Rd 13: Pre Game posturing: Carlton vs Gold Coast

Whilst he's a better prospect than Dylan, I reckon you could say similar about Jack Silvagni.

As blue4life stated elsewhere, we were more or less forced to recruit him. If his name was Jack Smith, would we have shown an interest ?

I know he's young, I know he's still learning the caper, I know he busts his gut, but his skills, lack of pace and goal kicking worry me a little.

Geez... I am a big wrap for young SOS, still very young (a week older than H) and had fantastic form in the 2s for a 1st year player to earn the spot. Kicks a goal each week, lays a few tackles and takes 3-4 marks.. I think he will be a good one. I also expect he will put on another 5-6 kg over the next couple of seasons as well.

I know I went early on him, but I reckon he is rated highly and a fair reason why we will pay  more for Ben.
