Croft to debut against Eagles

[Hotdog60]

Last weeks game was the best I've seen Jordan play in the twos lets hope he can add that to AFL.

A genuine chance I would think.

In a few years the key positions could be dominated by Darcys and Crofts with some Wests collecting the crumbs.

Category B rookie when he gives up the Volleyball!

A genuine chance I would think.

At the East West function on Tuesday Matthew Croft mentioned that Jordan's twin (Mitch) is 207cm tall and will be playing Volleyball at the University in Hawaii
Isn't that where Billy Gowers is?

Really looking forward to Crofty getting a chance! He's been a bit hobbled so far, by injuries here and there. Lets hope he gets good run at it.. His old man was clearly hobbled by the array of injuries he had all through his career. It's a testament to his resilience and commitment that Matthew was able to forge out a meaningful career.
I've only seen a glimpse or two of Jordan Croft via a practice match this pre-season I thnk, so I don't have any frame of reference as to how he plays; can't wait to see him in the Red,White and Blue on Sunday!

Matthew said that Jordan has endured stress issues for his knee, shins and feet but seems to be on top of that now.

Good story, I was thinking of debuting Jaques this week, but totally forgot about Croft who has strung together a couple of good games.

Go well SOJH!

[Uninformed]

Yep - has a decent tank and can present to the kicker. Just as long as he stays out of Darcy & Naughton's leading lanes.

And doesn't take either of them out when he crashes the packs as he is known to do!

[Aidan7557]

Perfect replacement for Poulter. Flexible as he can play forward, wing, 2nd ruck.

[SquirrelGrip]

This will fire up the anti-father-son zealots! We should have debuted him against Freo!!

[bulldogsthru&thru]

Expecting him to take Poulters role in the forward half

That would be the likely change assuming Darcy is OK.
