Most improved player for 2008?
Off-season thread #3
Who will be our most improved player (of the current list) in 2008?
Who will be our most improved player (of the current list) in 2008?
They should only play AFL games now when it's raining. Slow games of footy are so much better to watch.
excellent poll
i voted Armitage. I think he will be given the greatest oppoutunity in the senior side.
I also believe Allen with a full season should be able to really step it up and hopefully crack a debut at some stage.
Geary obviously has shown great signs, should continue to improve and hopefully he can prove a worthwhile gamble.
Jones i still cant see him making it
howard, if he isnt a fulltime casey senior's player then its goodbye to him
van rheenen, im excited by this guy. he is great at training and with his attitude i believe he could become anything. hopefully he will get more time in the casey seniors working with Rix in the ruck.
Eddy also showed he is capable. He is next in line for elevation. still shocked he lasted till the rookie draft.
Gilbert has already improved to much to be considered the most improved. i still expect him to become one of the top five or so players for stkilda next year. forget Koschitzke as our super utility. he can be a permanent fullforward next year as far as im concerned. gilbert can play literally every position on the ground except ruck. can tag the best midfielders, can defend the best talls, can run off the best wingmen, and can kick goals on the best defenders.
gwilt is just a backup if he is going to be used as a key defender. if he wants his own spot then he can take a hff.
raph, gee wizz i hope he can improve. too slow and/or too lazy. too un-co and/or too lanky. too unskillful and/or nerves under pressure.
get him motivated. get him fit. make him the player he was suppose to be

Bot - Gilbert can't even kick right yet
But I agree
He's our next Brownlow medalist
Captain
3000 game player
Rumour has it he's also in line for a Wallabies call-up
And rookied for the Socceroos
Today's Age also hints that there is another smokie candidate for the seat of Benalong
You got it

I went for Geary as he ticks a lot of boxes. Rookie elevation says the club sees something in him. Starting from zero position (elevated at end of season) so any/all improvement will be noted/exaggerated. Has now had a full year of playing against men. Will have a full pre season under the belt. GO GEARS !!
