Want a trip down memory lane that is pace related?
Remember David Spriggs?

I was keen on him last year, but Mynott has been good. Pity we couldnāt fit both.
My sister (Cats supporter) was obsessed with him for a brief period.
Wouldnāt be particularly surprising but aside from Jackets being there yesterday, Hawthorn had some scouts there also. Assume wouldāve been similar for a few clubs looking for pace at least?
After Tenace debuted there was an article in the Geelong Addy about how we stuffed up by taking Bradley instead of him. I couldnāt wait until that bit them on the ā ā ā .
Still waiting btw.
Heās not doing anything he didnāt do last year. If picked up, it will be late in draft.
I think he has improved slightly, particularly in his āthink before I disposeā area, and also in his contested ball.
Unsure on the stats but he seems to be accumulating more ball this year compared to last, might be due to increased midfield time

Could have been worse could have got prismall
He kicked a couple of awesome goals in our intra club back in Feb. I donāt think heād look out of place at senior level but I think heād be a bit of a flash in the pan who would drift out of games if sides put some work into him.
That said Iād like to see him get his chance
Didnāt Kane tenace drop his knees and break Daveyās arm, then fletch got suspended for striking him in the same game. Might of been ramaās Comeback game
Didnāt people rate Aaron Heppell 2 years ago?
Wanted him on the rookie listā¦what makes Hind better than Heppell?
People like the sizzle, and forget about the steak.
Heās got something (pace) which could translate to AFL.
A Heppell is a smallish, slowish nugget midfielder, whoās decent overhead. Heās the prototypical āgood VFL playerā whoāll probably play 200 and win B&Fs at that level. (see also Ben Jolley or Mitch Hallahan). Doesnāt mean heās got anything thatād translate to AFL.
You need something that stands out in seconds - be that beautiful disposal, being able to mark everything, pace, size, etc etc.
Look you could well be right. But on the other hand heās shown consistent ability to get a lot of the ball and do good things with it over a longish period of time, and players like that sometimes slot right into senior football and do exactly the same there. Heās the sort of player rookie spots are there for.
We have a such a shortage of depth in outside run, that Travis Colyer gets regular games.
If we donāt pick up Hind, I hope we pick up somebody like him.

Well, no last year. He was injured a lot. And I think he started this year pretty slowly as well.
Its hard for guys like him to get a AFL gig, you really need several really good seasons back to back. And you should recall when Blitz was going on about him it was when he was playing as a small defender.
Yep.
Jerret and Long delisted with Colyer likely gone next year.
Green and Bags nearly gone, who might not be outside run but when they go Tippa and Raz will be forced to play more forward.
Is there any outside players developing. We are allready bare and the depth we do have is about to be jettisoned.
Massive need to grab a couple of players to address this.
And he was a back pocket before that.
We WILL draft him and you ALL will like it
Get this cvnt in the round 1 2019 team NOW
Nope.
If his disposal was better Iād be for it.
