He had games where he kicked multiples, and other very quiet ones from memory,...

Never seemed to play consistent batches of good games, that's my concern.

Flipside, if he can kick 40ish....may just be the medium we've been looking for.

Surprises me, perhaps he seems to play taller than his height...

Instead of telling us who we shouldnt have picked can you tell us who you would have got at those picks. Thanks whinger.

Stating the obvious here, but Gamble just needs to work to Gambles strengths....if he can do that, and consistently....

Im fine. Its the whingers who complain about people they have never seen play. Is it the case that if you dont whinge then you arent a real Saints supporter.

Have always kept a bit of an eye on him given where he came from and happy with the pick up. Think he's got the ability to play that third forward role (does seem to play taller than actual height suggests)... possibly as a second lead up from half forward.

As plugger said... cant expect much at pick 90, this could be worthwhile.

Don't really care who we picked.....and don't really know who we should have taken....perhaps Darling.....

Just know the types we do recruit....and our formula has seen very few good kids come through in the last 6 years.....and be regulars(the diff between us and Coll).....and our recycling has had hits and misses...

Not whinging

Cripps may be good.....hasen't set the world on fire
A couple of midgets
Aaron is a long way off
And a couple of REJECTS

Sounds like 2004-2009

So we can bookmark this. Remember Darling can only be used ahead of Cripps unlike some who mention a player as if we had the first 10 picks. So it seems you only have a problem with the first pick?
