Well according to your theory then Jeff Garlett should be in the VFL for the rest of the year.

God I hope BenKen and Jakes inclusion reads more about keeping them hungry... I'd have Harmes ahead of BenKen (assuming tyson and kent are locks) I like BK and he can do the spectacular and has great pressure, yet drifts out of games and unfortunately his height is problematic... a la Nahas and even C.Daniel... Harmes can win his own ball in the air, but disposal is average -in my humble opinion at least.

Why would you say Tyson and Kent "are locks"? That's a midfielder and forward to replace two defenders. Given that, I would have thought Tyson and Harmes would have the front running (assuming no other late changes). Or perhaps Spencer plays instead of Harmes if Watts goes to the backline, although I can only see this happening if there is some doubt about Gawn's fitness.

Our depth of small forwards is finally very healthy compared to a few years ago when we had virtually SFA.

Kennedy is hard and offers some good goal sense, he can also rove quite well and get those goals out of seemingly nothing.

He has stiff competition for the role he has been groomed for but he's far from a 'bog ordinary' player.

I'm intrigued by the absence of Bugg,  Had a much better JLT than Harmes imo, and was game-day emergency last week.

Tyson and Harmes. Kent would be next pick.

IMO, Bugg's JLT series was at his normal level, which is that of an average footballer. Harmes had a quiet JLT, but his ceiling is higher than Bugg's.

[Adam The God 30,456]

I think Harmes will come in to play a back role. His ability overhead will be needed. 

His kicking and decision-making may become problematic though.

[Satyriconhome 10,879]

Oh no what are the FD thinking, picking ordinary players with ordinary skills without checking with Demonland first tsk tsk

Steve he  is an ordinary player who is too short.

At AFL level you have to be very good if you are small.

very good he ain't.

After reading some of the  threads on here, you'd think that was all we had.

I'm glad you also bolded the word assume - devil is in the detail of that word - so no response required from me...

Conversely, some posters can't identify a player with ordinary skills.

It's OK to have an opinion on footy and communicate it Stalinyrconhome.  

It's even the reason some of the filthy demonlanders come here.

I have a yearly subscription, but believe you can do by shorter periods. They also have an App. Works well for the most part.

Harmes for mine. 

Despite all else, I like his attack on the footy and opponent.
