Daniel Howe has magnificent hair.
 
Going by that list, hopefully nearly everyone. 3 recently delisted players, 2 ruckmen and a kid we just rookies. Where’s that picture of Clarko with his hand over his face?
It’s pretty damning stuff PMan.

Validates some of the decisions made by Rawlings & Viney though.

Credit to young Drury, zero pre-seasons, everyone else listed multiples
Drury's still out, but I think this kid could be the steal of the draft.

You don't become the Vic Metro captain without having something going for you.

May be one of those types that just wants it more than those more talented and (hopefully) gets every ounce out of himself.
Similar to a Kane Lambert maybe.

I've said a couple of times I would like to see LMac in the midfield to provide a bigger body and harder defensive edge. The above result is another reason why he should. The few times he has played midfield he looks like he belongs.

Greenhead is past it and the kids are not ready yet.

I think that’s why we’ve gotten in Tucker and Howe and at very worst Kayne Turner can play that role.

I personally think the way it will go is that we begin with Tucker in the midfield as our more defensive type and then slowly phase him out as Wardlaw begins to get fitter.

McDonald is our best non-tall defender and was our BOG in defence in a few games such as against Hawthorn in round 1, even though he’d be a good defensive midfielder he’s an ever better actual defender. A fit Phillips, Wardlaw & Tucker make our midfield a lot better defensively but taking McDonald out of our backline would make it considerably worse.

Nice work...A bit like another redhead we started on the rookie list who had captained the Victorian Metro team in the 2006 AFL Under 18 Championships. That worked out okay...Leigh Adams.
