Nothing objective.

Luff should have been AA full-back this year. Another Peel kid (Blayne Wilson) got the gig and whilst Blayne deserved a spot in the team I dont think he played full back once. 193cm mobile utility - good skills, strong character...

Brown is the same size but very raw. Has a fantastic attack on the ball - which is the one thing I don't think you can coach - and has games where he marks everything in range...and others where he doesn't mark a thing. Kicking is equally hit or miss. Very talented, but really just a country kid who didn't start to understand the work required until he missed selection in the carnival side (he was in the WA Squad but never played).

Is Luff quick and agile enough to play on smaller guys?

I'll bow to mjp's insights but from what I have seen of him I think he would very equiped to playing on smaller guys.

Thanks for that mjp.


Going by what you have added GVGjr, sounds like a very promising type - and the type that I think we could use a couple of.

Thanks guys.

Let me just say that it is unlikely anyone will find out the answer during the remaining games this year.
