Croft to debut against Eagles

[mjp]

And they were fantastic grabs as well. Clean and he attacked the contest hard. I was sitting right behind him at the goals and i was gobsmacked. I honestly didn't think
he was ready for AFL level and he hadn't really earned it going by his stats, then he goes and does that.

Big question is. Does he get a game against Freo?

Not for me.

Ground ball will be too important against the Dockers and I just don't think we need 3x talls up forward.

Hard to leave him out after kicking 3 snags tho!

I got lucky seeing the VFL game immediately before his debut, but how he played against the Eagles was very similar to his game against Box Hill.

He totally surprised me at that VFL game but I left thinking he was ready. Didn't expect him to get picked so quickly though!

Hope he does. I thought he definitely made us better.

[Cyberdoggie]

Umm - yes.

He started taking contested marks for fun. Looked awesome!

I tend to agree,no matter who we played those two marks would have been taken, and his poise when he was competing for the ball and when he did get it were natural talent that wouldn’t have made difference whether it was a good side or not .
I believe he could still have games where he won’t get near it but it won’t be because he isn’t good enough.

Were you surprised by his performance (Eagles being woeful aside)?

Umm - yes.

Getting to propose trades like:

"Harley Reid AND 2x 1st Round draft picks for Jordan Croft" to all my WCE mates was the clear highlight of yesterday's game.

That went better than I expected.

The last time we had a Liberatore, West, Croft and Darcy all play together in the same game ....

Great debut up forward. Looks like he could be anything with his athleticism and attack on the ball!

The other one is at GC , they played against each other .

He's at North now. VFL side

[ledge]

Yes, the son of Stephen MacPherson

There’s a MacPherson running round in the Twos, any relation ?

Yes, the son of Stephen MacPherson

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