24 & 23. I was a bit surprised by that myself when I went looking.Didn't realise Newman and Fox were mature. I stick by my assessment of everyone else.

Not many rate florent
Let's hope he isn't a vespremi or lamb
I'm not sure what games people are watching that don't rate him...he has shown plenty I reckon.
The only similarity between Florent and Lamb or PV is his physical size...he has plenty more heart than either of those blokes.
I don't at all from what I have seenNot many rate florent

its more that he goes missing and I was under the impression he had pace which I am yet to witnessPeople draw the comparison because of his physical stature
He's got a bit of toe, but he's got nothing on Hill, Rohan etc. Even Towers is quicker.its more that he goes missing and I was under the impression he had pace which I am yet to witness

AgreedYeh he looked positively pedestrian when he ran down Johannisen.
We are seriously expecting way too much of these kids.
Florent goes missing
Hayward's not built enough
Foote lacks composure
Dawson did nothing
Marsh's skills are shit
wtf? None of our guns were guns from the same stages of their career. We're talking about guys who haven't even played 10 games, some haven't even played five. The games they have played in have been scrappy slog-fests and have been put under the pump because our senior players have not performed and led by example. Florent, Hayward, Foote, Newman, Dawson and Fox have never, ever played in a game where the Swans performed at the Swans usual standard. As I said, when Hewett and Papley debuted last year, it was a NEAFL-standard game. Collingwood applied no pressure at all and were barely an opponent for the first three quarters. Of course they were going to get confidence from that and build on it. How are we meant to expect Florent and Foote and co to play with confidence and be clean and skilful and smart when they are being hounded by the opposition every time they touch the ball, in games where everything they do becomes that much more important because of the shit score-line?
A lot of players look good right at the start then diminish; a lot of players have the opposite, they start off showing nothing then gradually become stars. Let's just wait and see, will be a fair while before we can make conclusions about any of these kids.
Apart from Heeney - he was a gun from day 1
No and you're kidding on Hayward, he's going to be a star.Assime you had Rose and Vezspremi marked down for long careers?

No, clearly more than me.By people , you mean you.
