With welling ham improving maybe he won't be in the midfield more as first suspected.

I don't understand the hype with Yeo. I watched quite a few Lions games a couple of years ago and he never impressed me. Just because a player gets midfield time it doesn't mean they magically get points. For the extra 10k I would rather Seed who showed he could average 83 unsubbed in 2013 or even go cheaper and pick up Hendo from the Crows.

Basing your opinion of yeo at the lions 2 pre seasons ago seems like madness to me

However

Although I think he is vital to our Eagles team already from one match against indigenous all stars I have my reservations about scoring potential ... Nt giving up on him yet though

Job security greater with yeo than Seedsman?

He didn't impress me last year either. However I probably saw a lot less of the Eagles last year then I did of the Lions the year before.

Wow! Quickly became one of my most favourite eagle players ... Was just starting to hit solid form before a crappy little injury but each to their own

I've spruiked Yeo since last year.
I'm only going on what I can see with my eyes as a supporter and not so much with the stats.

But what I saw last year, was that he is exactly the type of player the eagles need in the middle.
Good tall athletic modern day mid.
Quite polished. Eagles mids have always been our downfall and it was exciting to see this type of player played on ball.

He was in my team before the shortage of defenders was even announced. Definedly been hyped since waters had an injury hiccup a few weeks ago. But I honestly believe he is the real deal and will average 90+. Breakout defender of the year...

Haven't had him yet and still don't want him, I can see 77/78 and the very Max. Although one of my best picks last year was starting with Matt Jaensch, I think I was one of the only ones to do it.
