Pick 29: Shai Bolton
- Thread starter puregreen
- Start date
Just off the cuff
Do you reckon the program and actual institute could help a kid like Bennel?
He is only 26.
Tigers have certainly done extremely well out of the West over the past few years.
Broad too
We do better out of WA then SA.
Besides Graham & Edwards who else has been a quality South Australian pick up.
Geelong also has three. Last time a team had theee noms and played finals was 2011 (Geelong 1st & West Coast 4th).
16 on the list, plus Grigg.
12 yesterday - missing Butler, Higgins, Caddy, Baker.
We've had 14 in a team three times - R23 last year, and R23 & the Elimination Final in 2014 v Port.
Record for all clubs is 17 for GWS in the 2016 prelim v the Bulldogs.
Record for a premier is 15 by West Coast in 2006 (four times).
Record for a premiership team in 14 (West Coast 2006, Hawthorn 2008). Richmond had 13 in 2017.
This bloke is a lot better than I thought he was
Could be an absolute superstar
Inside outside midfielder that kicks goals
Could be a revelation

Must've been close to the edge after spoiling Ellis and a quiet first half v St.Kilda. Some late midfield possessions seem to have sparked him.
Will be interesting to see how he deals with closer attention between the arcs.

Dimma will be rapt with the 6 tackles. Despite the obvious enormous attacking traits, they made this kid work hard on the defensive side of his game before they'd let him play seniors.
Look at those benefits now. A well rounded, 2 way player.
Tough love looks like it'll reap the rewards. That's development..

I wish he was a bit stronger in the body, as come finals time he might get found out when it gets more physical.
All that said however, geeze he's flying. He's really got his head in the game and ironing out what used to be frequent brain fades. His ability to run at pace, accumulate possessions but also to do damage with them, is a highlight for us.
All these "2nd tier" players stepping up has really taken some pressure of Cotchin and Martin to perform.
