Summary
2010 was the first year Tom really had a chance to show everybody what he could do. He did show us what he is capable of and we like what we saw.
Rockliff saved a lot of coaches in '10 with inconsistent forwards creating issues he was there to catch those that fell.
But, will coaches have faith in him in 2011?
Verdict
Even though it will be his 3rd year in the AFL, it will be similar to his 2nd because of his lack of opportunities in '09, and the second year blues plus a very high price tag makes me steer clear of him.
But, the real question is, will you be picking him?

yeah, serious doubts depending on how brisbane/rockliff goes in preseason

Cruiseon


Rule of thumb, say no to 2nd year players.

That said it was lovely to have him from round 1 in 2010.

Actually BratPack...this would be Rockliffs 3rd year. He didnt play much in 09 for some reason. So I think he is worth a punt.

yeah i dont think so, he wont fit into my team but he should be a reliable pick.
