We are struggling up forward and he always seems to be in the best in the VFL, why isn't he getting a game? I would give him a 4 game run and see what he has. It can't be any worse than what we've been playing up forward with now. |

He's much like Kennedy in that he performs exceptionally well in the vfl but isn't quite afl standard. Still, what have we got to lose. May as well roll the dice now and experiment with the line up. He may be able to produce something up forward but who would he replace? I see him as a similar type player to Fasolo minus the defensive side. He's played a couple of senior games but didn't really have an impact in those. He's more an outside player isn't he? |

Go and watch some VFL games live as I have done for much of this year, and then you will see why he won't play senior football for the Collingwood FC.

Either play him next week or delist him at seasons end.
Been in the system 4 or 5 years now so he's either good enough for AFL level or never will be. _________________ He's mad. He's bad. He's MaynHARD! |

This is what I'm saying. Not everyone has to be in and under hard player. You win games by kicking goals, not how hard you go at it. He kicks goals that's what we need at the moment. |

I was his biggest supporter at the start of the season...before I started going to VFL games. His "2 goals per game" are mostly goal square jobs or accurate opportunistic shots, which look good on paper and seem like just what we need, but these do not translate to AFL football. I think he kicked 3 or 4 vs Footscray a few weeks ago, but he was mostly terrible that day. I seriously hope (wish) he could turn it around, but FFS, neat 2 seasons in the reserves when we're dying for an accurate forward with skill...don't hold your breath for senior football. I hope I'm wrong... _________________ Est. 2002 |

PK doesn't do enough to warrant a senior position. And I can't see him improving enough to actually make it at the elite level. He has been in the AFL system long enough to establish him self. Yes he has had injuries but he has had more than enough time to make something of him self. I highly doubt he will be on our list at seasons end. _________________ BLACK n WHITE

if he can't get a game in our forward line with Cloke, Elliot, White out, then he obviously is not considered senior potential, ever. We are happy to put surplus on ballers into the forward line ahead of him. |

How about giving him a few games in the seniors to see what he has? He might surprise a few people. |
