Why do we always let these gun players go

Our recruiting sux, we let go of the wrong players and hold on to the duds like Riewoldt.

Krak will come back and bite us big time when he gets drafted by Port Adelaide.

we should get a compo pick if he gets drafted, or at least some t-shirts from Wooroloo Prison

well done on the sandover krak  :thumbsup

always thought it was his application both mental and physical that let him down at AFL level, be interesting to see if he can make the step back up

worth a spot on someone's rookie list as much as jpod or relton roberts

Actually he needed to increase his speed and work rate. Hopefully he's done the 2nd, but the 1st is genetic and he simply doesn't have the speed to be a small forward. Sure he may be able to play midfield in the WAFL now with increased fitness, but at his age can he step up another level of fitness to play midfield in the AFL? I doubt it.

speed and work rate

ffs work rate is all to due with fintess attitude and mature

speed , u r a tool, he was not slow, he just made it look easy as he had time, all  guns have time, he was silky and the ball stuck to his hands

guys who can read the play and understand the game dont have to be speedy gonzales

very very slow and for his position ie crumbing fwd you need to be explosive, he ain't. No way we should even look at him,

as MM said, has found his level

I'd say fitness is due to work rate, but not vice versa. To get fitter you have to work harder, it's about pushing yourself to the limit.

Very very slow, accellerated like he was wearing ugg boots in mud

I haven't seen many slow small forwards play the game
