Who's ahead of him regarding those 12 players? After our top 7 or 8, it gets very thin very fast.

We can rate Lennon/C Ellis as prospects all we like but Yarran atm is far superior.

Here's 11 and I didn't even consider Lennon, ellis C or McIntosh

1.   Rance
2.   Lids
3.   Martin
4.   Jack
5.   Cotchin
6.   Maric
7.   Edwards
8.   Miles
9.   Vlastuin
10.   Grimes
11.   Houli
Houli  :lol not even close

Based solely on output and those currently around him, Houli is in our best dozen players.

Is that good thing or bad thing? Is that a poor reflection on our depth?

That's a separate discussion altogether a valid one no doubt but a different / separate one to this

Question was where do you rate Yarran in our top 25?

Based solely on output for their respective sides in 2015, Houli was miles ahead of Yarran

If Yarran (who I am happy to have BTW) extracts the digit and plays to his absolute best then he'd goes past Houli very quickly (obviously) but until he does I'd have Houli in front of him

We cant make a call on this guy yet. Yarran is easier to make a call on, he has a proven track record. How do you put this kid anywhere at the moment?

Gee Stalin, go get a r... or build a yacht until the season starts will you.

If he can bring that tackling intensity weekly, well we will have some.

What a crock of bs Craw, Saw Grimes go flat out into a player and do a mid air cartwheel land pretty poo then get up and keep playing.  The bloke doesn't balk it so don't make poo up.

Using a process of elimination we have some idea as to the answer


Chances are the lad won't be playing first ruck in place of Maric.  Or in rance spot
