Very dissapointing. I had big things marked for him at the Magpies and I thought of him exceptionally highly.

Yes he is a player that could come into the league side straight away. Still has some faults but I believe he is someone that could play 150 SANFL games at a pretty high level.

Very smooth mover, can play inside and uses the ball well. His style of play reminds me of Nick Dal Santo.

I thought he'd play almost every game this year. Obviously he thinks with a few of our recruits that he won't get the opportunity to develop as a senior player. Was unlucky not to be drafted two seasons ago and apparently was being looked at for a rookie spot at a few AFL clubs last season.

I wish him all the best for the future and look forward to seeing him forge a succesful SANFL career with the Blues.

Thankyou for that Macca19 that sounds very promising. Just on a lighter side I believe Jeremy Clayton too, will find it hard to sustain his spot for the Maggies, he is unbalancing the side. A simple switch down Unley way I think would benefit all parties :lol:
But it was more than a victory for Greece. It was a stirring example to free people throughout the world of what a few brave men can accomplish once they refuse to submit to tyranny.

thats the risk when you recruit for instant success, you may lose quality kids who always dreamed about playing for their club
