I am not quite at the assessment of Ollie as you are, I'll give him this year to see what he has left but the chef may be looking to start up the burner.

I don’t think there was anything remotely subjective about what I said to call it an assessment.
Hes 29, and we know his body has been ****ed now for a couple of years.
The only thing up for debate is can he have a miracle turnaround and come back from the dead. maybe, but gee those would be long odds.
His form will definitely be scrutinized strongly this year and considering it looks like Rozee will get the captaincy, I hope he turns it around. We will see.
While he is 25 still only played 81 games. Still relatively new to AFL. I'm OK with it.

More like WD40 than WD28 yesterday.
Drew is the kind of bloke that secures you a premiership. Hew not necessarily the x-factor, but he's dependable and I reckon he'd get the job done on a big day. I could easily also see him adding another string to his bow and becoming a Michael Voss-like player for us.
I’m glad we didn’t get Jack Graham from Richmond . Similar to Drew but I’d pick Drew before hi all day every day

He loosens the tough nuts.
Drew has always been a very good kick into the F50 but yesterday, he did it on multiple occasions and also lead and scored.
He is fast becoming that player we can plug in as a midfielder, a tagger or half forward.
Seems to have been a tweak to his role - with more of an attacking edge. Could be because the opposition haven't need clamping down as yet, so will be interesting to see if he goes to an Oliver or Viney this week.
But his attacking side of the game has certainly impressed me. His overhead marking surprised me as well.

Willem Drew Supremacy 
Thought he had a better second half after a mediocre six quarters before that by his standards.
Was important in ensuring the win.
Credit to Wines too. Not anywhere near the player he once was, but he tried to grunt his way through it tonight.

Let's not forget he has an underrated left foot. Seems to kick more goals on his left than his right.

His tackling is like watching an octopus wrap up a mussel.
He kicked a goal today.
