There is just no flow with that show, very slow.

I actually really enjoy listening to these two. They are pretty insightful and offer a different perspective than the Big Footy and Talking Tigers Podcasts.

Regardless of the platform, the message was loud and clear - Faull will be a forward of the future and compliment Armstrong for the next decade.

They do have their moments but those guys are still my favourite for a detailed game review. Anyways I listen to all three, can anyone get enough? Hats off to them for also covering the Women, frankly it’s embarrassing that the clubs own doesn’t.
