I am pretty sure we would have traded him in for both his on field and off field stuff According to a few of the blokes that go to training regular the off field stuff has been really good. So that's a really good start just there i reckon.

Is Caleb Daniel your favourite player because you see eye-to-eye to with him Dinkers? Oh well.

Well I didn't dare go the " Dinkers-Daniel" route.
And do we see eye to eye I did refer to him as "shorty"
But yes you are correct. Should have drafted Watson though.

Them some negative vibes man.
One thing that I think a lot of the footy world have forgotten is not just how well he can kick it, but how well he kicks it on both sides of his body. He pulls the trigger equally which is hugely underrated - it just opens up the field on both sides and give us more options.
There's some good vision of it from the match-sim around on YT.
Caleb Daniel moved 6km down the road from the Whitten Oval to Arden St in the closing minutes of last year's Trade Period and appears to have a new lease on life, thriving in his natural habitat across half-back in his first appearance for North Melbourne, finding a stack of the ball in a polished display.

Does he stand out because of how good he is or because of how shit the rest of the team is?

Pretty close to our best I thought. He is clean with disposal - which we knew - but he is also very clean with his hands. Collected around 5 handballs that most of his other team mates would have made look like the shit disposals they were. Close to immaculate. Going to be a very good addition.

If you're one of the 40 per cent of Fantasy Classic coaches without Caleb Daniel (MID/FWD, $514,000), it's time to add the new Roo to your side. He scored 100 and North loves the ball in his hands coming out of defence.

I think we paid way too much. but he played well.
His composure with ball kind of stands out in our backline....

He was excellent. Defended and tackled well too!

Whilst it did seem overs at the time, would you rather us have stood our ground on our offer & not have him in our team this year?

Never makes a mistake.
Been crying out for a player like him for decades
