The kid can play.
He even looks like a footballer.
Wonder why it has taken this long for him to break into the side.

Yeah, so?

We played him one game last year.

But I am not really on about last year. He's a better forward option than a few we have been playing.

Looks like a natural goal-kicker. We need this type.

Picked he would be a player long back. He is modern day forward and endurance beast. We scored well when we got him at pick 30 odd. Bloody bargain.

He is only 19 and still needs to be managed through his 2nd year. No rush and is looking good for a big bloke at his age already.

That trade deal for pick 10 is looking better all the time.

Battle deep and Paddy up the ground looks the best option going forward. Paddy leads beautifully if only we’d honour his leads more often.

Played 1 game of school footy with my son who was in Year 11 whilst Josh was Year 10.....it was the first game of the season and they were playing in the B's ....he was everywhere capping it off with kicking 6 goals in the last quarter if my memory serves me well....everyone was like 'Who is this kid?', 'Where did he come from?' we never saw him in the B's again :D

How do they fit Membrey, Bruce, Battle and Paddy in the one forward line?

Trade Bruce for a mid would be my choice.
