Woodman you are absolutely right. Our midfield has huge potential. Didak look a gun prospect but as with all in that catagory, you never really know how much they will improve.
You are right about Lonnie too. He has the makings of a great wingman. His game has already outgrown the HBF after 1 season and clubs will try and take him deep to stop his run if he plays there. I would also rather see him not try and stop a forward but attack instead.
How do u rate Didak?

Yep, Didak looks real good. Only saw his senior games this year, some of those on the telly, but two things stand out. First is his lateral mobility. It is a bit like Daicos how he goes sideways into empty space when there were five guys on his hammer just a second ago. The other is his incredibly long flat accurate left foot kicks. They are genuine bullets rarely more than twenty feet off the ground. I think his first kick in the seniors (home&away) was a goal vs North at Colonial. It was from outside 50, maybe outside 60. His second kick was on the boundary at 50, and was touched on the line. His little legs are so short that he'll probably never be a "Mark Fraser" type speedster, but his judgement is sound and his gifts most promising.

Interesting to see how many compare Didak with Daicos. It is dangerous to compare youngsters with past champs but the little legs thing is a common trait of players his size with balance and evasive skills.
Besides, Nick Davis is Peter Daicos!
I always thought so, but the goal against the Bombers confirmed it.
