Think we've got a winner here but really we were just spoilt for choice at our pick.

I hope for a new look midfield going forward - Hobbs, Tsatas, Caldwell should be the backbone of it for years to come.

Hopefully 2023 yields that elusive BBMTM!
Think they will still need one bigger one in the mix.
 
Personally I'm prepared to see how he turns out after some time in a professional football environment before I crack it about what he may or may not end up doing/being.

Good luck to the kid, with the pile on the Dons fans give to our own players he's likely going to need it.
He's only just got here and you've got him leaving already?

Wonder if he can challenge Durham for a spot next year who i have in my best 22

I think 8-10 games should be the aim, depends a bit how were going

Otherwise hes probably onball in the VFL learning his way, nothing wrong with that. Hes not as ready to go as a guy like Hobbs
 
Well yeah I just said this in this thread so can vouch!
I think some of what I said Is snippets from reading your material too. So hence probably it regurgitates with your draft profiling of Tsatas. Yeah I’m intrigued now with Tsatas, I think cause he’s now not a guaranteed starter in the senior set up, it will be interesting if he does start out in the VFL. Which would be good for him, doesn’t have the pressure of having to contribute at afl level and can just dominate and work on his fitness/ physique.

Totally different role player. Durham is a winger who runs deep into defense to provide support. Tsatas is not that

Different players but play the same role early on for Tsatas

Some have said Tsatas is a good 2 way runner aswell btw, im not sure i agree from the limited viewing ive seen but these have far more draft expertise than me
 
Genuinley didn't know that. That's what I get for parroting off somebody else.

its all good, i probably would've believed you too if I didn't do so much SC/fantasy - hes also one you'd forgive for not tackling given he spends a lot of time forward but generally hes been okay defensively as well
 
Agreed.

I guess it’s a good thing his top end form had him considered a top 3 prospect for the majority of his top age year, he won a best and fairest while missing 3 months, went inside mid in the national final and got 30+ touches and had leather poisoning with the amount of touches he racked up.

Or doesn’t this count for some reason? Keep moving those goalposts.
Ahaha

If you want to talk up Tsatas at least pick one of his good games before the foot injury. That game against country was a Parish/Merrett game where they get it 30 odd times with minimal impact. He wasn’t even in the best handful of metro players that day.

Isn’t that just his pick 5 jersey. Every play had their pick, name and number on it.
Sheezel had 3 wardlaw had 4 and so on.
Well our pick 1 got #1 when it was open haha
 
I thought given Lloyd presented, he’ll likely get 18.
I like Tsatas having 5 for the optic and being in between Langford and Caldwell is also good. 18 should go to a tall likely Weideman or Hayes.
 
Dont think hes necessarily playing in a defensive winger role. Just a winger role to start
Yeh but durham plays as our roll back winger and works up and down the ground. His work rate is unbelievable. Don’t think tsatas suits that roll or you could even play it fresh next year. Can’t see tsatas flying above packs in the backline to help out defenders.

All wingers should work up and back
