leave it to deever 17,614 Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 I hope he will become the champion supporters are claiming he will be. If J viney and Gus hit their best then we have a very promising midfield.

Having said that I do think he will be one of 3 future champs for us provided we can seal the deal with Hulk post 2017. However, being a wounded warrior over many decades I tend to take the "seeing Is believing" route nowadays Rusty normally I'd share your outlook and of course we have be careful not to place any undue pressure on him, but despite what he said in the article he does have swagger and confidence, and when you combine that with his natural abilities I honestly feel he will get to that game breaker level. I think some of the pumping of his tyres at this stage are a bit premature, with articles and the way commentators gush over him, but just as people are sick of BT and "The Package" I think other teams fans will get sick of hearing the commentators go nuts over him.
Biffen 12,949 Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 I'm expecting that he will be on the LTI list any time soon so I refused to get attached to him.

If J viney and Gus hit their best then we have a very promising midfield. I think we'll need a lot more than Viney and Gus hitting their best. As good as Viney has shown this year, and may continue to show. I don't think he has a higher ceiling for improvement as other potential a-graders in the AFL because I feel he has only one gear at the moment, and that's full throttle. Which is fine, we definitely need an aggressive barometer as an inside mid and a spirited player, but we also need footy smarts, composure (Knowing when to not rush in) and a high amount of skill with the possession. I might be wrong but I can't see him being an elite of the competition like Petracca might be, and will Petracca be in the midfield or up forward? Oliver is the wild card

I suspect Biff probably has a few more years behind him Petracc (with associated battle wounds)

We've all been hurt so many times, us mentally and then the poor buggers out on the field. I think he's preparing for the worst so he doesn't get hurt again!
