Wasted pick
He is still young and 3 months ago was in the best 22 of a team that drew a grand final, definitely worth a punt at this price.Zed wrote:Not too many who train harder than Rob Eddy. Deserves another chance and worth the punt. Rob will leave no stone unturned in 2011. Hope he can rectify his skill weaknesses.
I can only hope for more speed and skill levels at Seaford.ST KILDA
The Saints were very specific in their need for speed in the early picks in the national draft. Then they followed with two creative forwards. In the rookie draft they've rounded things out with another speedy midfielder and a creative half-back who plays as a sweeper. The speed and skill levels at Moorabbin look to have gone up.

While I appreciate that you're supporting a Saints player, I personally never saw Eddy in our best 22, he did bugger all in the GFs and frankly I just don't think he's up to it.bozza1980 wrote:He is still young and 3 months ago was in the best 22 of a team that drew a grand final, definitely worth a punt at this price.Zed wrote:Not too many who train harder than Rob Eddy.

If he’s to make it back he’ll have to come from further behind than Kiwi!saintlee wrote:While I appreciate that you're supporting a Saints player, I personally never saw Eddy in our best 22, he did bugger all in the GFs and frankly I just don't think he's up to it.bozza1980 wrote:He is still young and 3 months ago was in the best 22 of a team that drew a grand final, definitely worth a punt at this price.Zed wrote:Not too many who train harder than Rob Eddy.

Having said that, I'd love to be wrong and good luck to him.
"unusual"? as a doctor, leo, i'm sure you realise that every year there is at least one long-term injury which allows a rookie to be promoted. in fact, it would only be an unusual set of circumstances if there wasn't a long-term injury.Dr Spaceman wrote:Let’s be honest, the guy is now on the rookie list and barring an unusual set of circumstances, won’t be available for senior selection.

i'd be surprised (but happy!) if any of the rookies pushed for senior selection next year, so eddy may actually be not a lot worse off than he was this year.
I notice you never had the guts to respond to my request for the picks we should have taken this year. I suppose it is easier to criticize people if you arent proven wrong.BigMart wrote:time to stop being polite...

Theres a big difference between "holding them accountable" and the air of "I know better than the recruiting staff" that regrettably your post reeks ofBigMart wrote:time to stop being polite...

The vast majority of draft picks wind up delisted. Successfully predicting that Justin Sweeney wouldn't make it doesn't make you special. Picking Sam Gilbert as a player to watch just means you have eyes.BigMart wrote:most recruits i have bagged are delisted
