Player Watch Ned Long

[The Royal Sampler]

We don’t discriminate, we’re an equal opportunity injury club.

Ah yes, injurtunity. The Collingwood way.

With Mitchell out for awhile will give Long a Good Chance of playing Simmlar to Mitchell

How did he go today?

Per Pies site:

Positive return for Ned Long


After 63-days out of the game due to a calf injury, 2024 mid-season draftee Ned Long showed promising signs upon his return at VFL level. He kicked a classy goal in the wet in the second quarter, complimented by a second in the fourth. Long finished with 13 disposals, six tackles, five clearances, and two goals.

Really?
After one VFL game. Think he will need a few more before being seriously considered.

 

[Do_Beta_Rapport]

We obviously play Carlton again, but it’s potentially another couple of times this season.

Given his physical size and the position he plays, would like to see him tag Cripps and see how he goes in the next H&A we have with them.

 

[Mostfamousclub_Pies]

Hopefully he plays like Ben Long

Well done Ned!

 

[Gone Critical]

Go Ned. Good luck and congrats

 

[Jen2310]

 

[Robroy22]

Good on you lad, go well.

 

[Harry O]

Well done to a great young lad

 

[jimmy35]

Well done Ned.

 

[Aussie pie]

Was a standout at the start of our VFL season which got him onto our AFL list. Hope he shows the form that got him on in the first place.
I hope he goes well.

 

[domus]

Great name and great body! That's a good start.

 

[jmac70]

I’m going to call him Bushranger.

 

[JLC]

Great news.

 

[The Magnificent Seven]

No one is playing VFL for the money in the first place, but also, isn't Tom Phillips' dad incredibly rich anyway?

I'm pretty sure Superboost was him playing with house money in terms of making it a success.

(OT but you may be thinking of Tom Langdon's Dad who owns a spice business)

Anyway... GO NED!
