Reckon Martyn is only now starting to recover from the dissapointnent of his game against Port. Kid was shell-shocked. In saying that i think he is one of the kids less likely to make it.

Good point.
There have been a couple of 'mare debuts this year. This kid and Ryan.
Both looked completely lost at the higher level.
Just like the MC.
They too have had a 'mare re selections.
They have picked completely unbalanced sides.
So I won't blame these 2 players.
They weren't ready to be elevated.
Doesn't mean they are not going to make it.
But MC has had a Barry this year.
Epic fail!

The problem is we have our best 22-24 then there isn't much depth with senior experience after that. With the injuries a lot of them have been thrown in the deep end.
Watched a few of his VFL games recently. Only one issue I have with his game n it's the one that cost him a smashing in his senior debut.
Sometimes just hangs on to the ball way to long trying to, make a decision, find an option, or simple lack of awareness that heat is coming on. He can get away with it to some extent at VFL level, but at AFL level it's career deadly.
Could be nothing worse than a young kid simply needing a little bit of game experience n growth through the different levels of footy, just a matter of wait n see how he develops.

There are no stupid ideas, just stupid people
Got a couple of senior games, like virtually all our youngsters simply needs to be able to get games of VFL footy under the belt for proper development purposes. Not much chance of building a work platform for the kids these last two years.
His kicking. It lacks any penetration. He always look for the short 15m kick. Maybe it’s a confidence thing.
He did, but the difference between Port in R4 at a rabid AO and yesterday's game was like boiling water to cold tea.
