Corey Waddell

[Fluffy]

Waddell has been impressive for his first year in top grade. Seems to have a footy brain.

Waddell is a bit older at 22 than Paseka last year at 20 which helps, especially in the middle. That said Paseka had a few very good and some solid games in his first year, for some reason has gone backwards this year. Both are worth keeping but Paseka would be his last contract with us if things don't improve.

Tangles is good when on the field but cops a lot of injuries, probably only keep at a cheap price.

Perrett has the most talent of the lot but just doesn't seem to click up top. Time to go.

Sipley has also showed signs at times but also been missing, worth keeping on the cheap as back up but at 24 may not get much better.

If Thommo moves over to the UK as expected at the end of this year, would we be happy for Corey to move directly into his spot?

Reasonably low cost option with plenty of upside.

Happy for that to happen now to be honest

Honestly, a choice of Waddell or Lane, I pick Waddell. We upgraded big time, and fantastic succession for Thompson.

Also, I still think Lane is fantastic.

Panthers are dumb. Haha. Thanks Gus.

I got excited about this kid before he even laced on a boot for us. Glad to see has come on nicely and is looking like a star

We just got to sign him now ,I think (could be wrong)he is only here on a one year deal...

Sign him quickly before his stock rises ! I agree.

How lucky did we get with Corey. At the start of the year it looked like he was going to be out indefinitely with a pec injury but he made a miracle comeback and is now lifting our side big time

His Dad was a good footballer, but he never had the ball skills his son is showing. Absolutely outstanding. Then grew another leg/arm when DCE went off.

He said he liked my comparison to Choc when I said it to him on Twitter 🙂

He's been very good so far and I think there's a great big fat n hairy upside.

 

[Coops manly]

Signed for two years luckily give the man an extension !! What a workhorse

Great role player and will only improve. Great game and effort.

I’d give Waddell either Thompson’s or Siro’s starting spot...sure the kid can pass & offload...but he makes farking metres.
Very good player...we’re very lucky.

Not for me. Waddell is a middle.
Leave him exactly where he is.

It's a tricky one, he's not the biggest bloke we have.
But he has mongrel and some finesse, I think he'd nail either role.
