He will learn, I hate it when he overestimates himself and gets caught trying to break through but I guess as he gets older and stronger it will happen. He's got some faults but they can be ironed out.

Whatever the case it's great to see we have drafted some quality, I was getting sick of seeing most other clubs getting good players at both ends of the draft whilst we struggled to get anything good with high picks. The choice of JKH was inspired and this kid will be a star, although I'm not sure where he will finish up playing, he can just about play anywhere, forward or back or midfield. Tyson, Salem and JKH, then throw in Vince, Cross, Michie and Riley and you have 5 long term and 2 teachers all in the one draft. Of course you have a few young kids as well, Hunt, King and Harmes; you have to wonder where we'd be if Roos, Taylor and Viney had had the opportunity to do this last year and the year before.

In all the excitement Jack Viney is slipping under the Radar, along with Nathan Jones.

I guess the best thing to come out of all this is that we now know we don't have to finish last to build a side, we now have people in place to pick good talent all the way through the draft and others in place to develop them. Dom would have been a good player even in our old system but now he will be an A grade player because of our excellent coaching panel.

Once his short game improves a bit he will be a complete player, that will come and it will improve those around him. Wow, we've got a player in Dom Tyson.

Quality young man who will be a very good player for us, some of his ball handling is exceptional and if he's got a bit of confidence in his ability then all the better. Just on Bob Murphy, it surprised me to see him run away from JKH I didn't realise that Murph was that quick.

Dom has a great left foot but it let's him down a bit when he has to kick under 30mtrs; when he has a ping at goal from outside 50 you can almost back it in.

I've tried to respond to this thread many times but it's been too hard, so I haven't but I join in all those that express their sorrow at two shed's passing. It's a horrible disease and as you get older you find it affects your family, your friends and those that you know on a casual basis, every time you have to take your loved one to the doctor you fear the worst and hope for the best. Enjoy your life it's only temporary and somewhat fleeting.

The fact that Jetta was our last pick in the draft would indicate to me that the clue don't expect a lot from him. It would seem that he will have to show a lot to get a game, and a lot more to get another contract next year. I like Nev, as do most on here, but this is a business and he hasn't shown enough in the time he's been on the list.

Welcome aboard tbf, not the same level of personal insult here that there was there. Surprised it took you so long.

Too many people think that because a player bursts on to the scene he will inevatabely fade and the sure and steady will come through in the end, well that doesn't always happen. Sometimes a player bursts on to the scene because he's a good player and it may surprise a few but these players can actually get better too, it's not just the sure and steadies that go on to be good footballers. God forbid we'd pick a player that's ready to play when we can get one that's got a lot of development in him. There has to be common sense used and a player like Wines screamed "pick me". We passed over a player who is and will be an excellent player, for another we hope we can develop in to one; let's just hope they haven't stuffed this one up too.

I have no problem with people having a differing opinion than me, I enjoy debating them, it would be a fairly poor forum if we all agreed. I notice you had no answer to my other points, I guess you'd prefer just to have a go at me instead; that doesn't surprise me at all.

For your sake I hope you are a bit smarter by then, though I doubt it. No need to reply you are about to join the other idiot on my ignore list and you have to be pretty stupid to get on there.

I guess that those who have played at the highest level and are now commentators, wouldn't have the same level of understanding of the game that you have. Wines is like any first year player, he will have good games and not so good games and he will not necessarily play every minute of any game so it doesn't surprise that he will be sub or even miss a game here and there. He is playing in a top 8 side and has played all games so far, Jimmy is playing in a [censored] side and has missed a few; I think I know who has the runs on the board so far. BTW if you can't cope with the Wines/Toumpass comparison, don't read any of the posts that mention it, simple really.
