Might be moving in with Dimma.

That's really interesting, one thing I heard was Stack had a few discipline issues, this being second hand info but it does explain why he was overlooked. Probably worth a shot but his running was pretty bad at the combine. For his player type to succeed he needs to adopt a thoroughly professional outlook.

Big gamble from Dimma. What's the logic in this?

Stengle/Lloyd replacement?

Stack clearly has talent, and talent gets chances.

 

[Mr Brightside]

I like it, if he can’t put the hard yards for a few weeks his no chance , worth a close look

 

[caesar]

Concerns above are well founded, added to the fact the WA clubs who should know him best chose to pass on him is a worry!

Must have talent? a quote from AFL Draft Central:

"If he is available at pick 31, the Dockers could have a steal in Perth’s Sydney Stack who is one of the most exciting and impactful midfielder/forwards in this year’s draft pool. Despite only standing at 177cm"

What's the gamble? Might steal his wallet and disappear?

I’m confused. How can he be picked up now? All the drafts done. He’s not a DFA of any description.

same rule that allows us to get Weller - SSP

same rule that allows us to get Weller - SSP

But Weller was a delisted free agent (of sorts). Stack isn’t. What’s SSP stand for?

 

[mad_tiggy911]

What's his speed and endurance like? Has he got tricks? Is he similar to Stengle in that he's got game but can't run?

 

[caesar]

Is there a limit to how many you can pick up under this rule? anyone else we want sleeping at Dim ma's house?

supplemental selection period, applies if you've previously been on a list or have nominated for a draft. can select players between Dec 1 & March 15

Some people are referring to it as a mid season draft

Height - 177cm

[Mr Brightside]

Having a look at the highlights, definitely carrying a few extra pounds

 

[mad_tiggy911]

Had a look also and all I see is turn overs and him being rag dolled.

I thought it meant secret special player

That’s pretty slow 2 k’er - I could crack 3 1/2 min per km in my peak and honestly I was a plodder

Yep, really bad, yo-yo not much better. Pace ok though. It's a longshot particularly given he's 177cm, the only role I can see is defensive small forward but that will require a super human effort to get his fitness up.

 

[TOT70]

Some of the kids that come from unorthodox family backgrounds have very good reasons for why they are not as fit as Private school kids and city boys, who get things handed to them.

Maybe he comes from a remote background and didn’t have a parent who could (or was able to) commit to driving him to training several times each week? Maybe he made the State team despite some of these things, because of his natural talent? We don’t know about these things but the clubs do.

If Dimma is going to take him in before they draft him, it is likely that the club wants to look at how he adapts to the professionalism of AFL footy before they commit to him.

It’s a free look.

I thought level 20 yo-yo was good?

I thought this thread was a draft tampering thread about the swans :hihi

I like the look of Syd's reel. he gets caught and swung about, cause he waits for the best option, then takes it.

if they made a panic decision test at the combine, I suspect he'd score a zero.
