Wallis

Re: Wallis

Fair point and I'm definitely not disagreeing that Wallis needs to improve. Of course he does! But my point was can we really judge such things as elite weapons at AFL level from a teenager who plays such a tough role. And that with the right work ethic these perceived issues can be worked around (thus my Scottie West example). Surely that's not unreasonable.



At 19? Really because I remember a small, slowish goalsneak.

Me too, and just to show how misleading early impressions can be, Scott West was constantly bagged in his first few seasons as 'soft'.

I haven't been dazzled by Wallis just yet, but I remember many other players that have either surpassed early expectations, or failed to live up to early hype. We just don't know yet, but he seems such a quality kid, and I'm looking forward to watching him next year.

Re: Wallis

I read it as under Eade they were in two groups.

Now they are one group and will each get a say.

Maybe that's how it was under Eade, although it could also be a comment from the perspective of a guy who's spent his entire career to the start of 2011 being a leader and gun player who's voice was always heard and considered, only to find out things are different in the big league.

I'm not an Eade apologist by any stretch, but I take with a grain of salt these sorts of comments from potentially naive players. Especially when a new sherriff has just walked into town.
