Played his best junior footy on the ball next to Rowell and Anderson.
If we gonna say now or never, maybe it’s in the Middle with Hayes feeding him.

The dream is slipping away... get match fit or go get a normal job
Thing is he's hired PT's the last two off-seasons so he's trying, I don't think it's a get fit thing it might just be he doesn't have the athleticism for AFL.
Anyway hope it comes together for him he's got a trick bag.

Not sure there is any point in putting him down back or anywhere else.
Its pretty simple, he is an extremely high ceiling small forward with extremely low fitness. He either shows he can make it in the forward line next year, or does enough to show that he is building and will get there in 2024. I'd rather just go grab a defender if we need a defender.

Could be a good thing for both of them, to see if they can cement a new contract - or not. Sink or swim!
Play him forward. Playing him back might find him some form but ultimately there won’t be a spot for him in our defence and we need more quality coming through in the small-medium forward positions.
Could have said the same for farrell.
But he's probably gonna play as a hbf this season even with our army of flankers

I like him but it's pretty clear that the club have entirely written him off at this point. Could've paid him out this year and picked up Magor in the rookie draft who is similar.
No point hanging on to a player who they don't rate and will not have a future if you have the capacity to pay them out.

I hope we don’t use anyone under the age of 25 as the sub. Terrible position for any young player loosing game time.
Hope we use it as a way to rest our senior players through the year and they can come on as needed.
Sam hayes says hi.
Fitness aside. What are his afl traits?
Evasive, incredible goal sense, strong in the contest, strong in the air.
The knock is he can go missing for weeks at a time and struggled to run out games
Faz had good fitness and weapons that could be used around the ground.
DFW was picked as a goal sneak - his ability to hit the scoreboard is his primary weapon.
He has a 87% win rate at Angle Park

Just saying that because he can't run out a whole game
Think Daniel Rich and how Brisbane use him and that's what we've got in mind for Faz.
We saw it in the last 1/2 of the season, it gets the maximum out of his kicking.
DW has a few hurdles in front of him and my info is the biggest of which is Bassett.

Fitness must not be that much of an issue then.
Would be fine with that... Nothing wrong with adding another string to ya bow...
*Just think we have enough small defenders we don't need to move him there as well.
