          I don't have huge expectations on his rucking but I'm excited to see him at full forward

              But what a perfect opportunity to introduce him without needing to rely on him as primary ruckman

                We'll see with Big Toby. I was not entirely impressed in the pre-season. He was ok but mixed form more so than good. He has played well apparently in the Twos though. so good luck to him. I hope his debut is eventful.

                  Good luck to Big Toby, hopefully he clunks a few early down at FF.

                  Would of much preferred to see Hewitt or Jack ahead of Towers.

                  I hope to be proven wrong, but he always looks nervous when he gets the pill in traffic and tends to turn it over.

                    I can't believe Towers is getting another run ... nice story but really has shown very little in the several chances he has had ... what we don't need is blokes who lack strength and the ability to get the hard ball. Nothing particularly attractive in his speed or disposal either. What a mess of a team ... if Port find anything like what they are capable of this is another loss.

                      He has been more than ok so far. He is developing. He is not an in and under player, we have plenty of them. We do need blokes that can kick goals and he can do that. He will certainly set a few up as well. His handball is very impressive and he doesn't hold onto the ball too long, unlike a few blokes out there at the moment, Rhyce are you listening?

                          Thanks Ugg. Where do you source this info? I just tried to find it without success until I looked here.

                            He has been pretty good in ressies since last getting dropped - indeed his game here in Canberra against Eastlake was superb. I want to see him translate the role he plays into the ressies into the role he plays in seniors. I hope he starts tomorrow and isn't the sub to be honest - he is more than a decent mark, and he does have a tank when he chooses to use it. Doing it at AFL level is another thing of course.

                            Why exactly is it a mess of a team? Who would you have selected instead?

                              I know that Rhyce is my biggest 'whipping boy' but how many big mistakes, resulting in goals, can you make before you are dropped at the Swans?
