If they never drop ANB, Aarts would never get a game with us. We have to try out Laurie and Howes and I think Woey will be better than him anyway. Edited October 14, 2022 by Redleg 1 Quote

durango 2,024 Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 I believe we will only consider delisted players to be put on the rookie list and I think we need ruck types and good tall project players since most midfield and small forward positions we have multiple players at this stage. 2 Quote

layzie 34,528 Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) I think he's got something but it wouldn't be MFC as the team benefiting from his services. Edited October 14, 2022 by layzie 1 Quote

John Demonic 5,988 Posted October 14, 2022 Posted October 14, 2022 Why don't we have a cage fight between Spargo, Laurie and Aarts for that half forward flank spot? 2 Quote

Better still why don't we delist every player every and just enlist every player that is delisted by other clubs, I reckon that would satisfy picket fence. 1 Quote

Before we try out anyone they have to earn it Laurie, Howes and Woewodin haven’t yet ticked that box IMO If Laurie can improve his fitness he might get a look next year - he does have skill just not convinced he is currently an upgrade on anyone in the 1s Howes I’m not convinced will make it - I know he has plenty of people here that think he’s going to - very happy to be proved wrong Woey is a good honest footballer - good enough to be a regular AFL player ? - next year will tell us a lot more I think Quote

He did ok in his first few Casey games before the stress fracture took him out for the majority of the season. What have you seen to write him off already? Quote

I’m not writing anyone off simply saying I’m not convinced he will make it as an AFL footballer There are hundreds of guys that a good footballers but never quite reach the level required Howes is neat in his ball handling and disposal but I he doesn’t get it enough at VFL level to suggest to me he can impact at AFL level Does he have any significant stand out qualities ? Pace , evasion, disposal , marking , physical presence? If he has they have been shown in cameos only hence - so I’m not convinced - as I said very happy to be proven wrong and we won’t know until the end of next season or the one after that (assuming he has no more injury concerns) 1 Quote
