Marchbank shouldnt be considered for seniors until hes dominating vfl games for a 3 week stretch. Would love to see him play the rest of the vfl season and be ready to go in 2025.

Already asked...Poole’s another winger. He’s zippy. But do we need another winger?
Do we ignore any wing options because of the Campo situation?
Hopefully not, as I believe Lucas will play as a backman at the next level unless his speed improves, Ben's attributes allows him to be more versatile
Wow Binnsy...
Perhaps plays as the sub again next week?
This.Not sure Binns as sub is good for club or him. Tough gig to expect him to come in to a game in Q4, adjust to the level and have any impact. I don't think he is physically capable yet... needs more time in the gym.
Expect Caroll gets a game ahead of him.

Binns more likely to be a Sidebottom type than a Mitchell clone.Binns is a real ball magnet. I just hope he's not one of those VFL guns who's game doesn't translate to AFL. I am confident in him, he's still improving. I'm still not sure what sort of player he will become. Perhaps he puts on weight and becomes a Sam/Tom Mitchell type onballer or perhaps he develops into a smart Steele Sidebottom type winger.
I can't see any of Lemmy, Akuei or Mirkov being on the list next season. Any tall who can't read the ball in the aid shouldn't be on a list. I think we will be looking for another ruck. I'm not taken with the hype around O'Keefe either. 4 players who if the ball is kicked to them are found in the wrong position more often than the right position to mark or spoil.
We are playing a bottom table VFL side. Anyone good enough to be around the best 22 of the AFL side should be domination and only one player did and that was Binns. Fantasia and Carroll were ok but ok doesn't suggest you are an AFL player. Cuningham needs to do more to keep himself in the game at this level. He should be someone who goes back to VFL and dominates. Gets his 25-35 possessions, kicks goals etc. I'm guessing the work rate and desire is not there.
Wilson is a skinny kid who has a competative edge, attacks the ball hard. Some of the dropped senior players could learn a bit from how he goes about it. He's a fair way off AFL but he will get there.
We had a clutch of senior players and we got very little out of them which is disappointing.

Yep. Playing the long game. Hopefully it encourages other African kids to pick up the game.He was a free hit NGA,
I reckon the issue is our forward structure. Our guys setup too close to each other so defenders like May and Moore can mind them and still help each other out. We need to be smarter and draw defenders away or create loose options if they don't followI50 entries are our weakness, especially with Cerra out. Who's best able to fill that gap? Binns?
I agree on Binns. I don't know about time. Been there a few years and need to show a bit more than they have. Reckon O'Keefe stays if we can't find another ruck. Reckon Lemmy is in the same boat, if no other key forwards bob up that would be his only chance. I'm not seeing enough from a lot of our young guys. If there is no improvement by the end of the season I don't see much happening.Binns more likely to be a Sidebottom type than a Mitchell clone.
Still time for Lemmey and O’Keefe. Wilson and Carroll showing enough.
Cuningham unlikely to be at Carlton next year IMO.
Agree. Bringing Marchbank straight into the seniors for his first game a few weeks ago was a mistake.Marchbank shouldnt be considered for seniors until hes dominating vfl games for a 3 week stretch. Would love to see him play the rest of the vfl season and be ready to go in 2025.
Both O'Keefe and Lemmey are second year players. 19 and 20 years old respectively.I agree on Binns. I don't know about time. Been there a few years and need to show a bit more than they have.

Agree on Cuningham.
Thought Binns and Wilson were the only AFL listed players who didn't treat this like a training run. Carroll was ok but we know his best at this level is better. Simply not good enough from the rest. Can't see the coaches being happy with this.
I think second year players need to show more, the odd overhead mark for instance. I don't think their list spots are safe by a long shot but there is plenty of time to play out yet. I've seen plenty of young talls who end up being good AFL players and these guys are well behind them.Binns was phenomenal. AS

We were the 2nd bottom team: they were above us on Percentage. I think we're firmly entrenched as 2nd bottom now.I think second year players need to show more, the odd overhead mark for instance.

We were playing the second bottom team in the VFL, the opposition could not have been worse and we had a lot of players do nothing outside of a few opportunistic possessions.
Binns is a genuine magnet and he plays at an intensity that was probably only matched by Wilson in this game.
Thanks Jim.To cast to a TV - assuming GoogleCast/AirPlay support - load up the AFL app on your phone/tablet, and on the app home screen tap the 'Live' section at the top, then bring up the VFL live stream and hit the cast button. Do not navigate to the VFL section of the app menu.
