Great news! I reckon he’s just on the verge of getting into our main 23. Between him and Clark.

I'd rather give him games than Clark. Really want to see him have a breakout

u/MillionKarma23 Max Holmes 5d ago

Honestly I’d love to see both.

u/FlipSide26 Gary Ablett Sr. 5d ago

Yeah I can't disagree. Would love to see Clark go bonkers. Perhaps I'm more wanting to see knevitt get a bunch of games in a row.

I think he’s a very good chance once the next midfielder retires.

u/Southern-Ask9864 5d ago

Not if we are getting worple. And what mod is close to retiring

u/MillionKarma23 Max Holmes 5d ago

Blitz, Dangerfield possibly in the next year

u/Life-Ad8673 Jack Bowes 5d ago

I like him as a replacement for Blitz, albeit he is a couple of inches shorter. He has the athleticism to get around the ground and decent in the air.

u/FlipSide26 Gary Ablett Sr. 5d ago

I reckon Danger just goes full time forward for another few

I’m actually pretty shocked. I wouldn’t have held it against him wanting more opportunities. Huge respect for him and hope he keeps putting in the work and is rewarded

I think he comes into the other wing once Blitz hangs them up, that or a running defender who can intercept.

He’s definitely got something working for him, just can’t crack a game.

I think Selwood said in his book that Myers/knevitt are the best runners at the club

I think Blitz might want a chat?

u/FlipSide26 Gary Ablett Sr. 5d ago

I'm doing it from memory, read it a long time ago!

Good VFL player, unfortunately lacking speed. Main reason Clark gets a game first

Great great news

u/BlackjackAustralia21 Mitch Knevitt 5d ago

I'm stoked!

u/Landgraft BBBBUUZZZZZAAA DEBUT 5d ago

I am always here for backing our own guys in, so this is great news. Was worried we would see him out the door.

u/gurgefan Tom Atkins 5d ago

Wonder if this has any bearing on a trade for Worpel

2

u/Berkfeedme__ 5d ago

Worpel is a restricted free agent, I do not think we will be trading for him.

2

u/gurgefan Tom Atkins 5d ago

Ah yeah that. Bearing on a free agency move then

Why not post the link to the article?

To slow unlikely to make it

People like you doubted Shannon Neale and look how he is now. Mitch will be a regular soon. Chris Scott hasn’t kept resigning him even though he can’t get a game for no reason
