Poor again Friday nite, should be worried about his meeting with the coach this week. Would not be surprised if he asks for a trade or is told he will be shopped around.

An average, typical small forward. Will have 2-3 great games and go missing in important games. Nothing special, a good filler player, that's about it.

Couldn't be bothered reading all the quotes, but my thoughts, is a major spud, pea heart, front runner needs to be traded ASAP!

Like Nathan Buckley, 2015 will tell whether Fas has what it takes. I have no inaght into his ego or lack thereof and he may have had injury problems this year. Still, I feel that he rarely has much influence, does not get his own ball much, not a great overhead mark, not quick, amd not a reliable shot for goal on the run. For a forward, those are a pretty concerning set of limitations. But i hope 2015 changes my mind.

missed a sitter in the 2nd; just killed us.

I'd shop him around, but we won't get any offers

One of the few reliable kicks at Collingwood, but that always seems to be a negative as everyone prefers the honest battler who cant kick for shit and then wonder why the team cant beat anyone...

It's not that he's not a reliable kick.
We just can't rely on him to get any.

His biggest issue is for a small crumbling forward he is not very quick.

Agree, lack of leg speed is his biggest deficit. Hopefully there is some improvement in that with a full preseason. Either that or he needs to improve his 1x1 contesting, particularly his marking.

He is a 2014 version of Shane Woewodin. Can't get it done on the "big stage".

Faz is a keeper.

A full pre-season, no injury, and he'll kill it.

Foot speed has always been a problem
So has injuries and lack of preseasons
The medical issue about his ankle is a worry. Will need ongoing treatment throughout his career.
Not sure of his contract but needs to get fit and have a good preseason and then a great 2015
Hopefully as a part of the 2015 grand finalists.
