    I'm happy we took a shot at Caleb, he's very highly rated amongst his peers.

    I was hoping for ANB, but the story with him going to Melbourne with his great mate Stretch is such a good one.


    Here's a photo I took that's been in heavy rotation on social media this week.

    I've seen that photo a couple of times. One of them might even have been in the paper.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

      Just because you're a Glenelg man? Thoughts on Hamilton?
      If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

        Yep. And haven't really watched him enough. Hopefully doesn't eat as much as his uncles

          Just watched that highlight video against Vic Country and metro, god he is impressive. Like Hrovat he is small and not super quick, but he is always getting the ball on the move at close to full pace and makes really good decisions. Lovely kicking style as well.
          I should leave it alone but you're not right

            What is unique about our great game is you don't have to be a freakish tall to play. Players of all sizes can play this great game as long as they have a football brain and skills.

            Shorty Daniels will be up against it, but his determination will get him through, just like Libba or Harvey.

                I've seen it mentioned a few times, he moves alot like Daniel Kerr, and he's my tip to get a game first from the new recruits, he may also give Selwood a run for his money on head high free's.

                  I was just listening to Caleb's interview from during trade week on the trade Radio app on my IPad. He was saying his coach at South Adelaide this year was Brad Gotch so there's a Bulldog connection there.

                    I could be wrong but didn't Bradley Gotch play for Fitzroy then St.Kilda.

                    Or was Gotch a Footscray assistant coach or supporter. I just don't remember seeing him play for the Dogs.

                      He coached Williamstown when we had an alignment with them.

                          He was also a relative football "midget" so maybe he had some tips on surviving

                            I think when Gotch was in charge there were a few issues with the alignment. Not a reflection on Gotch because he was trying to serve two masters. His support team wasn't as strong either.

                                I've spoken to a few of calebs team mates from the state u18s this year, and a few guys that have played against him in their sanfl, and they are all reAlly pleased for him that he was drafted, and they all also say that he definiteLy can play.
