193 points in one game. Not too many other players capable of that.

I have him in, Franklin,Martin,Bennell,Tich.....no Swan unless he goes massive in Nab and looks fit.

I read earlier today he has been working through a calf issue all pre-season on the AFL site. He had calf issues last year as well which caused him to miss all those games. I had Harley in prior to reading that but that is now a giant cross next to his name

I read that too but listen to this -

Eade said there were positive and negative elements to Wednesday’s intraclub match.

"At times I was a little bit disappointed,” he said.

"I thought we slowed it down a bit too much at times. Maybe it was the heat. Certain individuals are starting to hatch the ball and not take the game on.

"I think that'll take time for us to get to where we want to get to, but it's pleasing they're getting the hang of it."

Tom Lynch starred in the first half, kicking three goals before resting up.

Harley Bennell was the best midfielder, winning clearances and hitting targets at will, while Nick Malceski looked right at home marshalling the backline.

He's still a lock in my eyes, keen to watch him work his magic

The thing is he killed it last year and then got injured. Calf issues are not good as they linger.

More of an old players curse he is young and seriously considering him myself .

If calf issues were why he missed those games in 2014 was it the same problem that hampered him in 2013 as well?
At 514k he must be a keeper who increases his SC average by 5 points + and plays 20 games imo to be worth it, he is an exciting young player but i am starting to have my doubts he can play 20 this year...still watching but out of team for now.

He'll go 100+ easy if he plays 20odd games. That's the only issue :(

Basically. I said he will average more unsubbed then Swan at the end of the season and I will stand by that

He was living with Hunt for a while, I'd be cautious in picking him.

Upgrade for me.

Looked damn good the last two nab Cup games.

Got a real gut feeling about this guy - he's back in my side for now
