Will be sub this week

Hope not. Whites willingness to take the game on was a shining beacon of hope when you think about the week before backwards sideways rubbish.

I think he'll get a full game and Ellis will sub if he plays.
Can't see him playing as sub after being so influential in the game.

I was wrong, but am glad for him to be the sub. keep up the good work  :thumbsup

Has pace to burn. Late in games as a sub he just trots past tiring players and uses the ball well.
Has become a real super sub.
Could kick four or five from half way through the third with tiring bodies around him as the sub.
Has great pace and endurance for those cameo type of roles. :thumbsup

May just be a purple patch but he oddly seems to be classier than in years gone by. Skills and decision making have impressed.

pace is still his only genuine asset

disposal is no better, both hand and foot, runs himself into trouble, doesn't get enough of it, nancy haircut

does kick the odd goal though and his name is greg  :thumbsup

I disagree. Skills look good to me so far this year.

I think his skills look the same as the rest of his career TBH, effectiveness somewhere in the 60s, I'd be surprised if it's not, and when you only get the pill about 10 times, play predominantly as an outside runner, he needs to be cleaner. Looks that way to me anyway, maybe he's going better.

Has played some good minutes though, enjoyed his West Coast game

Thought his Freo game as good too.
Consistency has been his main problem or lack of it.
Playing as a sub he has been able to maximise his effectiveness without falling away or going missing for large chunks of games as he has generally during his career as matches wear on.
Still remember how he sprinted off after his goal in the record breaking loss to Geelong in 2007.

Kicked the match winning goal vs feel

From an impossible angle.

Only to get screwed from umpire.

As per many others whom commented above me, I dig the pace he brings to the side when brought in late in the match. Although seing as he's 26, would he need to produce a stand out match winning performance (ala Tom Mitchell with 18 disposals despite coming on as a sub) or risk getting delisted?

Witty had 12 touches in 40 minutes of footy, absolutely should start on the ground
