Aish wont play too much at Sandy. He is the class mid in the draft and will play more AFL than VFL next year if he played for us. Whitfield isn't huge, but he is playing more seniors than not, you are entitled to an opinion, but I don't think you will have much reason to be upset with our Aish selection (if thats the way it goes down) after a few months on the list.gringo wrote:plugger66 wrote:gringo wrote:Don't get me wrong Aish would do me too but Scharenberg is a little more ready to go in his first season.

Why.we are still on the way down. One young player wont help. get the best player we can for 3 years time. Easier said than done.
We need to stay competitive to attract sponsors and keep the gate ticking over. Aish playing at a s*** club on the bottom of the ladder out at sandy might be enough to head home. Scarenberg would play 10 games in his first year and has the type of big solid body that will turn into man very quickly. Aish is wispy and quick but could end up better long term- he has been compared to Bryce Squibbs so that might have done him in for me. yes I am petty.
I dont understand why you think Scharenberg is ready to go? While he might become a great mid or fantastic general in the mould of Goddard, we really aren't screaming out for another half back flanker are we?
