The more depth we have the more competitive it is to get games and ensure we are not gifting players games. Will phi and JHF need to earn their stripes.
Jed is best 22 right now and I can’t see it changing for next either. He brings a lot to a young and developing side like ours.
Said the same thing myself today! At almost every contest he is in he is the underdog in terms of size and strength but he always holds his own and if he gets beat he makes them earn it.
Another who has benefited from opportunity this year and showed our development as a club isn’t as bad as...
He runs hard and earns each kick. His disposal certainly isn’t great but his running and follow up is what he does best. Biggest improver on our list this year.
Absolutely he is. Miles Bergman could be on the move back to Vic…

His last 2 games really worry me. Undersized and no desire for contest. In todays game small forwards need to be able to take contested marks and win their own footy, PS can do neither.
How good was our number 8 today! He continuously runs hard and follows up. If we had 22 blokes that tried as hard as Bailey each week we would be a better football side.
Agree with the others here, looks to lack a few kgs of muscle. That aside I thought he done ok and didn’t look out of place. A big preseason in a professional environment and we will hopefully have ourselves a player in 2023.
Absolutely. Jed is tackling machine, see ball get ball hombre. Even if he was pushed out of the midfield there would be a spot for him elsewhere.. the defensive fwd would suitable.
Thoughts on Melican from Sydney?
Not injured so guessing he is a victim to the McCartins holding the KPB positions.
Right age (25), Victorian lad and would provide us some depth down back.
Thoughts?
