That's setting a very high bar though, especially considering he wasn't a top ten pick.
I'd be interested in your view on Oscar Allen re: midfield?
Still growing - KPF for me. Flexibility to run through the middle.

Agree with basically all of this. What are your thoughts on Watson? Sadly, still strikes me as a bit of a long shot.Currently i see Venables and Cole as the best young talent we have prior to this draft.
Never rated the Partington pick. Have always thought his projectory as an AFL footballer is very low as he's not blessed with any particular attribute and his disposals have minimal hurt factor. Still want him to continue being played and developed though, i like the character of the kid.
Mincho isn't entirely wrong with Sheed. Isn't going to be a crap player, but he's not a world beater. Spud is going too far though.
Not holding my breath on Rotham. Mutimer and Karpany, meh.
Good young player, showed some signs even at 'AFL level' in that nab challenge game.Agree with basically all of this. What are your thoughts on Watson? Sadly, still strikes me as a bit of a long shot.
He's a footballer. Natural smarts. Ok legspeed - makes good decisions.
Sheed is a one trick pony who, no legspeed and platued in his 18's year. One of the dumbest recruiting decisions I've seen.
Good young player, showed some signs even at 'AFL level' in that nab challenge game.
Haven't forgotten his first 4 weeks in the WAFL yielded an average of 26 touches and 5 tackles a game either.
Rookies are allowed to play from round 1 next season right? So you'd think he's surely going to feature at some point in 2018 which should show us more.
Free hit that pick anyway, naturally people have low expectations when it comes to CAT B rookies and the likelihood of them making it. I'm certainly not going to be expecting Watson would ever play more than 10 AFL games with our development of young players and hit rate with speculative picks.
I think Watson is a gun.Reads the play well,makes good decisions,has a left and right,tackles ferociously and when getting to a contest is usually in position "A".Pity he got injured when he did.Sheed is a very handy footballer,great decision maker / kick,got some nice candy which is becoming increasingly important as the game gets tighter in close.My biggest knock on him is that when the team comes under pressure he doesnt lift.He needs to now step up and show leadership and fight as per priddis but with more weapons.I really dont rate Partington that highly.Hope im wrong.I suspect there might be quite a few strings to Watson's bow. I'm looking forward (in hope) to seeing more of him, and seeing him develop into the player that he could become.
I'd argue Sheed has gone past the likes of Martin and BontempelliYou don’t need to be at that level to be a big time player in a premiership. See: Embley, Pickett, Johannisen etc.
Sheed is a very solid player who has performed well when given extended time on ball. I expect his improvement to continue now Priddis has retired.
Come onnnnnnI'd argue Sheed has gone past the likes of Martin and Bontempelli
well he performs better in finals
That's not true either.
Let's see how it pans out.
"Carpe diem"is the Latin translation for Seize the Moment.and another question is how good would Sheed be now if he didn't kick that kick, or came off-ground like he and Ryan were meant to and wasn't in the last passage of play?
how would we now rate him?- a solid end to a patchy year?
Just putting it into perspective, not dumping on him...
Or more often used as 'seize the day' (or the moment or the opportunity)"Carpe diem"is the Latin translation for Seize the Moment.
Careers can be made or broken in a single second. and that second can create a legend.
Dom Sheed you're a Legend.
Put it this way - I don't see Sheed every reaching the echelons of a Martin/Bontempelli/Mitchell etc.
He'll be a good player, not a great player, think all premiership sides have a "star" that takes games by the scruff of the neck, when it counts.
In case you’re wondering, it’s planned out pretty ****ing nicely!No doubt. Let's see how it pans out.
Subscribing - some absolute classic calls.
The real question is “ did Micho die inside when Sheed kicked that goal?”
