List Mgmt. Welcome Tom Lamb Pick 32 2014 Draft

[Euro Star]

If he becomes a genuine midfielder I would agree with you. But for me I would take the player with the midfield potential.

I'm not writing Lamb off by any means Im just explaining why it's too early for the comparison.

I agree it's far too early for comparison, and while we've been happy with what Lamb has shown so far, Freo supporters have been very happy with what they've seen of Blakely at training.

I personally don't think Lamb will be a genuine mid but think he can still have a big impact as a utility/forward.

 

[KevinTaylor]

Thats where his grandfather played with so much success. I'm excited, shame I cant watch later today.

Hi Kwality, did you see Cooper play?
My old man was part of the furniture at Swans back then and his recall (he's getting on though!) was that Lamb looked heaps like his GDad and we will be very happy if Lamb is as good, but he thought Cooper swapped between the ruck and CHF. Apparently he used to cop a heap of shitt about the size of his nose.

His father wasn't a bad player either.

There was better news for Fremantle on Saturday, with the club’s top two draft picks Lachie Weller and Connor Blakely starring with 51 possessions between them in their first games for Peel.

The 19-year-olds are surging into contention to make their AFL debuts this season, with Blakely, taken at No.34 in the national draft, winning a game-high 10 clearances in his 26 disposals.

First-round pick Weller had 25 touches, with the duo’s big numbers coming despite rotating heavily and the quarters being shorter than in regular season matches.

Hopefully Duggan and lamb can rack in numbers like these

Lamb had 14 disposals 6 marks and a goal at afl level playing as a forward .

Are we really doing this? We're going over the 2014 draft again? less than one month from the start of the home and away season?

Way too early to judge. You could probably review the 2012 draft this year. Lamb will take years to develop.

E-Mac's injury has destroyed our will to live. We may as well do this instead.

It does seem like everyone's jumped on the self destruct button a little too early. The season hasn't even started yet. Its often situations like this (E-Mac) that cause something or someone new to emerge and stake a claim at the top level. Lets wait and see what happens as the season unfolds.

Only on TV with the Saints - in WA the Saints premiership was well received. Cooper spent a bit of time at Swan Districts at the end of the 60s & he wasnt as dominant as the 66 GF. Seem to remember he was ill for a period that effected his career. Yep, the nose did feature in the banter. As I remember Cooper changed on a half forward flank & was a 60s ruck rover.
Yet to see Lamb play in the flesh, & he seems a normal build, Coops was light, really lightly built & made up for it with skill & lots of it.
2015 & Tom Lamb.

Darling came straight in & stayed there, you are selling Lamb short whilst admitting any young kid wont hit his straps till the mid 20s.

Tell me.

You're injured AGAIN?!

You're injured AGAIN?!

Tom Lamb is fine.

No he won't he will play every game this year and go on to be as good as Wayne Carey!

I bet if we got Blakely, and Freo got Lamb you'd be saying, 'oooh Lamb looked really good v Port, 6 marks and 14 touches in 60% game time. I hope Blakely can get stats like that seeing as he had two touches in a half of footy against Melbourne'.

I reckon they're both going to be good players.

Lamb i agree could be our breakout star this year........but as a backman yeah nah.

 

[Johnno22]

No he won't he will play every game this year and go on to be as good as Wayne Carey!

No. He will play more than every game and be better than Wayne Carey.

Doesn't strike me as the accountable type.

Sheppard will look after Lamb

Wouldn't want the Butcher playing on him when we play Port again.

Haha yeah but Lamb has looked good for us at times too, so we'll just have to see how the season unfolds.
