Hard to say, he is yet to play as he is still developing.

You really do read moons posts with a fine tuned comb, don't you.

Yes and that's why I am constantly nodding off over the keyboard!

Jones is coming! Watts is a potential superstar. His evasiveness on Saturday took me back to Robbie Flower. Watts seems to do it without exerting effort. All he needs is more confidence to go all the way and start dobbing a few and he'll get SILK! Hogan will be! Wait and see. It's about patience boys!!

agreed Tyson looked good Sat night!

What about the Ox, Gary Lyon, Stephen Tingay and Travis Johnstone? Whitey was up there too until they changed the centre bounce rule.

I would say no but this argument has been done a few times before.

To me Flower was the last champion or superstar we have had, I'm talking competition and there are very few of these guys. Right now in the AFL probably Judd and Ablett, Brown maybe are it with a few others on the way.

grouping the highest quality players right now a superstars, i wouldn't even say judd any more dude or brown. for me, Ablett, J selwood and jobe watson off the top of my head.

I don't quite put the rest on the same pedestal personally. theres lots more great players from plenty of clubs though. like fyfe is right on the cusp for me, barlow, pendles, swan, mitchel, theres a massive group of them.

Dangerfield full stop, we need to go at him hard.

[Ted Lasso 19,318]

Getting Dangerfield would be massive, but we would need to pay way overs to have any chance

a mil a year plus and we'd have to offer them alot to make the trade happen

T Mac, and our first round pick is enough.

If Judd and another pick went for Josh Kennedy, a first round pick and another pick, I don't see why Danger can't go for a good key back and our first round pick

Superstars to me have shown it over a long period of time. Ablett was and still is, Judd has been and the others you have named are well on the way if not already there.

Unfortunately we haven't had one in a long, long time.

When is Taylor Walker out of contract?

Adelaide might well get Chip as a free agent and not want Tommy, then Danger might sniff a flag at the crows and not want to leave.

If Frawley ends up leaving it will be to somewhere like Geelong or Hawthorn, not Adelaide.

Danger is not going anywhere next year, he's still contracted. The year after he is looking for premiership success not cash, that will come anyway.

Don't be so sure, Adelaide and the Suns have both made offers to his management as far as i know, Hawthorn are also right in the mix but i reckon their senior players getting abit older i'd be more likely to sign with the suns if it was me.

yeh, i think this year, watts and tyson have the potential to get up into that bracket of 'well on their way'.

Same with me, but Frawley seems to me like he wants to stay at MFC but if he goes it'll be like former past players like Sylvia and McLean, instant success.

Good read, amazed how well he's already gone.

[Deez 298]

just an off topic note, i just saw a highlight from saturday night which reminded me of vinces long kicking ability.

he is so accurate from 50-60 out, its pretty incredible.

If he was a little more accurate we'd all be celebrating a win, he was very unlucky on the weekend not to have 30 touches and 3-4 goals and wouldn't the crows love seeing him do that for another side.
