Forgot about Hutchings actually. He should hopefully slot straight into Kerr's spot.


Just this bit Ric....Rd1 starter?
From what I have heard yes. Watched him dominate the WAFL grand final last year and had a solid year at that level when he played. I would speak to Ele or luvfooty though, they might know more.

Thanks Ric..could be handy... ;D

Had a quick skim through the thread and basically agree with everyone.

On Darling, I see him training with the midfield group at the moment purely to build his tank for a long career. The whole midfield talk is only partly true. I see him as an X-Factor for when we are 3 goals down with 5 minutes to go, we need a big body on the ball to lay someone out and force a ball forward.

The game is becoming more and more about versatility these days and with limited rotations, elite midfielders that can rest forward (GAJ/Swan/Jelwood), tall players that can play at either end of the park (Carlisle/Taylor) and indeed forwards that can run through the guts for stints (Buddy/hopefully Darling) become vitally important imo.

Hutchy is an interesting one. He is certainly good enough to get games in my opinion and his brutal inside game would free up guys like Shuey/Welly to run riot on the outside. A lot comes down to Simmo's personal preference I reckon.

Which Taylor is the tall at both ends Ele?... :-\

isn't lewis taylor like <180cm?

not exactly the epitome of 'tall' :P

Ringo

Lewis Taylor is only 175cm so not a tall.

Vinny

How many games do you expect Taylor to play in 2014 Ringo?

Ringo

No you are asking Vinny. TBH can not see him getting too many games unless injury occurs or loss of form.  He would be competing with Zorko and Green for the small forwards position. Probably not what you wanted to hear but bear in mind my opinion.

Vinny

Oh okay, thanks mate. Hopefully he can manage 1 or 2.

elephants

Yep, Harry Taylor from Geelong ;)

I'm sure there are plenty more btw, I just said the first ones that came to my head haha.

anybody thinking Wingard?
he WILL be a super player...third year breakout? possibly

elephants

He pretty much broke out last season. I'm keener to grab the proven premiums know and upgrade to guys like Wingard if they're maintaining their form from last season.
