If that's the best you've got I think you need a power nap to freshen up for next Sunday. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Acrually its not.. there is nothing to say but speculation that Bootsma... is anything but a flanker with closing speed.

(insert name here )... can play midfield .. just doesnt cut it.

Explain to us what Bootsma has in ball winning ability and creativity in distribution...what should we be looking for in Bootsma as a midfield option???

Please?
Pretty please???



Dont worry im relatively fresh...!!! :fight:

Looks like our whole future is in Bootsma hands.

Bootsma's attributes have been discussed many times back in November. Will he make it? Who knows. But your standard line of Deflection using a question as an answer will get us nowhere as per normal.

As Cazz is rightly tired of pointing out, Bootsma's ability to pick and execute a pass was noted as being exceptional, so there's one of the attributes you're asking for Synners.

I don't think any of us know if he's going to win a heap of contested ball, but he will have a big frame when he's finished bulking up, and certainly seems a smart enough footballer to know where to run to make an option. That he can lock down an opponent is just a bonus.

Supporters can argue what they like.
I do know we had some shocking years . We were crap f and our window starts now and will last around 3 to 4 years. Anything less than one flag will be unacceptable.
period

I can't wait for round 1 and the season proper - as happened in 2011, the doomsayers will bugger off and leave the rest of of us alone.........

Here is a link to Jake Niall's article in 'the Age' of 26 Feb

It is basically saying we can't win a flag without Jamo and Waite.
I think it is pretty sound, albeit that is forgets we got where we got to without either of the payers mentioned being prominent last year.
What he is getting at is that they need to be there for us to take the next step.
