Youngsters at Freo

[TheHanger]

What are the updates on some young players yet to debut? Where is Viv Michie at, what about Peter Faulks?

My thoughts:

Viv Michie - I thought was unlucky not to get a game ahead of Pitt but once again Harves has got it right because has been very good in his first few games.

Faulks - Needs to build up his tank and his body mass.  I think he will work on that for the next year or 2 and then will be the replacement for Grover when he retires.

Faulks is already basically 23, i thought the point of an older player is that they are ready for AFL the baulking up phase normally happens around 18, 19. just a thought

that is strange why Faulks hasn't been given at least half a game yet

I see Faulks as a player for the future.  He is there to learn for now and then replace Grover when he retires - whether that be in 1, 2 or 3 years.

Just like Zac Clarke is there for when Sandi retires
