Goodes elevated to senior list

Re: Goodes elevated to senior list

Congrats to Goodesy! I like this move. He was ordinary last year at AFL level but very good at VFL level. He's shown enough to be elevated. Lets hope he grabs his second chance with both hands. We need a mature head around the young fellas.

He looks the leanest and fittest that i have seen him. Had a bit of the Dean Riolis about him the last few years, but has noticeably trimmed down. Hopefully it will help him to contribute at AFL level.

Re: Goodes elevated to senior list

The logical decision was to promote him given his form. A lot of the the players including the younger ones look up to him.
I hope he has a good season for us.

Need some leadership on the ground with Libba out.

He can play in a number of positions which I'm sure the coach appreciates. On top of that he's 30 years young as well.

He is ironbark tough and pretty hefty and therefore provides an alternative to a few other players for a midfield/forward spot. Don't know how many games he will get but he's done enough to show he is an option.

I'm really happy for him, and wish him well.

He's a talented footballer and with a lighter frame I think he can surprise a few this year with his output. He's also a mature body, and we do need as many of those as we can get.

When you think about it we've had pretty good value from our rookie list players.

Re: Goodes elevated to senior list

I am rapt for him. He seems a great fella and I don't reckon he would drop weight very easily so he has worked his guts out.

I thought he was near best on last week and a couple of his baulks were of very high quality(not easily taught).

I want us to be a team that competes to win rather than uses games as learning experiences. Make the kids work to push Goodesy out. We need competition for spots to improve.

If he is anything like his brother he could go on for another couple of years. He has got the genes plus he started later than most players too.
