Rubbish.
First of all Ablett was 185 and Dunstall 188
But Oscar Allen, JakeWaterman , Mihocek , McStay , Curnow , Georgiades, J Cameron , T Walker, Fogarty, Gunston , L McDonald , Zurhaar, J Amiss, Treacy , J Hogan etc all say hello
You can have your over rated Peter Wrights and Max Kings
i don't think people are disputing the fact that you can find genuine superstars with late round selections, it's just that they are sceptical of collingwood being able to correctly identify a talented player in our pick range.
...(R6); Jack Henry (R16); Zach Guthrie (R33); Gyran Miers (57); Liam Baker (R18); Brody Mihocek (R22); Noah Answerth (55); Darcy Fort (65); Tom Adkins (R11); Bradley Close (R14); Harrison Petty (37); Nathan Murphy (39) won a flag
Dylan Moore (67); Nick Larkey (73); JakeWaterman (77) All...
...soon to add to Judd darling etc with your complete lack of u25 talent

...reality. I certainly hope I am wrong and WC not only perform a lot better in 2025 but start to show signs of being a future contender.
JakeWaterman always showed signs of being a good player but no one predicted he would be an All Australian. I would've been rapt for him to play every game...
...over countless pages. Overall (and with all due respect) yours is a very negative outlook and I hope you find some joy this season. JakeWaterman was always going to come good, the signs were there before he got sick. I'm sure other players will stand up this season, others will fall away...
...a couple of key players out so aren't at our best, we have a couple of players out and can't even compete with Adelaide. Thank **** JakeWaterman had a career year as Allen missed all of 2022 and half of 2024 and we'd be otherwise still relying on a 32 year old Jack Darling. Next year we'll...
Ripping update!!!
I missed that about Barnett being trialed down back, always been plenty of chatter about trialing him there on here but didn't know it actually happened. Did he look quite good there? Certainly got the athletic profile for it.
I must have woken up in a disagreeable mood.
One comment way too harsh, one way too generous.
His trajectory to me was more Sheppard. Bit of a slow burner who grew into it and ended up with a decent career and showed he was about right for the pick used in his draft year. Definitely not...
...Hunt - carried toe and knee issues throughout 2024 which seemed to impact his form. Did play the last 10 games of the season though.
JakeWaterman - played through ITB soreness around his knee in the back half of 2024. Missed R19 due to the issue but then played the final 5 games of the...
What!!! Oh man, you've come out with another classic today[emoji23]. He was the next Shuey, and looked very bit of it too.

I'm very harsh on Venables because he took jakewaterman spot in 2018
Venables was not good player. In fact I go as far as saying he was trajectory was worse then chesser.
Chessser shows dash and kicking and some aggression that Venables showed nothing off. They are both equal in terms of...
I do think Waterman had a better year, but im not going to solely put it down to Watermans ability rather than different game conditions, and how we used them.
Yeo and Reids inside 50s often were burst from clearance, giving our forwards better opportunity. Was a lot less of that last year with...
Agree to disagree, it's clear nothing will convince you Waterman had an objectively better year.
Just for my own interest I looked into i50s, marks and goals and the like.
We had 38 more marks inside 50 in 2024, from 61 more entries. It's not a lot really. Whats wild is, scored 176 more...
He's easily the better option, comparing Jakes 2024 to Oscars 2023 is pretty wild. Both finished on 53 goals but Jake did it with 3 fewer games, and basically smashed Oscar in every other stat along the way...
Welsh is the same height as Waterman ....playing style wise, not a bad comparison
However, I'd forget about height in any comparison, and look at AFL fwds who are elite at reading the ball quickly off the boot
Maybe a Jesse Hogan
I'm trying to assess who Tyler would be similar to playing currently, would JakeWaterman be around the mark?
If so, I'm pretty happy to pick him up in the ND or RD
Again, generally don't disagree. But playing devils advocate here, I think he is a little bit different to Sanders and West in that he's a better ball user then those two and the one you want kicking inside 50 out of those. Also I think he could play a couple different roles which he has this...
