Frammers
The positives
He is very athletic for his size , he kicks as well as anyone in the team…when he decides to . He “ should” be a good mark over head based on size and leap .
In 23 his fill in job as ruck when Camo and Cox were injured. Was admirable
The negatives
He can’t find body on body as a defender
He doesn’t take enough marks for his size
He doesn’t seem to understand either his athletic ability, his leap, his speed nor his the potential of his kicking . Will this change ?

Dean
He is a kid and we are still just learning what he is and maybe isn’t good at but so far so good.
That long standing foot issue may impact his mobility , leap and kicking …this needs assessment
Playing alongside Maynard, Moore and Howe is a wonderful education for a young player

Objectively if it came down to a choice just between these two and Cox wasn’t playing Frammers gets the nod because of his ruck ability , but Dean is the longer term defence potential
