Actually was finally starting to look the goods that year. Tore his hamstring off the bone and never looked close to good again.

Yeah I thought the talk was about Blakely. Deleted that post now.Never him. Always Blakely. And everything we had seen of Blakely suggested that. Not our fault he went downhill faster than Will Brodie

Not going to happen bro. Chad Warner was known for accumulating possessions in his draft year and was listed as a strength. They need to make him a full-time mid for Peel to see what he can do.
Simpson is too small for that. From this weekend's game, Zac Bailey would be the one I hope he can emulate. Not sure Simpson has his pure speed though.

he's got super speed, he's got clean hands, a good disposal and can kick a goal. He seems to be just one of those that takes a couple of years to get up to size and speed, etc. like Mundy did. Then it's a future Rolls Royce. You can't train that speed, or teach those moves. Some have them, most other's don't. He has time. Particularly with our midfield as it is.

Tiz a bit of a weird one. I can't think of one thing he does not at or above AFL standard aside from just finding the pill. You have to think that can be fixed up a bit with experience in his role.

A bit like Darcy Tucker in that regard isn't he?
Nah Darcy didn't have the step and was not a great decision maker but Simpson has those things.

i get it. You're confused because of their haircuts. I suppose it is a change from the brocolli which is rife at junior levels.
