One of the reasons I used to love Andrew Thompson was that he came to the pro level late. He seemed a much more rounded individual than the usual kids who only know being at school and on an AFL list.
He seemed to enjoy it more.

but by then I would be planning to say
Matt Maguire is well on his way to 150 games after a stunning return to play his 100th game - having not missed a beat in the 2009 pre-season and showing his strength and skills have returned.
Luke Ball has justified the Best and fairest performances of 2008
and Clinton Jones is on the way to cementing aspot in the Saints regular 22

CJ still needs to get use to the AFL standard but i believe he will be a regular 22 if he continues to improve....
