Willo well ahead of him and he's hardly going to be picked ahead of of Simmo or Daisy?
They're just pumping his tyres up....
Our defence is our shining light presently in any event....
Lachie o brien says hi.
Jack silvagni and Matt Kennedy must be wondering what they have to do to get a game.

The stats say high, like moneyball, playing forward JSoS had 6 shots at goal for 2.3 with one OTF.
Hardly the finisher we need given our recent losses!
I think if JSoS gets a run it will be as a Setterfield replacement, but I fear the timing is bad because the pace of the Dogs will show him up!

Fasolo didn't deserve a game ahead of polson
O brien didn't deserve a game ahead of anyone
Can we abandon this myth that players worthy of a game are getting opportunities??
The only way you could argue it is that stocker has less requirements to earn a game than the others due to length of time at the club.
Either way when you play first year players ahead of schedule (see o brien last season) they are either supremely talented and might surprise or our senior bodies are struggling and the last few matches have shown me our blokes cant play 4 quarters and match fitness is an issue.

Gees, hasn't Fasolo been a home run money ball pick up... Not

My opinion hasn't changed, he is a bet we've placed, I'm just not sure we can afford those bets at this time. It feels too soon, I hope he proves me wrong!
To me it would make more sense for a club on the borderline of success to pick up a player like Fasolo, I see him as an icing on the cake type player not a 24x7 type. I do not think he brings the kids much, at least on the field, maybe he has prime value off the field like Lobbe, although some would now question that as well!

Certainty to be deleted end of year IMO. Multi Year contract was sheer madness.

Fasalo was high risk...injury prone both physically and mentally, playing a yesterdays mark and kick game in a new era of pressure forward work which with his fitness and
game style had him unable to play senior footy at Collingwood and replaced by younger modern game style players...
If you took our desperation out of the equation you wouldnt have recruited him based on the facts.......

It was not a multi year contract. Well, I gather he needs to meet certain KPIs.....
Early days.

Certainly, in my opinion which I admit doesn't count for much, only one of Lang or Fasolo can survive to 2020!
Fasolo I thought signed two years, Lang's contract is a mystery!

Lang end of 2019 according to footywire....
He'd need to fire a few shots THIS season, I agree.
