I'd love to see biscuit push Hackson out, but can't see the coaches not picking him unfortunately.

Tucky will be fine this year, same old Tucky. Won't take a backwards step.  :clapping
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 guess that is what I am saying. I am shocked as well  :lol

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


Tuck is as robust as the China walls. Will kick on for.many moons.

Matt Arnott will need to push someone out with consistant performances if he wants to play senior football!
Time will tell who that is but I woundnt want to have a couple of bad games in the seniors.

Agree our overall depth is looking better every year

What did we all think of Arnot's game?

He had 14 disposals (10k, 4h), 5 marks, 2 tackles and kicked 1.2.  If he had kicked those two goals he would've been classed the hero.

But he didn't so I'm still unsure about the quality if his finishing.
He is a unit though

My main concern with Arnott is that it appears he thinks he can crash through all packs.AS a junior and built the way he is he might have been able to do this but he should realise quickly that at AFL level more times than not he cant

Surely you can't have Rance on that list anymore?

Has arnot trimmed down from last year?

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."

Arnot is an like an investment property.

Was "GOOD" yesterday playing in the midfield, head over the football at all times and tackling was good.

Apart from the behinds scored, he is a future inside midfielder that Hardwick would want.

Goal kicking will improve.

Judging by his post-match comments I would say Username had a hunge on Rance to top yesterday's goal kicking.  Media had Rance in our best, some even had him BOG but Username saw fit to can his effort and name Rance our worst.  I didn't watch it so have no opinion of my own but that's a wide gap in assessments!  Maybe he asked Rance for an autograph and got knocked back?

I think Rance took 10 marks and 6 were intercepts - basically saving us scores or inside 50s from Bombres.
Would've thought this stat alone kept us in the game during that 3rd qtr and therefore puts him in our best
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

rance missed many targets and turned the ball over all day again, and repeatedly runs in circles sideways and gets himself in all bother,,,, costs us too many goals

now the question is to all of you

DO YOU WANT TO WIN A PREMIERSHIP OR NOT

IF THE ANSWER IS YES THEN WE CANNOT WIN ONE WITH PLAYERS LIKE RANCE THAT ARE SO IFFY WITH THEIR SKILLS ESPECIALLY UNDER PRESSURE


TOO MANY OF YOU ARE HAPPY WITH MEDIOCRITY
