[Jindrrk]

So none of the NM senior defenders in the bests = bullshit.

Alex Morgan? SERIOUSLY??????

He was in my HMs...was good but not in the best 5 IMO. One could argue the point he was in other people's eyes I guess.

 

[Billy Not Really]

How about King..KK for short

Or if you're a DBZ fan, King Ky.

Did Mitch Hibberd tip Gatorade on his own head?

Complete with a pet monkey?

 

[Horizons_00]

Preuss/Larkey/Clarke/Hibberd/Zurhaar all too good for VFL. Unfortunately no spots up for grabs. Just need to keep doing what they are doing and their opportunity will come.

Hence why our performances have been consistent this year

Everyone in the best 22 will be replaced this year if they drop off because our depth is pushing down the door

Very fit list at the moment and we are reaping the benefits

So was I.

What happens to Dec?


On iPhone using BigFooty.com mobile app

Something to do with his ankle apparently

 

[The Y Factor]

All clubs have scouts and most can see through the bullshit.

I don't think it's bullshit.

The main backs had it easy - played well but not much pressure. We killed them in the middle and when it went deep into defence Preuss was there as much as anyone and BZmac, Znieldon, Durdin all solid but not spectacular.

Alex was in the mixthrough the middle and worked end to end a bit so rewarded for hard work I guess.

Tell ya what, I could get used to watching our VFL squad on the telly every week, that’s for sure

Think they've given Clarke's goal to Hibberd.

I think blind freddy can see Walker is going to be a hell of a footballer when he's built like Shaun Atley as apposed to Edward Snowden.

200+ gamer.

One of those players that I almost wish I could just fast forward 2 years to see what he can do. Wouldn't want to miss our double premiership this year though...

Makes shit happen. Looking like a very good pickup.

Is number 64 Ben's brother ?

 

[Hearts to hearts]

And can I just add - with Larkey, Preuss, Durdin, McKay and Neilson, the last question a sensible person would ask is where our next talls will come from.

The fun part is watching Zurhaar, LDU, Clarke, Hrovat and then Walker and Hayden and suddenly seeing a good next generation of smaller players.

Tell that to Chris Judd.

Crickets re LDU's performance. He was sat on pretty hard last week. Anyone notice a tag yesterday?

No real tag today, just struggled, but did do some nice things in the second half. Just needs time. Seems to be skirting around the packs more than anything atm.

I didn't see any hard tag myself but despite the score line, Sandi did play out the 4 quarters and tried hard all day so there was reasonably good pressure all day.

To me he played an ok game and had some nice possessions but didn't dominate or stand out.

Thing that gets me with him is his size

Whenever he gets the ball you notice it, he's so big and broad and he just cruises along. He's almost imperious

He's going to be fine long term

Who's spot is he fighting for? Is it Dumont's?

 

[year of the roo]

Probably Atleys IMO. Or Mason Wood (if W80 goes out).

Dumont is keeping JK/Gaff's seat warm on the wing.

Good answer, I can't see Ashley's so much but certainly Woods when Waite is out could be a possibility if Wood proves good enough to keep Larkey out and nail down a permanent role.

Is LDU fast? Doesn't seem as fast as Atley? Looks more like a V8 cruiser like Cunnington.

So many players to find spots for! Not easy
