Scoop I value your insights , do you think the kid if he continues this form could debut before the year is out.?

Reckon it's a long shot. If we were a poor side, his form over the last three weeks would warrant a couple of weeks at the top level.

Still think this bloke is going to be a very, very, ,very good footballer and play a lot of games.
 
Isn't it great to be able to let these kids develop with no pressure or rush to promote them.

Getting our own VFL team was a very key move for our current success.

And not being built up as messiah's like Tom Roach and Andrew Raines. I would have included David Bourke but within 2 seconds we knew that wasn't the case!

This is true. Naish was left until last pick in the draft & not even promised selection by the club. He’s been made to earn it.

Bit harsh on David.

Showed signs but needed to fill out his body to match the fearless game he played.

Unfortunately he never morphed from Twig.

Still learning then.

Could be a smokey for round 1 2019
The way his progressed this year and after another pre season adding some muscle, I think he may even be more then. Smokey yott
 
This kid is genuinely pushing for a senior debut. With the amount of young kids in the team, can we introduce another one?

Yep getting better all the time, I think your right TST with so many youngsters in the team it would be hard to bring in another light framed kid, especially with Bolton demanding his spot back.
