He’s pretty much the Van Unen of our 2018 pick-ups.
NewLAV has done less, but at least he drew attention by having a literal zero-all game.

Houlahan just needs to work on his endurance and running patterns, once those have improved look out.

20 years should do it.
We are not lacking depth in that department lol
Fantasia
Tippa
Green
Lav
Fridge
The list goes on…
The problem is that they are either injured or out of form and thats extraordinary for the amount of players who play that role/that position.
Severe attack of the stick insects though. Needs plenty of gym time.

Is that all young players across the AFL or just ours? I ask because we say that about a lot of our kids but I don’t hear that said a lot about other clubs.

A certain percentage at every club I would think.
There’s plenty of runts getting around and still best 22. If your good enough, your good enough imo

Yep. I remember when Gleeson was picked in round 2014 and nearly falling off my chair. But he did alright because he knew how to play football.
Side note: how foreign is the concept of Essendon playing three debutantes, like we did in round one 2014.
Debuter is a french word meaning to begin. The vflw plays debutantes this weekend. There will be no debutants in the AFL side.

Haven’t you noticed how Dodoror prefers drafting sylph-like flankers?
I think Essendon has become scared of playing kids, fear of what I don’t know. That Fritsch from Melbourne is skinny as ■■■■ (1.88m 81kg), yet they play him, no problems with him competing.
Sheeds never worried about giving a skinny kid a go.
what would he bring to the team?
