I've made a call about Matthew Arnott and I'm prepared to put my arse on the line and cop it if I'm wrong. I make the big calls early and I always end up right.

100% pure gold. ;D

High praise for Arnie from Dimma and Cotch after the North game last night. Impressed with his contested work in close. The ability of us to gain AFL-standard footballers from picks in the 30s & 40s of the draft will be a sign our player development is finally on the improve and the increased investment in that area by the Club is starting to pay off.

Needs to kick the thing more

His first thought last night was handball and som of them were poor choices

But having said that he certainly didn't take any backward steps at any contest

Still early days for arnot, 1k 7h ...hopefully if he can build on this we have a player, way off senior side just now though

My order would be

Tuck

Arnot







Hackson

Tuck can't play forever as much as we would like him to, so good thing when he does hang up the boots Arnot will be ready to step right in. Also, if Tucky goes down with injury, we have a good replacement for him now. Still think we'll see another 2 years of Tucky in the seniors, but Arnot should look to push in from end of 2014 and beyond.

So what your saying is we can actually develop a player in the reserves?  :o

Damn, what a luxury.

I hope it's not the case but I suspect Tuck will fall-away this year.

Possibly blokes like Arnot and co should be pushing Jackson out of the side.

If Tucky is as durable as his old man so be it but I think a spot at HF where he is good overhead and a reliable shot for goal is where Tucky can stake a claim.

If Tucky and A Edwards were played side by side In the same position Ireckon Tucky would be more consistent by the length of the Fleming straight. :thumbsup

tucky plays more inside than his old so his body takes more of a battering.
i reckon 1-2 years at the most will see him hang up his boots

And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Arnot just needs to continue building that engine.

Definitely should kick more, however his body positioning in the contest was good!
