Some of you will know that on the temporary board I named myself The Addison Revolution such is my belief that Dylan is going to be an amazing player, and feeling that with L.Gilbee being named All-Australian he no longer needed my support as GilboFan.
I had strong feelings that Lindsay Gilbee and Jordan McMahon were going to be guns- thats not to say my judgement of footballers is always right because I felt Michael Martin and Mark Alvey were going to be very good.
I felt Addison was sensational last year as a 1st year recruit in the VFL, was almost the first tiger tagged every week - he just gave the VFL team so much bite with his pace and agility around the ground. Immediately after the first intra club match Rocket commented that both Higgins and Addison would get opportunities in 2006. I thought he was handy in that intra club game without setting the world on fire and he far exceeded how good I thought he was going to be having come from suburban Sydney into the big leagues.
He played 1 hand game against the Crows, and 1 very accomplished game against Essendon last year and was then very unlucky not to play in the finals.
I feel like its time to start the Addison Revolution and the upside for him is enormous:
Ive seen none of the preseason, I am interested in those that have commentin on:
a) what type of form he has been in?
b) what role has he been used in? defence?
c) whether you that think he is going to be a gun?
Would be great to hear from some of the regular W-Tigers watchers
