      Cal Twoomey tweeted specifically about his performance, so my guess is this week.

          Damn on two fronts
          One I was hoping he would fly under the radar and the other I was hoping he was more of a defender.

                From what I’m reading his goal kicking accuracy is a stand out. Forget he’s 200cm, I’ll take a reliable kick at goal. I guess the issue will be the most erratic tall forward at goal kicking becomes a KPD with Buss, JOD & Gards longer term.

                It sounds like he might cost us a bit more, but surely we don’t pass on an athletic 200cm accurate goal kicker.

                Edit: Twitter said he had numerous goal assists too!

                  This is getting rather intriguing. I mean, we are just stacked for key forwards but how're we going to fit them all in? At least one of Darcy, Croft or Naughton will have to go back.

                  In addition, we desperately need to draft some mids. We have next to no depth in that department. But Croft is sounding too good to pass up and I don't think this draft is particularly blessed with midfield talent. Although that might only be at the top end. Draft watchers would know more.

                  What are Crofts projections? Is it becoming a possibility of top 10?

                    I’ve not heard him mentioned close to the first round. But his stock is rising.

                        I see. OK didn't realise he was that far off. It'd be nice not to have to use our first on him. Can someone tell him to pull up stumps from here?

                          We'd have to recruit Schache back just so we'd have something to talk about!

                            Haha probably true.

                            It's going to happen eventually when Darcy and Marra are in tandem.

                              Jeemak said he’s being traded for pick one in the match day thread - you know that’s the kiss of death. Won’t be our debate anymore. Just how to fit Harley Reid in our midfield.

                                We are going to have to pay a decent price from Croft. Seems like someone will grab him around the middle of the first round.
