Both Campos will be in trouble with a new LM imho, their average kicking and lack of pace won't help them stay on the list even being father/sons picks.
Need to see Ben at senior level to judge him better...

It might serve us well to ditch them, and an overbearing parent in the process.
Do tell…

Ben C gets to the right places and is good in tight I just don't think he's the type we need ATM.  Depends on who goes I guess.

Yep, he was good in the contest and is better handballing than kicking. It's why his Disposal efficiency probably won't read too bad. (yep 80%)
Even then I think we need to see some improvement (from both boys) with a decision on both of them needing to be made.
When Lucas is well they need a block of games at AFL level (probably not at the same time though).

Ben's problem will be, we probably have too many ahead of him for midfield time.

Scott supposedly sooking it up because his boys were not getting a game. This goes back to last year, can only imagine its worse now.

But can't hid the side of the barn.

Can't carry someone that is that poor by foot.

May just need someone to come with the right skills to correct what Ben is doing wrong with his kicking.  Fev or Mark Williams perhaps.

Why not his father!!!
