The best thing is his connection with the pies and he is a pie man before going north. This is a very good thing, lets hope he brings belief.

A good break down here about WHE. I would say, amazing potential, injury prone, no confidence and inconsistent. Wow welcome to our team, should fit right in. http://www.aflplayerratings.com.au/Rati ... IN-ELLIOTT

An excellent pick up and just the type of player we need. I see that we again had to pay market price when everyone else was getting players for unders. Caddy pick 26, WHE about the same if we make the 8 next year, more if not.
Well done boys!

Gotta be happy with that, and we definitely didn't pay overs.

He is crazy. Injury prone and picks Collingwood. Predict he will debut for the Pies in 2019.

This is the one I really wanted, can't wait to see him next year. Explosive, great leap and beautiful user of the ball.

Going to be a match up headache for opposition teams, love it.

I watched him in the NEAFL final. He was two levels above and just seemed to do whatever he wanted.
He is wasted at that level and I suspect they knew he was leaving.
If he delivers on his potential we could have a winner.

few people have said he reminds them of Gary Rohan.

Your Thoughts?
