I really rate Hore - super courageous and from memory he didn't make too many mistakes exiting out of the backline. 

Haven't really heard much about him all pre-season. 

Spots are tight down back but it seems Lockhart/Harmes is favoured to take his spot.

My thoughts on Jackson and Pickett,  both from WA are they not?   good reason to pick them especially if the stadium is empty.

 

But I would have thought they both need a few weeks at Casey then when we play an "easy beat" side at the MCG, if there is an easybeat side, they should be eased into the main side.   Its not as if we are short of fit players and have to play certain players.

Empty stadium   no pressure on the umpires to pick the locals, we might divide the free kicks. That would be good !!

It is surprising - he has shut down many more highly regarded players quite well - sometimes very well. He often gets in there, spoiling certainties, feeding out quickly and well, and running on in possession for the best options ahead. He also can keep pace with all of his opponents, shoulder to shoulder, step to step. He does not dodge the issues and contacts, at all.

Hore... and then he gives away a free kick.

I am not surprised by club's lack of support for Hore. He isn't up to it. If in doubt, watch his games from last year again and see how many mistakes he made.

 Iggest problem he is neither good enough for the tall position (third) or quick enough fir the small position minding either.

is intercept and Lever is that alone.

Marty is depth but Rivers IMO should be given an opportunity to commence his career at HBF for us, especially if his Casey form is good.

Just the same Locky should be in our 22 as his playing style gives us run and carry and disposal.

By end of season I will be surprised if both these players are locked in our best 22 and our defence is one of the best in the AFL.

On Hore, unless there is another spate of injuries that forces him to be in he only has the attributes to play Lever’s role so it can only be one of them in the team.

Is a great reader of the ball in the air and third man up mark, but things fall away after that where he is average to below average at AFL level unfortunately.

An in between size not big or strong or fast enough to play on key forwards, not agile enough for medium and small forwards, and his disposal and calm under pressure is up and down. I think he needs to work to be an effective lock down defender to be able to coexist with Lever.

A much better summary of my post on Hore recently 

Thoroughly agree and believe Lockhart and Rivers will be In our defence of the next decade By the end of the season.
