Breakout years in 2014

[Ted Lasso 16,922]

I'm calling it early,

Jack Trengove

Jimmy Toumpas

Nev Jetta

Jack Watts

Sam Blease

tipping these boys to have break out years

tipping Colin Garland and Nathan Jones and James Frawley to give All Australian a big shake

Mitch Clark, Chris Dawes and Jesse Hogan to kick a combined 100 goals

[What 18,810]

Michael Evans

[Demon Jack 6,338]

Max Gawn

[McQueen 17,864]

Dean Kent to get some time in the gutz and kick 30 odd goals.

Building on what he showed this year and with another full pre season under his belt I think we'll see something pretty special begin to emerge.

Kent and Blease taking the game on and kicking goals sounds good to me.

Jeremy Howe, with good guidance from Roos, and taking the 4th back, will kick 40

Why do I cringe everytime I see the word "Breakout"?

maybe your 16 and have bad complexion

or ,you could have had hopes and dreams ruined in the last 6 years

option A is a bad guess?

[Grimseyisgod 378]

would love to see Dom Barry do something, he looks so exciting

[Grimseyisgod 378]

jeremy howe also!!!

[LegsLeoncelli 162]

Half the bloody list, hopefully.

[Return to Glory 7,750]

Michael Evans

Agree completely. And I see Taggert as being a regular but on the half forward line

[Earl Hood 5,789]

Half the bloody list, hopefully.

In comparison to the last two seasons what is our definition of "breakout"? If some players suddenly start winning contested balls, breaking away at speed and spotting up a forward lace out. That would be breakout. So it could be half the side! If we manage to set up correctly and consistently execute the point kick outs to our advantage that would be breakout to me as well.

[Je Roos Salem 661]

N.Jones to step up another level, Frawley to revisit AA form, Clark to play 22 games.

I agree on Watts, Blease, Jetta and Evans

And just to feel like we have more than one midfielder.

[monoccular 16,262]

I will give it one last shot - Colin Sylvia ? ;-)

Mono your level of support for Colin is truely amazing

This would make it his 11th "potential" break out year of his career wouldnt it?

If he stays I just hope he gets in plays some regular consistent footy to justify all the support you guys have given him over his long career. Good luck!

[Bitter but optimistic 21,369]

Jake Spencer gets very little good press on Demonland. I rate him above Gawn at the moment. In fact, given his tackling, second efforts and mobility, I rate him as numero uno ruckman. I'm predicting a breakout year for Spencil.

I nominate this for the worst thread title in history. It combines my two most hated qualities in a thread: unfounded optimism and unimaginative cliches.

Now, Now Fowl! You’re starting to sound like Moonshadow and you are far more intelligent than him (well just about everyone is I suppose).

A couple of points.

1. Without going through the whole history of Dland , I’m sure there are worse threads than this – in fact I may have started some myself.
2. As for unfounded optimism and unimaginative clichés – well this is the land of clichés. Ban clichés and you might as well close D’land – in fact close football.
3. Finally, if you think it is [censored], don’t read it and let the rest of us dream.

[Rod Grinter Riot Squad 5,636]

Tappscott will be the most improved next year IMO

Sylvia has had a good couple of seasons. Defintely in our 3 most damaging players and does not deserve that bollocking he gets form many at Demonland.

Sometimes jazza I reckon you've partaken in too much of Gellibrands market garden.

yeah but he was the No.2 draft pick.

I suppose we can't read into that since we are so [censored] at recruiting!
