Welcome Cillian Burke signs with Geelong

[Turbocat]

MOC was raw for sure but for some reason people around here massively overstate how underdone the Irish guys are.

MOC was basically the same quality of player as Knevitt, Clohesy, Neale, SDK, Clark, O'Sullivan, etc when they debuted. He was young and skinny and a deer in headlights but so were all the others.

Mullin was much more physically ready and closer to a worthy selection on merit. He's done more good things in his first 18 games (4 of those as sub) than most youngsters do in that time. But even after a couple of really solid performances in finals where he was preferred to Tuohy and Duncan he's talked about pretty harshly around here. Plenty saying he's still a liability and needs a lot more VFL time.

Id say MOC was the prime example before all others … how many games had he played when he debuted . He looked lost.
