If you read his info Joel Mac is one of his favourite players.

No-one can argue Cam didnt keep up his end of the bargain. IF he was paid well it's because he performed and because there wasn't anyone else there to take $ away from him. Hardly his fault. If you take out the football and imagine yourself in your workplace where management offers you good money because you re a good worker in a company full of average ones then good luck to you.

Brilliant effort Bhima Many thanks..

TJ finished in the Top 10 in our B&F twice repeat twice in 10 years (1st and 3rd). It's a damning statistic for a guy with such natural talent.
-
The club wanted Hale to play fwd - someone who could play "front and square' (I hate that term!) and that if they didn't get it would ensure it spilt to our crumbers. Seems like Campbell could play that role (as well as back up TMR).

Or shave or indulge in personal grooming....

Hmm played like that too!

Correct me if I am wrong but Rookies can only play if we get injuries? -
Remember Viney was a Coach at Hawthorn when Campbell played in a flag. I'd say he had a bit to do with that selection.
-
And no secret that BP has gone for pace with good kicking skills again....
-
As I see it Campbell was a bit like Brad Miller in that he was told to be aggressive and copped a lot of needless suspensions. Curbing that aggression weakened his performances. Maybe the club is confident he can play without the "unsociable football" mantra of the Dorks.

Daniel Nicholson Super speedy half-back with precise delivery who dominated the Victorian Amateur competition. Considered to have the goods to step up. 20yo 183cm 76kg Michael Evans Midfielder with good kicking skills whose talent is undoubted. Considered to have a big upside. 18yo 180cm 75kg Kelvin Lawrence Small forward with speed who improved as the 2010 season progressed. Had a superb WAFL under-18 finals series and was largely responsible for Peel's advance to the grand final. 18yo Indiginous 177cm 72kg Cameron Johnston Versatile player with no weaknesses to his game. A medium sized forward with the ability to play up the ground. Runs long and hard, with a booming and accurate kick. 18yo 181cm 78kgs

Rd 14 Daniel Nicholson Uni Blues Rd 31 Michael Evans Claremont Rd 48 Kelvin Lawrence Peel Thunder Rd 63 Cameron Johnston Geelong Falcons Rd 75 Robert Campbell Box Hill Hawks Rd 83 Tom McNamara Melb I guess we couldn't go a season without a Johnson on our list Campbell a big surprise. Premiership ruckman. Can he play fwd? Well done to Tommy Mac as well for perseverance. Lets hope he forces his chance.

Why would that be irrelevant? If the guy had an attitude problem then it is clearly in the club's interest to ensure he doesn't have it any more (if indeed they are considering taking him). Pretty relevant to me. Why do you think clubs take so much interest in a potential draft pick's family, schooling, leadership, attitude etc? Wasted talent is a cliche but true. There's plenty of it around. Hundreds of examples of talented players that don't put in and ultimately fail.

Really interesting to see our push in past few years for height, speed and skills with adaptability. Guys like Fitzpatrick, Watts, Jurrah, Martin, Davis are all super quick and tall. Could be a pretty frightening side to match up on in a few years. OUR TALLS..... Gawn 208 Spencer 203 Fitzpatrick 200 Martin 198 Jamar 198 Watts 196 Cook 196 Warnock 194 McDonald 194 Newton 193 Frawley 193 Rivers 192 Morton 192 Dunn 192 Davis 192 Bate 192 Garland 191 Howe 190 Gysberts 190 MacDonald 188 Jurrah 188

Cook was described by BP as a tall lead up fwd. That means we have Watts, Fitzpatrick, Cook, Howe and possibly Jurrah as lead up fwds. Do we have anyone that is not a lead up forward? Someone that can stay at home (a la Ben Holland) and knock the ball to our crumbers if they cannot mark it?? Hale was supposed to fit that bill.

Yeah me. They must type in the numbers on a screen that hit the pc's before they read em out or something like that!

LUCAS COOK n his own words What type of player are you? A mobile tall forward with the versatility to go back or play on a wing. Which AFL player do you feel you resemble and why? Brent Staker. Someone who is versatile but can play up forward or back depending on the team's needs and structure. What are your strengths as a footballer? I can read the play well and can play a variety of positions. Also marking and kicking at goals. What parts of your game would you like to improve? I need to improve my strength so that I can have more influence in a marking contest. Which AFL team do you support and how did you come to barrack for them? Western Bulldogs. My dad has barracked for them ever since his older brother played for them. I followed him. Who has been the biggest influence on your career so far, and why? My parents and brother have always supported me and come to games. They had the belief that I can do whatever I wanted to do, and football is no exception. They also sent me to boarding school to improve my football.

Lucas Cook is a 194cm and 82kg AFL- AIS Graduate, who is an extremely agile key forward prospect with a strong lead and the ability to take contested pack marks. He additionally is a good reader of the ball when it is in the air, has a strong overhead mark and is also very good when the ball on the ground. In Vic Country’s first game in the Under 18 Championships Cook kicked 5 goals (including 3 in three minutes) and also took 5 contested marks and collected 20 disposals. In early July, Cook was a part of Vic Country’s first national Under 18 championship win in seven years and impressed AFL recruiters so much he was named in the Under 18 All-Australian Team. In 2008 and 2009 Cook played for the North Ballarat Rebels in the TAC Cup and played in 20 matches and kicked a total of 19 goals. Cook is currently into his third season with North Ballarat and after 7 matches has scored 18.5 (an average of 3 goals per game) from 29 marks.
