Well as far as I know Watters has stated from day 1 that birth certificates are out the window, so "pecking order" is really irelevant.Beekay wrote:What constitutes being ahead of someone?plugger66 wrote:Con Gorozidis wrote:If hes on fire then get him in the sr side.
A weeks enough is it Con. What about players ahead of him.
I'd imagine Ledger was ahead of Wright in general.
I know you're talking about consistent form. But if a player is to have a blinder and do all that is asked of him in order to play seniors, I saw feck the pecking order. Feck the peck.

I'd have the same attitude if we were pushing for GFs. When you get a big nibble, I think it's best to start hoisting, as apose to going after the little nibbles that have been happening all day.
You still have reward guys ahead of others if they are playing well also. And Ledger would have been way behind Wright this year.

Some info on JWebb from BigFooty. Includes some phantom draft material: http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/w ... my.892620/
FWIW, I remember reading a couple comments from people who saw him play saying he's really good. Bordering on elite ball usage.
Check out the first passage of play. That's him kicking inside 50:
So yeah, definitely has something to work with, and has started 2013 pretty damn well from the looks of it.

Re: Jimmy Webster debut?
Look out for Jimmy Websters brother Zac Webster in this years draft. He's suppose to be one of the most talented Taswegians available.

Re: Jimmy Webster debut?
Most of the Sandy watchers are saying that Dunell and Seb Ross are a bit ahead of Jimmy but that Jimmy has improved a lot and definitely should play AFL later this year. So ill take their word for it and wait a few more weeks .
But still good news that he is looking like a player.

FWIW I reckon Jiommy Webster has a great name and on that alone deserves selection this week.

Re: Jimmy Webster debut?
That must be the little brother jimmy was telling me about. Did not think he was old enough for the draft this year though as I thought he was only 15 last year. But could be wrong. Jimmy said the brother was much better than he is.Old Mate wrote:Look out for Jimmy Websters brother Zac Webster in this years draft. He's suppose to be one of the most talented Taswegians available.
