Clarke's disposal is currently not up to AFL standard. He finds it well - he just needs to do a lot of work on what he does with the ball once he has it.

“If” Clarke makes the 22.....he needs to play in tight initially so his decision making is instinct only because the more time he has the worse his disposal .......his tagging fitness and run would free up a midfield player like Hewett to influence the game in multiple roles like a Toby Greene role that Hewett played in 2017 very well
Interesting watching Papley who is taking the game on well but not there yet with the long kicks especially
Overall the 6/6/6 is making it tough for the way we like to set up in the past and even more important we have some run and carry to counter the forced fast long kick into our backline"be tough, only when it gets tough"

Jones, Aliir and Papley have been my highlights thus far. Aliir, in particular, is showing some real nous as a makeshift ruckman.
However, I think we need to bear in mind that the contrast between this week and last has a lot to do with the opposition. Gold Coast have the pace and skill to punish us when we turn the ball over (as we did, poorly) on several occasions in the first quarter. But their midfield pressure and defensive structures/nous are a long way short of GWS's.

Dawson could be a real forward factor this year. He is a beautiful kick and if he finds enough of the ball could kick 30-40 goals.
Hewett going well - hardly ever plays a bad game this bloke. Aliir is our most versatile player and shows how valuable he will be to us this year. Sinclair needs to be put in cotton wool and wrapped in bubble wrap though.Comment

I know it's only GC but we have a lot of best 22 players not playing and no rucks, although Aliir is doing some great stuff at the centre bounces.
Need Jones to play midfield, Mills too. Dawson looks a starter for R1. I know lots of people want to retire them but Grundy and McVeigh really do read the ball well and make good decisions.
Let's see what the second half brings, another 14 goals, cough cough!Comment

Allie is having a fair game in the ruck, he is going to have a big year I sense

He's going to be a gun, once he bulks up past his current praying mantis phase.Comment

Not a Rose fan but the guy has only had 23% time on ground (and has an assist) so I think you’re being harsh on him.Comment
