Lord Neville X Flash

Haha now that you mention it, he would fit in perfectly at the Dees. We need one more elite ball user to compliment salem of the half backline IMO. I would prefer Whitfield to Gaff, as he is still so young.

Interesting. So they did they sit someone on him, or was it a team defence?

Through thick and thin, this team is a team I've fallen in love with. We have such a young core and will be up for at least the next 4 years. We have amazing personalities like Jones, Gawn, Trac. Will be supporting these boys even if we lose by 500 and miss finals on the weekend.

Complete and utter non-story. They are doing these presentation to many, many people. Waleed was on SEN this morning and he got into one of the presentations because someone from the project now heads the AFLW. Que the unjustified outrage..

Agreed. Kelly very devastating when at his best, and Harmes has well and truly earn't that responsibility. I'm not sure how good Nibbla would be as a regular defensive forward, just because he is slight of frame and his contested ball ability isn't amazing. But Whitfield is as skinny as Jeff Garlett so nibbla should have no problem matching him for strength. It will be interesting if either Goody holds back on some tactical moves, so we have some surprises up our sleeves if we play them in the finals.

It's no secret that tagging Lachie Whitfield is a great way to quell the giants, he's an elite runner and ball user of the half-back line. I think Neal-Bullen is the perfect forward to run around with Whitfield and prevent his damaging rebound 50's. Nibbla is our best runner, and may relish a defined role in the team after having a poor game against the eagles. If Nibbla can stop Whitfield and hit the scoreboard we will go along way to beating the giants. Thoughts?

He is so young, just 21 last month, not many tall forwards have done well by this age. If he comes in his performance will not necessarily be rated on marks and goals, but his ability to fit into out system. Jesse has been slammed by jono brown for poor leading patterns which impacts the team. Positioning and leading to the wrong areas can cause inside 50's to be marked by opposition or can cause the ball to be kicked on your head (see heeney mark) AND it can clog space for our other forwards to lead. If Weid can lead at the right time and create space for TMAC, and bring the ball to ground when the ball is kicked to a contest then that is good enough at this point.

How good is fritta been this year?! He is on par as our most skilful/magical player and is pretty damn consistent for a first year player. And the best part he is only 21! Huge upside
