Opinion Stephen Silvagni

[Jeremias]

Fair enough Jeremias but there seems to be this default position that cause he’s a Silvagni he is destined for our list. The lad needs to show a lot more is the mail I have.

I have no idea about Tom; I haven’t seen even one second of footage.

Just saying I wouldn’t worry too much about what he has or hasn’t done over the past couple of years.

A lot can, and does, change around that age.

Let’s see how he goes through the 2020 season leading up to the draft at the end of the year.

The member forum is going to be very interesting....

If you’re expecting anything to be answered about SOS outside of the current club line then I suggest you don’t attend.

I’ve got more chance of kicking the winning goal in next years GF!!

I'm pretty sure Tom was supposed to be the best of the 3 as a kid. Always knew he was going to be a shorter midfielder/flanker type.

Not the impression I got when Jack was on channel 7's Gameday a few years ago. Basically made it sound like his youngest brother was the less talented of the three but more fiesty that him or Ben.
Of course Tom was only about 12 or 13 then so plenty could change in that time but what has not changed is he is not as tall as his older brothers.
Expecting three sons to be all good enough to get drafted is expecting a lot.
A lot of talented fathers do not even have one son drafted.

It would be fairly freakish to go 3/3 with the Silvagni boys, you'd expect at least one to not make the grade.

Exactly

Dylan is such a legend these days. Between him and Dan Gorringe, you've got the 'taking the piss out of oneself' enough for the rest of the comp sown up.

Should have a gratuity warning ahead of that.

I hate that scene.

 

[LanceRomance]

I thought Ben was meant to be the most talented

 

[HaydossJ]

Tom very unlikely to be drafted. Not in the best 4-5 at Xavier for next season.

 

[teagueyubeauty]

It’s working....pick 135 bargain

Seriously though, Tom would react way worse to seeing this sort of talk than a bloody press release about a reason for moving on his old man

We shall see.
I liked what I saw in the small segments of VFL games I caught this year.
But with Liam Jones, Jacob Weitering, Harry McKay and Charlie Curnow almost locks for best 22 when none are injured he going to have to remain patient of getting a chance to get a go in seniors at any stage next season. If he develops more along lines as a key defender I guess when Liam Jones is ready to retire he would have the bulk of size ready after four or five pre-seasons. If he geta a game or three and makes debut in 2020 would be ideal and just renew another two year contract.
By end of his fourth season on list I think Jones would probably be about ready to hang up boots. Play a few games up to then when injury hits other key position players would be my expectation.

 

[BlueTongue]

Ben was meant to be “the one”.

He probably will be, but let's not forget who he has to compete with (5 Large FWDs) for a spot

Thanks Sos for the great position you have put the club in.
First and foremost, You are a Father of two, possibly more players on an AFL list,.
Its time for you to sit back now and let the next generation of Silvangi's grow and excel at the club.
enjoy your next chapter, but most of all enjoy the path that you have,
1, taught your boys to play this great game at this Great club.
2, excelled at your position of a Recruitment Manager.

GO BLUES.

Who knows Bobcat, Jack and Ben might even flourish not having to play in the shadow of their legendary father around the club.

 

[Mikkey]

I just heard that John Elliott defamed SOS on Tom's drive program and they had to apologize and retract within 30 minutes.

I only tell it as I see Gef!

If you can't laugh at yourself,
your kidding yourself..

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

Tom only just turned 17.

I wonder what people were saying about Cripps when he was 15/16. I am sure the reviews weren't great either given he was barely 170cm at the time.

He was still playing in state sides and hadn’t even hit puberty. Chalk and Cheese.

 

[ferrisb]

Call the club. Press 1 for membership. Give them feedback. I have. In no uncertain terms.

Like, DO something if you don’t like the situation. Don’t just whinge.

You have the perfect username to use this on...

 

[agro]

Still could be, seems a more natural footballer/mover early days than Jack. Big lad as well. Time will tell

When I say “the one” - I meant that Ben was always touted as the most naturally talented of the three boys.

But the sister could be the best of the lot of them.

AFL should throw every dollar they have at SOS to build Gold Coast. They have capital in gifted picks. Need their cap fixed. Don’t have his sons. 5-6 year build would see them with their best shot at sustainable success and see SOSs career out.

 

[Accidental genius]

Sorry if this is a stupid question but what are the chances of people like mlg sos liddle Teague etc having an account here?

Why would we want sos potentially competing with us and maybe luring/trading our players elsehere?

I’d suggest he does something outside of footy.

Hey Liddle, if you're reading this, go **** yourself, and get out of my Club.
