Rawlings latest comment on Danny Meyer in EOTT:

Played in a variety of positions, including on-ball and forward and performed admirably. Has shown terrific improvement in his three games at senior VFL level, with his competitive spirit a real feature. His tackling is equal to anyone’s in the team.

I hope he makes it. I always thought that he 'looked' a player.

I agree whole-heartedly with you wayne. I would love to see Danny come back injury free and show the footy world exactly why we rated him so highly when he was drafted.

Has the height, pace and skills to be a great player but just needs some games.

I think Danny is good enough to make it.

He needs some luck on the injury front though.

He seems to be moving well at th moment and doesnt appear to have any injury concerns.

I hope it stays this way.

He has talent, no question. It'll end up being luck more than anything - we need the footy gods to shine down on that young fella's body.

he laid a tackle in front of us on sunday and boy did the box hill player know about it  :thumbsup

made me think how agressive he has become and how comfortable he is with his body now.

Hes definately taken his game up a few notches thats for sure.

could be a bolter/late starter would work out great if he was although he's got a ways to go and theres a few lining up in the que now.

Meyer has ability, we need to see him over the rest of 2008 and 2009 before deciding if hes gonna make it.

sounds like he played as a small defender with coburg and had done pretty well....could he maybe be groomed into this role perhaps?...it's apparently the type we're still struggling with...think he's got the athleticism and agility to go with them...we'll see..

I think they'll give Danny one more year now that he is showing signs he may be over that hip problem and he's at least getting in the Coburg bests the past few weeks. Give him a full preseason injury-free and then it's up to him. At least we're now playing him behind the ball where he can play to his strengths. I also thought way back in his first year that he had the ability to push into the midfield as a chop out for the other mids.

I think Danny wont be far away from getting a game at Richmond.

Won the best player award today from Jade Rawlings and appears to be over his injuries. Touch wood.

Hopefully things go his way for a while. He has been getting better everyweek and has been a good solid contributor in the last 3 weeks.

Hear what you say although we need some "" bigger bodied players"" We have way too many of the Danny Meyer build.
