Looked really fast v freo last year... But maybe he was the sub

Like how chol looks like he's got amazig forward pressure. For 15 mins
Then he grabbed two chopsticks and stuck them in his mouth , pretending to be a walrus

So is this guy actually fast or was it all made up?
Draft combine results in 2014 suggest yes.
Came 3rd in the 20m sprint with 2.88 sec (Oleg Markov and Reece Mackenzie equal second with 2.87)
Came equal 6th in the repeat sprints with a time of 24.14 sec

The dude is fast.

Needs to show it on the field. Don't think I've ever seen him go close to burning anyone off. Always seems to have someone right on him

Looks to me more a 1500 runner than 100m sprinter. Certainly havent really seen him regularly in open space but when he has been you can see he automatically looks to lay off the ball like every other player in the side is programmed to do.

and that lay off is via hand
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
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."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Doesn't look like he wants the responsibility of getting ball and making something happen with it.
It's a shame because his first couple of rounds were exciting.
“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.

Your kidding?

Were you even at the game? Do you even watch? 

He wasn't great but if drop Chaplin, the Spud who does nothing, the GirlGriff and your favourite player Morris even before contemplating dropping Menadue.

Same could have been said for C.Ellis a few weeks ago but looks like he's starting to find his mojo.
I'm happy to drop him if you can tell me who will replace him?

Some people need a reality check. Reality is we are so far off the mark that we need to pump games into our youth. The older brigade have fired all their shots. They are not the future anymore. We need to gift games to those in the seconds to see if we can fast track their development. If we are less competitive, then so be it. Somehow I feel we'll be more competitive with the youthful enthusiasm that they will bring.
