Welcome Welcome National Draft Pick #13 - Jordan Gallucci

[Scorpus]

Dmac like role if you read properly

He can take over roles that Dmac has generally filled especially in last 12 months

And do them better , hopefully quite soon

I hope he can do more than just fill the role of "versatile plodder" and "jack of all trades, master of none"

 

[Danger in Texas]

Please don't compare any reasonable talent to Mackay. Such an insult

DMac with more hardness, willingness to tackle, goal sense, pure pace and athleticism and potentially more consistent footskills, I reckon

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Ian Perrie, Nick Gill, Kurt Tippett, Sam Shaw - Tregenza wasn't great, but if I think a bit longer, reckon I can push him out of the top 5

Myke Cook, Anthony Ingerson...

 

[Danger in Texas]

Jack Steven is a bulldozer , more in Dangerfield type mould IMO

Don't mind the Aaron Hall comparison from grundhog

If anything, there's more Jack Steven in Poholke

 

[Jeffcrowe]

This is revisionist thinking. Douglas was very good when young and first in the squad. His games at Glenelg showed just how good he could be.

We must stop judging his early years with his last ones.

I'm not saying he wasn't good I'm saying he's more a natural footballer than Galluci but Galluci has him well and truly covered in athleticism

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I know we like to think that the selectors and club loves Dmac and will never see his limitations

But .... To me this is very much a selection with needs in mind and to turnover guys like Dmac ( and perhaps Douglas ) ... They know what they're doing more than we give them credit for at times

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Sloane, Brouch, Mrouch, Ellis-Yolmen, Milera, Gallucci, Atkins, Seedsman, Cameron
We're in for a young and exciting group of midfielders/wingers next season

Don't forget Riley Knight !!!!

Myke Cook, Anthony Ingerson...

Ingos the one. Abysmal.

What role is that, the non-statistical role? Sure hope we don't have anyone playing that one next year

 

[Thetrader15]

Ingos the one. Abysmal.

Ingerson, I knew I had forgotten someone. Great memory

 

[Thetrader15]

If anything, there's more Jack Steven in Poholke

Seeing more Dane Swan in Poholke

Ingos the one. Abysmal.

Gee, we have had some terrible kicking key forwards

 

[Elite Crow]

Don't forget Riley Knight !!!!

They replayed the Walshy Showdown today and it was only Knights second game.

He was a pest for Port. He harassed and tackled his arse off, very quick too.

Can't wait to see him back, I believe we erred not playing him late last year.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Ingos the one. Abysmal.

There's a very strong argument for him being #1.

Did well when traded to the Dees as a CHB who handballed nearly all the time. Our problem is we played him as a forward who was lucky to snag a point 30m straight in front.

Top 5 of Ingerson, Gill, Shaw, Cooke & Perrie.

Geez we have has some lousy kicking forwards, which makes it pleasing about the current crop.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I hope he can do more than just fill the role of "versatile plodder" and "jack of all trades, master of none"

If the roles that Dmac have been playing weren't important we'd all just be happy to leave him in the side for being a good bloke

Of course the roles that Dmac plays are important , that's the whole point ... We need to get more out of the guy that chops out in midfield to provide a spark or pushes out to wing or takes some heat off Brodie smith down back to generate some transition

The roles are important , we need someone to perform them better

 

[Danger in Texas]

Seeing more Dane Swan in Poholke

Like I've said, I think there's a lot of Luke Parker in him

Love the mark he took in the square where tex gave him half a chance in a 1 on 1

And of course he kicked the important 'easy' set shot when others may have choked cough cough

Love his tackling technique - pin 1 arm and drive the opponent into the deck . Seen him do this numerous times

The kid is a winner !! He's got that thing you either have or don't

On Gallucci... reckon he could start the season in the side, spend some time in the SANFL, before coming back at the end. He's developed enough to not be completely thrown around, and can accumulate well.

Be great to see gallucci, milera, doedee, menzel, b crouch play almost a full season next year

 

[Pdub]

For a guy who has a record-breaking leap, there is a surprising lack of leaping in his highlight reels. With his abilities he should be jumping over the top of packs like Ashley Sampi

Would be great if all of them did, but I very much doubt that will happen. Reckon 2018's the year for a lot of our players (Greenwood, Doedee, Gallucci, Poholke).

3rd man up Those eastern Ranges players like that

 

[GreyCrow]

I think Blakey on Triple M will use Gallucci in an at Home with the Ricciutos skit. Imagine Papa Don Mario making Gallucci a ''made man''
