We need to remember that we as fans see a player's tenure in terms of a career.Let's hope the "go home" factor doesn't kick in.
Which isn't what I said, nor what I was trying to say. I think an 18 year-old hitting the target at an above average rate by foot, who looks to be pretty a pretty penetrating kick of the footy too, is a good place to start. Not a huge cause for concern, but nonetheless something to work on.
He's a good not great kick, and most of his mis-kicks seem to not stem from a technical fault. I'm just not worried is all

Given he isn''t actually from adelaide, and is used to travelling and being away from home, I don't think that is an issue.Let's hope the "go home" factor doesn't kick in.
And as I've indicated, I think it'll improve. Seriously, if the worst thing that can be said about his performance YTD is that some of his field kicking isn't as you'd like then the kid is going okay.
Better than pick 6 in 2017 draft?!Best first year player since Pendlebury
Wow...forgot all about him...must have repressed the memory.Better than pick 6 in 2017 draft?!
He who must not be namedBetter than pick 6 in 2017 draft?!
Or just alter it to "best first year current player" and it still works.Wow...forgot all about him...must have repressed the memory.
I'll change that to best 18 year old since Pendlebury, then

Some People have very high Standards for Kids
I think we all want our kids performing to high standards, but there's a reason players are generally given that 50-100 game to establish themselves.
Best first year at Collingwood since Stephenson for me.Best first year player since Pendlebury

I think his output was better but I remember more people talking about Pendles because of the class he oozed even thenWasn't Thomas better than Pendlebury in their first year?
Pendlebury was always of a higher consistent standard right from his 1st game and he has maintained that gap between he and Thomas right through the years it is unfortunately dropping now but he has been a superb player for us. Thomas in 2011 got close to Pendles maybe even exceeded him but it only lasted weeks, Pendlebury had him covered comfortably the rest of their careers.I think his output was better but I remember more people talking about Pendles because of the class he oozed even then
The media has a hard on over Cox while his numbers match up very similar.
Don’t get me wrong Cox most likely will end up a better player.
Thomas never come close to this first year effort from Penders.Wasn't Thomas better than Pendlebury in their first year?
