[Master Q]

How's this for our best 12 U24 players?

In no particular order:

Dom Tyson
Jesse Hogan
Jack Viney
Tom McDonald
Jack Trengove
Dean Kent
Christian Salem
Jimmy Toumpas
Max Gawn
Jay Kennedy-Harris
Jack Watts
Jeremy Howe

Obviously we're not a premiership side but that's a pretty good base i'd say  :D

Exactly my thinking. Also to note is that it covers most positions with at least one player.

Also add to that list guys like McKenzie, Fitzpatrick, Michie, Riley, Blease (will he ever break out?)...

Fancy people not thinking we have talent... however, a lot of that list is unproven.

Can't also help but think McDonald just stands out in that list, he feels senior to me  :P

Yeah... Hogan hasn't played, and Salem and JKH have played a handful of games (not to mention being cursed with the vest)  :P

JKH's vest annoys me immensely. Why? Because he is almost already my favourite player  :P that guy just took a hold of my heart  8)

Haha Toumpas, trueeeee.

What's happening with McKenzie? I always thought he looked pretty good, but only played like 2 games this year. Is he injured or just not making the best 22?

Became way too defensive under Neeld. Is working his offence in the VFL, but is close to a senior return. The worry is that when he tags, his opponents do not worry about him hurting their team offensively so they do not have to worry about paying attention to him at all.

Haha Toumpas, trueeeee.

Toumpas works in our favour.

"The vote shows that FF believe Melbourne has better U24 player"

"But you have Toumpas! LOL"

[GoLions]

Ah ok, cheers. Hopefully he gets a call-up soon :)

*queue tbag leaping to Toumpas' defence, as I sure won't*

But I guess he is still young...  ::)

I swear the name Toumpas sounds like something you'd name a potato.

I also think Cross has taken his role and keeping him out of the side. The guy kills it possession-wise in the VFL, but he doesn't have a huge impact with them... sure does work hard though.

The Dees can't even make a case for poor Toumpas.  :P

I would if I disagreed  :( the others might argue though

[MTTY]

I actually still rate Toumpas. He's exactly like Watts was/is in that he has all the tools to be an elite skilled AFL player, but

[kilbluff1985]

i think Melbourne obviously need to draft or trade a forward but they also need another 1 or 2 quick players like a Yarran that can play both ends
