Nothing to do with impatience. If you're kicking 3 or 4 goals in each game of VFL you're good enough to play. In you come. This is the opposite of impatience - this is letting performance dictate selection and ignoring the surname all together.
Weitering / CCurnow already went straight in - why should this guy be different just because of his last name?
Extra Expectation, extra Pressure, there is no one size fits all in football any more so you cant compare Weitering to Curnow to SOSOS...Jack Watts is an example of a player who should have been held back rather than thrown into the fray early..
I reckon Melbourne got it right with Jesse Hogan and gave him more time even though he was showing even more than Jack in the twos.....maybe at the end of the season he can be given an introduction game but I dont see it improving his football by playing seniors now..
