    I agree with you lemmon, I recall seeing him a few years ago now against Essendon in a practice game down at the cattery and he immediately took my attention back then with his attack on the ball and atheticism. He is still young and learning the game but I think he has a great chance of making it.

      I have seen a bit of him for Willi reserves and he really impressed me as a forward but i remember one piece of play in the NAB cup last year that really got me excited. He was playing full back on David Hille and the ball was floated towards Hille leading out of the square. Paul was caught behind but managed to catch up to and step in front of Hille and take an easy mark on his chest. It really just highlighted his pace, courage and agility. I know its a big call so early but he could become a real cornerstone of our defence for a long time.

        Just wondering what others thought about Wight's position. Last year they started him playing CHF but were forced to swing him to the backline due to Tom Williams being injured. He was quite ok up to approx half way in the year then his form dropped off.
        Do you think that he will be tried again in the forward line in the practice matches?

          No I think that is what they have in mind for Skipper Cam needs to work really hard on the defensive side of his game this year.
