As I see it, taking on players like this is simply a lottery, irrespective of reputation, age etc.
Give me a list of all those we have bought who have turned out to be champions or at least worthwhile. :lol:

maybe - we know the kid can play. but there is a risk, the way i see it he takes 1 spot on the list - a spot probably taken by a complete dud anyway - and he costs us nothing (minimum wage + performance)

at tops he kicks 50 goals for the year and plays 100 games.

i think he will get cold here though.

He's a high-risk player, but I'm not sure the potential he has is proportionate with the risk involved. With Cousins, for example, I accept there's a degree of risk - but the potential he offers is massive (and thus worth the risk IMO).

Would want Sampi thoroughly checked physically and mentally before he got even considered for a spot on our list.


Clueless and mediocre petty tyrant.

sampi training with Demons
Ashley Sampi will pull on a red and blue training singlet on Monday after an invitation from Melbourne to train with the club in an attempt to restart his AFL career. With the Demons' long history of artistic forwards, Sampi could just be the best small forward in the game if he wasn't habitually overweight. Instead, at 23, he was released by West Coast earlier this week. Melbourne has not committed to a contract or even the promise of an offer. If he is in the national draft, Sampi may be claimed before Melbourne gets the opportunity to call his name.

Goes without saying.

I'd also want Collard checked over as well.

I rated him so highly as a junior...something may well have gone amiss there that needs checking out.

Wouldn't bother looking over Richard Cole. Is rubbish.
