#46 Lachlan Blakiston

He’s a 26 year old ruckman who is skinny af doing a kind of serviceable job plugging a hole down back.

Genuinely not sure what we see as his medium term future (if any). He could be just as easily off the list next year.

The classic tale of two halves; commendable first half, train wreck second half.

Might as well keep sending him up and see what we have. He has good size and althletic profile, just lacking some smarts as defender, which is unsurprising given he’s a ruckman.

Laverde won’t go around next year, he is finished and only getting a game right now due to our long injury list.

Looks good in the ruck.

Could be a really versatile player

there’s a decent footballer lurking in Blakiston

needs a decent polish to smooth him out but he’s more good than poor

Where do we send him for said polish?

I don’t see it. High, awkward tumbling kicks, just okay at ground level. Pass.

Already our best defender.

Definitely keeper

He has played well and held his own

He can’t kick properly.

Definitely a bit to work with here. Hope we give him another year

I’d keep going with him.

Did you see the pass into the forwardline ? From a ruckman

Moves so well for a tall bloke.
Kicking action is terrifying, but absolutely laced out a bullet into the f50.

I’d persevere

Needs a lot of development

This is not the place for him
