Theres not alot to say really. Hopefully it comes off for the recruiting team but going with 2 smaller type players today is a massive risk IMHO.

Some higher ranked still sliding, seems to me most clubs decided on who they wanted and didnt really look to hard as to who was still left on the board. Maybe we can get lucky and get some good kids down to train with us before the rookie draft.

Arnot? Well that takes the biscuit!
It's that simple Spud

i take it that means you are comfortable with the smaller type players we have?

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

My opinion is that what you bring in has to have the potential to be better than what you currently have. Im not happy with what weve got at the moment but I cant see Arnot or Ellis being any better than what we have at the moment. Its just my opinion thats all.

Not happy with our midsized mids either al yet we didn't recruit anyone new who was 185-188cm tall. So that's another year of Jackson and maybe Tuck in our 22  :P
