    i was impressed with his debut. Lots to learn but plenty to work with

        He hadn't played a lot as a key defender even in the WAFL. Great first up performance. Really liked his kicking and marks.

                Centre HB for mine. Dad will take care of full back. Morris & Cordy on the blokes their own size and Hamling & Roberts to fight with form to get into it.

                    Sounds like a strong set up to me.

                        Funny how it turns huh? That's leaving Roughead rucking and not landing Hooker or Hurley!

                            Great first up effort.

                            Took some good marks and his kicking was quite assured, including a few creative kicks that opened up the ground for us.
                            Have you heard Butters wants to come to the Dogs?

                                    The emergence of Adams (and Collins to come) means Moz can spend his twilight years on players he matches up with perfectly, rather than as a pinch hitting key defender.

                                    Hamling and Cordy are both quality types to take over the 3rd tall position that Moz has made his own. Not saying they'll ever be as good as him, but both are taller and have a more attacking flair, which will suit Bevo's system.

                                    Fletcher Roberts is the odd man out and has a lot of work to do to get back into the frame, IMO.

                                    We're at the point now, that if we were to snag either Hurley or Hooker (which I think is unlikely), we'd be better off playing them forward.
                                    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                                        Fantastic debut. His improvement across the 4 games he's played has been very impressive. Let's hope it's an indication of what's to come.

                                                The depth of his kicking surprised me. There were a couple of 50+ mtr kicks that hit their mark that really stood out.

                                                    How good was the 50m+ bullet to (I think) Hunter on his own. Exactly what they want him to be doing.

                                                        Really good performance first up, took some nice marks and distributed the ball well.

                                                        Still got caught out of position a few times, but lots to work with.
