Jack Darling

[dylsta05]

stil will get him

[pablo]

same goes for Gaff I take it then

[Joshy11]

Nah hes a gun and been training the house down and is ready made player. 99% chance of playing rd 1. Totally defeats the purpose of my arguement but should become first rookie to debut in rd 1 since kerr in 01 or 02

[Hawka]

Yer heard that as well joshy he will debut rnd 1 permitting injry

[juzzyj]

Yeah i heard the same , what a joke they should be playing all the kids and giving them game time. Who else will they play ? Nicoski and all these other old goats fair dinkum !

[pablo]

yeah I agree
if we're going to rebuild nows the time to play your young talent.It's only up from here but then again we could finish 17th.Not havin a go at your comment josh I've just got high hopes on Darling and hope he slots straight in.

Totally defeats the purpose of my arguement but should become first rookie to debut in rd 1 since kerr in 01 or 02. Eagles dont like to rush with their big fellas and im never confident in woosha giving youngsters a go early. Shep and stevens were great examples last year...played some very good wafl games and seniors were losing and still coudlt crack it early

This all makes no sense to me

1. its to early to decide if he will be playing or not without any match practice
2. Gaff is a gun but at 78kg i wouldnt say he is a 'ready made' player. sure he is talented and will get games but there is A LOT of work for him to do to be a good afl player.
3. Im no eagles supporter but didnt M.Brown debut rd 1 2007? and he is a kpp

Mitch Brown in 07 debuted in round 1... he is also a KPP (a big fella)
tho wouldnt call Darling a big fella at 190cm, but Woosha does not play his youth early, if he does I dont see him playing every game

[Joshy11]

Sorry forgot bot browny :/ and i hope they play him straight away

[Boomz]

If the eagles are really making that call this early then it's obvious why the club s a shambles.

[MTTY]

I dont see why he wont Worsfold said late last season he will play his youngsters more often now
