Both progressing nicely IMO, I don't have either on our top 10 prospects but I certainly wouldn't be worrying about them just yet.

It's also worth noting that Eli gets a lot of attention in the VFL, more than I would have expected for this stage in his career.

Membrey is a really talented player who has a great opportunity for a long career. He applies really good pressure, he seems to be able to trap the ball really well also. At the moment he just seems to be lacking confidence, if he can start holding his marks and converting his opportunities he could...

No but I think he did pay the high tackle against Newnes.

Hate to stick the boots into an easy target but Gilbert undoes his own good work, gives us nothing over a Shenton let alone giving a chance to Goddard or Lee.

Shattering, the free kick against Newnes was the difference. Hate seeing the umpires cost us a game.

Gilbos a great kick, just hit a man right on the chest directly in front of goals.

If somebody could kick it within 30 meters of him it might improve.

Just waiting for Richo to pop in with how "unbelievable" his performance was.

Did I hear BT say that Paddy Mac played a blinder for Sandy today?

He has had a few good games this season, he is certainly gifted but between his endeavor, his durability and his inconsistency he is unlikely to ever put it all together.

Similar player to Zac Clarke IMO but probably not quite as good.

Rhys Stanley will never have a good season, he's not up to it.

Will have a good game here and there but I would be surprised if he is still on an AFL list in 3 or so years.

This bloke would still be our CHB were it not for that broken leg and probably would have picked up a couple of AA selections.

Like too many others from that era he was ruined by injury.

They're doing a good job of getting the fans on board that's for sure, so much positivity about.

Glad to see Ross get on the board, he's shown some good signs.

Such a shame, he's a great player to watch as is Sinclair.

Only off field issues I can remember with Armo was his involvement with the school girl a few years back but he wasn't to know she was a fruit loop. I think he's pretty much been a model citezen since arriving at the club. Jack Steven has caused more trouble but he seems to escape the troublemaker t...

Armitage now but I wouldn't rule out Newnes in a couple of years.

I have them as our back flankers for the next 5+ years. I rate these two so highly.

Weller can't go anywhere IMO, too valuable as a tagger and provides real grunt and is a bit of an enforcer too. he also has a good goal sense. Ross is competing with Dunstan for that last spot in the middle, I wouldn't mind giving them each a spell in the forward line to see if they can make a bit o...

I have really high hopes for DMac, he's been compared to so many great players but the one that stands out for me is Goddard, if he could be anywhere near as good we would have scored a huge bargain.

Looks like it will be Saad that is demoted instead.

I doubt Lee will play 25 games for us let alone a hundred. I think they have finally got some performance at VFL level from him. If he gets a foot in the door he looks like he might be a keeper. I imagine he's being groomed to take Fishers role ATM. Fisher was also a forward who went back. He has b...

Oops just realised I posted the same as p66, could have just quoted :p
