Me either.
Unless he's a great KPP prospect, preferably a forward, do not want. We already have more little blokes than all of Hobbiton.

| 23yo, 193cm, 95kg KPP with good speed and agility, likes to get on his bike as a lead up forward bat can play back. Was a high pick in the 2011? draft. |

Could possibly do a similar thing to Josh Bruce at St Kilda. With our interest in Hurley and supposedly Mayne, as a type Tomlinson makes sense. And smart deals for players on the outer at other clubs is always where the best value lies. It's very unlikely we'll be able to land a star KPP, it happens so rarely and we don't have the capital, players like Tomlinson are who we'll be targeting .

Correct; and taken before Toby Greene and Devon Smith.
Strange but true.
Oh, and Will Hoskin-Elliott taken before Chad Wingard.

OK, could work if we can get him cheap.

That's a good size, if he's any good? |

Yes - but there's little reason to think he is. See my post from the previous page of this thread, attaching a link to his career stats:

Thus, as you said earlier. "Who?" |

Just going through his bio on GWS official site and its impressive. GWS were said to be "giddy" with his potential and had some great patches of form over the years. Injury robbed him of some consistency and getting into a team full of first rounder picks would be challenging.
Booming right kick, mixture of speed and endurance etc.
I say yes and its true what An Inkling said, best value lies around the players on the outer.
If we are smart we can let GWS develop these players for us then we can get them on the cheap when they dont quite get enough playing time.

| Land WHE and Tomlinson and when combined with Adams and Elliott we could end up with 4x 2011 1st round draft picks which as minor premiers seems obscene. |

At the least he's had a toe injury that sidelined him for 3+ months in 2015 and a PCL in 2016. So there's more to it than just not being picked. There has been a problem with finding his best position: key back, key forward, or not a key at all?
I don't know just how good he is, but he was rated highly in the 2011 draft. There's nothing I know about him that screams stay away, up to our recruiters to work out if he's a good fit.

Inky if he's any good Gubby will have the low down on the kid for sure. He size sounds ideal for the way the games played these days and he was very highly rated in the draft so he couldn't have been a complete dud. A few injuries have derailed his progress it seems more than being no good plus hard to push into a side that's been winning like they have.
If Gubby says he's a get then he's a get |
