Been solid. Will be a good back up for Balta and Gibcus next year.

The goal should be to get young to be as good as peak Astbury. If the club and Young can manage that it will be massive for our backline. The onus will be on the club to try and make gibcus and Balta to be be our next Rance/grimes

Yup he’s copped his criticism this season but the past month or so he’s been the best of a bad bunch.

Id love to see the yaysers tell me what outstanding attributes he has.
Keep don't keep it has to based on some substance. He has one redeeming feature and as a defender you hope all defenders have it he has an ability to get a fist in to spoil. Thats his outstanding feature.
Just don't see any thing else in him that stands out. This bloke while inexperienced is not a kid will be 25 next and should be near the top of his game. Really hope im wrong but we are looking for A grade defenders moving fwd to build a team around and he will never get anywhere near it.

I think the bottom line here is about actually rebuilding and blokes like Young atm are stop gaps plugging the holes hoping we don't bottom out. His spot should be going to a talented kid. Trouble with that is we only have one kid and he is actually required.The result is we wallow in mediocrity.

His ceiling is lower than Gibcus.

Can't have 23 A graders out there every week.

He will hopefully become a consistently serviceable role player like Astbury. Balta or Gibcus will hopefully be the next Rance/Grimes.

I'd argue that Young currently offers more than our co-captain and as most would know know I have been super critical of him

But to his credit he has improved as the season has gone on

And if TBBH if Gibcus had of been available it is highly unlikely Young would have played much at all

Looks a lot better when Balta's not down there - they just seem to get in each other's way and confuse each other... :shh

I think he’s been a find.

Not going to be a star but could be a solid lock down type.

Again was our best key defender back there today. Our defence, both as a team and a back 6 needs do much work it’s not funny.

Larkey kicked 6 so I'm not sure he was our best defender. But I reckon he would learnt a lot today

His improvement from the first half of the year has been remarkable TBH.

Our biggest issue done back continues to be Grkmes

How many of those were young his opponent for? I missed the start of the game but didn’t balta start on him until he moved fwd in the second quarter. Then there was the ludicrous kmac free kick for too high.
