Has anyone got any Info on how he has been training, if he is Fit, would he be pushing for an elevation if someone was to get injured?

For the Blues...

Kruz, Browne and Armfield have been going about their business in a neat and composed fashion. They are doing about 80% of the training and getting into the swing of things. All 3 have looked good during the skill sessions. Darren Pfeiffer is in the rehab group due to the ankle injury he obtained at the Tigers during their Non-Practice-Game prior to the Rookie draft :confused:

Hill, Joseph, Ellard have completed all the sessions and don't appear to have any major issues with keeping up. Ellard has impressed with his skills and Hill with his speed and agility.

Irishman Shields just got back to training on Saturday.

AJ is a great little mover but is the worst kick out there, if he was a spin bowler he'd a have an entire arsenal of deliveries that would befuddle batsmen.

He's doing well, keeping up nicely. He's a real nice fella aswell, a little bit shy:).

From what i have seen I think Blu is exaggerating a bit. Having said that I think Blu is also a fine observer of footballers (particularly the U18's).

His kicking over distance isn't fantastic but over 30-40m it is reasonably sound. Certainly enough to work with and potential to be a fast in and under extractor, so i wouldn't write him off just yet.

Sounds like Foley when he first started

If it is, Joseph looks fast and agile running next to the great man at training on the 20/02.

He does look a bit like Foley with his pace and agility, so I've had a change of heart and hope we don't rush into a decision and list Ellard as a nominate rookie.

Yes, that is AJ. I still think Ellard is probably ahead of him this year due to his football brain

I was a big fan of Joseph pre-draft (loved his pace, aggression and attitude - I wouldn't be surprised if he follows a similar development curve to Foley), so I'm quite interested to see how he progresses. How's he been performing for the Bullants so far this season?

From what i've heard and seen about this guy he's really getting me excited. Any more footage or replays or anything else on him?
