LOHMAN WANTS 7!

 

[iBeng]

Not quite!

 

[iBeng]

THERE WE GO! 7 goals for Lohman!

 

[Mr Ripper]

Played a man short the last five minutes with Beast and Jaspa finishing the game on the bench.

 

[LongLion]

Liked Henry Smiths game

 

[mattsmob]

Lohmann has to be getting close now, has really found form the last few weeks

 

[MSB ROYS]

Werribee just beat the Suns...

Will need an injury though to get a game at this stage. Building nicely though.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Suns VFL go down to Werribee by 2 points, we're top of the ladder babeeee

 

[dlanod]

Tuned in to see young Glass and no stream

What a pane.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Lohmann has to be getting close now, has really found form the last few weeks

I think he'd be in if we got an injury to Charlie or Zac, but forgive me if I hope that doesn't happen. Good form though, looking lively.

You can't just throw four nouns together and claim that's a sentence.

Reckon he might find himself as the sub next week.

 

[lionshine]

Great to see the potential of Lohmann and Fletcher on full display. Both look like AFL quality players

 

[Dalions]

Though Jimmy Tunstill did some really good things too.

 

[Nunez]

What a Jackson.

[MSB ROYS]

Just realised that Lohman's 7.1.43 was more than Coburg's 6.2.38.

 

[AFLQLD]

Blake Coleman seems to be developing quite well. He had a few excellent moments, including a couple of powerful centre clearances. I think he might be a less skilled kick than his brother but possibly a little more explosive with ball in hand.

Tunstill also looks impressive and perhaps with time has the potential to make it at the top level.

I can see some raids coming or other clubs at least asking questions regarding:

Robertson
Lohmann
Answerth
Fullarton
Blake Coleman
Henry Smith
Lane
Prior
Tunstill
Fort

I think most of them could find a home at another club, either as best 22-ish players at struggling clubs or developing/backup players at stronger clubs. The attraction would be more opportunities for most of these guys.

I would like to think we can hold on to most but a couple a least would surely feel it is time to move on.

With Zorko, Rich, Gunston and possibly Lester close to the end there will be at least some attraction to staying.

From your list in order of my preference to keep would be >

Lohmann
Tunstill
Prior
Robertson
Fullarton
Smith
Fort
Answerth
Lane
Coleman

IMO Lohmann and Tunstill have the highest ceiling, Fullarton needed as key position depth, need a developing ruck in Smith, we are stacked for options in Answerth's position, Coleman just not fit enough to play senior footy.

Wonder if Fort will be a part of the Ruck Merry go Round at the end of the year.
He is an AFL quality Ruck stuck in the VFL and deserves a go somewhere.

Can't see us giving him up

Except for West Coast and Geelong, I can’t think of any other teams that desperately need a ruck, and there’s a fair bit of noise the Darcy will leave Fremantle at the end of the year for Geelong/Victoria.

Edit: And Sydney.

A lot of clubs have good young developing rucks in their reserves.

Not sure I’d have Smith ahead of Lane.

Really need to watch them in a VFL game where Fort is out.
