Sims better be a descent player as that is a fair price that was offered I feel, unless we feel next year is not a great draft.

Shown some signs this season probably played more than he was expecting.

Ok

Was wondering which norf Whitlock

Because the Matt variety has played all year in the VFL apart from an AFL debut earlier in the year

So if it’s Matt , you haven’t been paying attention to him either .. as he’s showing plenty and most definitely not getting beat in NSW suburban leagues

Given the injuries Sydney have had and their senior 22 selected - there is a good chance he was lining up on non afl listed players in the L on the weekend and struggled to get a kick.

He has had his fair share of underwhelming games often giving away soft goals too.

Very early days but they'd be disappointed to not be getting the production of a Sims, Shanahann type when they are 2nd last without a draft pick.

He is behind darling who is 40, the Irish rookie, louge who the fans hate etc.

I don’t know what the original comment which kickstarted this yesterday was in response to, but just want to chime in and say Shanahan looks a good prospect for West Coast.

Maybe maybe not.

He is carrying more pressure than most.

If Richmond get a jet with the north first then media will be relentless unless north starting climbing the ladder soon
