Thanks for the link BIB.
One thing that really stands out is Hill's speed. Quite quick for a guy who is all of 190cm, and his agility is pretty sound as well.
Joseph looked pretty good as well. Good turn of speed, but even in that little package, turned the ball over once or twice, and needs to work on his awareness around the ground.

His burst speed was very good. I'd like to have seen more footage of his disposal though.
Joseph, I liked. Also has pace and didn't seem to lack any courage. Got a lot of the ball around the ground - something that Bentick probably hasn't done enough. From that footage, seems confident to take on the opposition and got himself into trouble a couple of times because of it. Still, I'm very excited to see how he develops.

Agree with all that has been said here......and thanks for the link.
Lets just put it in perspective.......they are rookies. They slipped to this point due to deficiencies in their games, probably related mostly to kicking.
If they find this is a skill they can learn then great, welcome to the senior list. If they can't, welcome to the VFL.:thumbsu:

They look the goods at the level, which is to be expected.
Do you think AFL players will work out that the Joeseph kiddy likes to step off the right foot? Got plenty of courage by the looks of him.
The Hill kiddy has a bit of Paul Roos about him. If he turns out half as good as Roosy I will be stoked.
Joseph, capable without being flashy, hill, has pace etc, but appears to have a high ball release. Hill in the back half one day maybe.

Joseph's kicking over short distance is fine...it is when he really has to punch through it that he tends to mis-hit it and kick floaters.....perhaps this will improve with some weights programs and strength in his quads.
