    No question whatsoever with Kyle, he is quality.
    the question will be how far can he develop his game - talent is one thing taking the next step to becoming a regular contributor is another - I like what he has shown so far

      Let’s agree to disagree on this one. Hamling has done the job on both Max King and Georgiardous this year because he has good reach when defending from behind. He also can play the defensive forward role quite effectively. Melican is good back up in case of injury
      Bang on Melican is limited and struggles on the big boys - good depth though

          For a bloke that has only been playing AFL footy for a couple of years basically, he is doing astoundingly well. He has a long way to go, but a very high ceiling potentially. Really liking what he has shown so far.

            And what a cameo that was. Let's not forget the amazing Shepard that allowed Kieren Jack to tie the score.

            1970. Ted Hopkins for Carlton is another.

            Realistically, i couldnt care less who gets a Premiership medal, because that means we won the flag, and isn't that why we're here?
