Not too small you think?

I think he has found his level at vfl. Would get smashed in the afl imo

From all the guys at Williamstown i would have to say Rampe has the most upside, coming from NSW last year, has played some very good solid games in the twos and would benifit greatly from being a full time footballer i think.

Someone agrees with you as he has been invited to the Draft camp. MJP has been talking about him since the start of the season.

He's been invited to the state screening, and I believe it's been GVG who has been a fan since the pre-season.

Wouldn't be much point getting Little while Welsh is still on the list. They play a reasonably similar type of style. Certainly couldn't play them both in the same forward line. Might be a chance for a cheap replacement if Rocket still wanted that clever leading type of player I suppose.

I stand corrected, yes GVG, got my posters with abbreviations mixed up. Anyway as I said, someone sees something in Rampe.

Watched him on the telly for the first time & tend to agree. He is small but if he was quick it wouldn't matter so much & on telly he didn't look quick & hasn't got a big kick on him. I can't really see what he could bring to an AFL club.

From watching the TV coverage of the Port Melbourne game i would be looking at Dylan Joyce. Apparently only 19 and playing his 11th VFL senior game and was terrific.

He may be small but he has obviously made good progress in a short time.

There are a few smaller players making an impact at AFL level and Joyce kept finding the footy and used it well. He is only 19 so has plenty of development and would also build strength on an AFL training program. I believe he has more upside than someone like Rose who only seems to get a touch inside the forward 50.

Joyce impresses me as someone who would make sure they gave it everything and would get the maximum out of their ability.
