VFL Footscray 2023 Season

[Dog 36]

Buss is fine and a real plus is his decision making and foot skills are very sound and good.
Good combination good decision making with ability to execute

Hope we don’t regress his foot skills

 

[Charlie Bucket]

Still very undersized and not aerobically there. Big preseason ahead for the Buss.

At this stage O'Donnell looks more like pick 13 and Busslinger a category B rookie. Got a steal with JOD may have missed out with Busslinger but still early may bloom next season.

He’s improved out of sight.

However I am worried about his speed and agility. He Could get exposed at afl level, especially early on.

Thanks.

Although he was impressive, he seemed a fair way off when I saw him live mid season.

I think expectations should be regular footy by 25/26. Early 20’s, probably in line with most developing key defenders.

 

[Munnez]

I thought Buss looked comfy as. His disposable looks good and he reads play well. Not necessarily dominant.

With a preseason he should play seniors with Jones and JOD

Really liked the penetration on his kicking. And he used the ball very well, with a big preseason he could be a great asset

Semi Finals vs Box Hill 11:30 @ Box Hill

 

[DognBones]

I think Busslinger will play senior football next season providing he can strengthen his upper body. He has looked just fine when roaming around the backline intercepting and delivering to team mates. One on one against stronger opponents he has struggled somewhat. This is understandable for a 19 year old tall. Just get him in the gym.

Not suggesting he will get to the same level but see a lot of Harris Andrews

in the way Buss plays, Doesn't "stand out" athletically but seems to often get to the right positions tidy by foot and has the ability to take an intercept mark or two when needed,

Have been very impressed with his overall development and was fuming Keath kept getting games over him to finish the year

 

[jdz101]

I'll probably be at this one.

Live in Hawthorn so I don't have many excuses not to waddle on down and watch rhylee west

shit on inferior opposition.

 

[MYOB]

So win this week and it would be a prelim in Queenland against Gold Coast.

Make the GF and it would be a game against Brisbane, Werribee or Williamstown at Marvel

yes

Make the GF and it would be a game against Brisbane, Werribee or Williamstown at Marvel

at Ikon Park, not Marvel.

 

[dogwatch]

So only 3 more wins?

Easy peasy.

 

[hatescaptcha]

This team could go all the way if we get Sam Darcy back.

Grand Final will be Sunday 24th @ Ikon Park

 

[Graeme Cook]

Very interesting player. Great mark. Could we try him on the wing?

Raak Absolutely worth persevering with good hands 6.4 in the old pace and reads the play well.

 

[Optimistic Dog]

A day out from the semi final cannot even see our team selection but the bulldogs website is all over the AFLW. Nothing against women's footy but not my cup of tea.

 

[dergert]

I cannot find the team list anywhere.

The ones usually get billing over the twos.

It's up on the AFL website if you dig into the game day page

 

[Cudi]

Darcy is a massive in, balance so much better than last week.

 

[Golden_6]

16 AFL listed players. This is definitely a team that's good enough to win it all.

 

[AnUltimateRessie]

I cannot find the team list anywhere.

I wouldn't be walking back through the door if I was Chatfield.

He has not missed a game all year (and has done more than his part) and has been dropped for the semi final. Rough.

Out injured.

 

[doggiesin08]

Out injured.

Good to know. I haven’t watched much VFL but was surprised given Josh has a state combine invite and has apparently been in good form.

The tweet above would have been much more informative ending with “coming in for the injured Josh Chatfield” rather than “Josh Chatfield makes way for him”.

 

[BulldogMuscle]

Hopefully see a few of you down their tomorrow.
Bring a chair.
And an umbrella.

For those who haven't been, Box Hill oval has no seating and **** all cover.

 

[Munnez]

Is the game on 7+ again this week??
