Ah.   That old chestnut. 

I will ask you this.   If you can't  criticise the bad can you appreciate the good? 

And if so how do you know what good is if you aren't permitted to judge the standard if you haven't been on an afl list? 

What do you actually do at the football if you won't allow yourself to judge the merits or otherwise of what occurs in front of you?   

The only part of the opinion of a player I don't care for is where their ability is denigrated, they are soon found out if they are not upto AFL level

Not many, if any, on here have played at AFL level so to denigrate a player or their ability has always seemed wrong to me

It also seems to me that those who have played seem not 0to have made a mistake in a game

A lot of the pithy comments etc smacks to me as coming from a position of envy

As for Mclnerney, seems a good prospect, but needs to work on his tank by all reports, but most players new to AFL have to do that

Quoting this part to keep relevance to the thread. I don't have anything to add except that I am interested in hearing details and information about young Oscar (and any potential young Ruck/fwd prospects as I see it as need we have to address this draft). I would hate to see this thread derailed into pages of Saty bashing and wall p-ssing like as so many do. AAC, Penant St Dee, and anyone else with info please continue to feed us insights on players as I come to these threads because I am interested.   

 

It has been suggested to me that 204cm Oscar is likely to be drafted before Melbourne's first pick is called out at 47.

Here's a story in the local news on the young Casey tall - 

Scorpion Oscar McInerney, all 204cm of him, is attracting interest from AFL clubs

That's interesting, form my limited viewing I would only rate him a rookie chance at best.
