I rate Powell higher than most on here though. He is only 22 and still a kid

Powell has 1 blinder, V goldDon't agree based on current performances. Powell's numbers have steadily improved year on year.
I'm still not fully convinced on Powell athletically but he looks more likely to make it than Will at this stage.
Will has some serious work to do on his confidence kicking the ball and building his fitness.
Cats, GC and Freo games he was good but he's been inconsistent but numbers show he's been better than Will.Powell has 1 blinder, V gold
Coast. Best on my observation
, other than that, he’s been about slightly worse than phillips as a mid. I think Phillips is a better midfielder. But who would wanna hear that in this thread
Not huge statistically different. I reckon I could throw out stats.. give me a chance to compare the pairCats, GC and Freo games he was good but he's been inconsistent but numbers show he's been better than Will.
Powell averages 6 more touches, 4 more kicks, 2 more marks, 2 more handballs, 2 more clearances.
I'm a big fan of Will but he's got some work to do to show he's the better mid. Needs to find his junior footy ability and start translating that at AFL level. Big preseason required if he stays.
Season and career averages Powell is better.Visually, as midfielders. I’d take Phillips. Stats don’t prove anything really

Premiership sides have more than 4 midfielders, we require 7 minimum
Thats what I think, for a list spot and a rocket up his arse, the upside outweighs the value in a trade. Retain X1 yearWell ideally, phillips + powell are our tier 2 mids where they can hold the fort in the centre while wadlaw sheezal ldu float forward to kick some goals.
Trading out phillips would barely get us a 3rd rounder so it's a total waste so why not get him up to scratch. To do that, our developmental team will need to step up. We should never waste a top 5 pick.
In the longrun, if phillips is one of our bottom 6 players then we will be doing quite well.

The bad look for the club is drafting too many similar players.Keep him at club, can't let him go and then thrive, a bad look on the club.
He is worth the list spot, especially considering we have the likes of Stephenson and RHJ on the list.The bad look for the club is drafting too many similar players.
Keeping him out of fear it clicks for him at another club is just childish list management.
It's alright saying "must keep him", but he's got to want to stay as well. Only takes one team to sell him a vision and he could want out.
Preferably he wants to stay and we want to keep him.

I'm sure he does. But if he's on the fringes here, and another team is whispering sweet nothings....He loves North, for what ever that's worth.
So unless Tom Morris reports it, it's not happening?Well he aint got anywhere else to go and there's not even any rumour that anyone is interested in him.
That would be two then. As in plural. Even having two in a year is not great for his long term health. It’s even worse considering how seemingly innocuous the hits have been.Concussions?
He had 1, then copped a knock late last week.
It would be interesting to quantify the nullification he can bring and how that figures in these numbers.Cats, GC and Freo games he was good but he's been inconsistent but numbers show he's been better than Will.

Had a good game
