I don't rate Vlas

[tony_montana]

I hope that too

I rate Vlas in our best 12, he will be fine, i trust he will find his feet no problemos, Love The Vlas

[big tone]

I'm more worried about C. Ellis than Vlastuin.
At least we know Vlastuin can be a pretty decent defender if he doesn't reach the heights as a midfielder as we all hope.

I'm not really sure I know what roll C. Ellis can play. I don't think he is desperate enough to be a defender, I don't think he has enough pace or total footy smarts to combat him not being overly quick to be a genuine AFL midfielder/wingman, and I don't see him as a forward at all.
Where do other see C. Ellis playing?

Good call BT,  number 12 draft pick, unsure myself where he shd play, looks like another one of our neither here, neither there, neitger fish nor fowl draft picks atm, but happy to hear about the team deficiencies he addresses from our OER guru football dept.

Just wait until C.Ellis gets some genuine midfield minutes . Injuries have hampered him but you'll see

The thing with tigger is that he hasn't really progressed beyond his first year efforts. He actually had an outstanding first year but hasn't really matured much passed that. He was heroic in our '13 final against Carlton.

He'll get there, quality person, finding his place in the team. He's not a natural defender, just a natural team player.

The sort of player who'll always be under appreciated - being a first rounder doesn't help matters.....won't quite be the Michael Voss mk.II some of us hoped/expected (guilty as charged) but very solid playing all three lines without being spectatcular, he'll get better in the guts & up forward and probably continue to plug holes down back when required as he did tonight to great effect after Carlton got on their mini-roll, players like that are worth their wait in gold & I suspect after he retires people many of his critics will reassess and realise just how crucial he actually was....but those who watch already do....

Oh and a lazy 12 tackles last night just quietly.....

Yer well said.
Not the sort of player to rack up 30 when in the middle but will do a lot of "grunt" work which can go unnoticed. Also just a baby in terms of experience as a midfielder at this level.
I thought he did well last night and if you cannot see that and would prefer to watch Houli than I feel sorry for you.

Worked like an arab donkey last night, copped a dirty shoulder in the face in the middle that the umps ignored too.  I rate him
