If Carmichael does indeed excel in the VFL beyond TB's best corresponding performances, and TB continues to struggle in the seniors, then its a straight swap under any reasonable scenario.
I'm hoping for a strong, 4 quarter, 30+ possession performance in the VFL.
I think the issue is that they all draft too many 18 year olds and thus ask for too much patience. 40 18 year olds, rather than 60+ a year, would result in better lists and probably stronger comps under the AFL due to more kids staying in the game longer, as you'd have more older guys getting drafted.
Yes Jathanas , in the eyes of those that count , they deemed his performances in the magoos as very good , bearing in mind , with not much in the way of depth to turn to at the moment , he gets the nod . albeit the step up has been a bridge too far throughout.
I think the introversion of Gavin afflicts both boys, as does poor self confidence, which impacts their performance.
He had it, you want another?
I’ll be watching intently, is it this weekend I don’t want to miss it.
That's true. He showed some real signs of becoming a regular in the seniors. I also recall Tyler showing more class and dash in the past. He seems to be very dour and conservative in his whole approach to the game this year.
Fear of failure becomes all consuming and a paralyzing factor, manifesting as indecision, and skill errors on game day.
I didn’t say when.
