Everyone showed signs however starting to worry over Weitering and Silvagni. Both I feel are stuffed half way through first quarters, thunder thighs runs with concrete legs and Silvagni has no where near an afl tank either. Weitering I think is not a key defender and I think we need to use him as a 3rd tall rebounding type and build his confidence. Silvagni is a 3rd tall forward and unfortunately thats it, hopefully they improve throughout the year.
They are both only 20, they are were both young draftees.
It's a good thing to remind yourself what they can do as kids;

Remember that the above summaries are discussing the efforts of 18 and 19 year olds playing KP at the highest level!
A lot of media people are making comparisons to Daniher, even the spuds on Ch.7 who cannot help but add a CheatsFC reference to every game. But Daniher has been around much longer, his debut was 2013, compare his first seasons with the guys above and they look pretty good all of a sudden.

My only concern about this debate is comparing Silvagni to Weitering, it's not fair, they are a different class of player.
