VFL VFL 2023 - [Rnd11 vs * - Sunday June 4 - 1:35pm @NEC Hangar]

[Flawed Genius]

Hugh Stagg = The Do

 

[Themanbun]

Couple of undrafted players/mature players who I'd be really interested in having on our VFL list. Could look to develop them and take them in the SPP or Mid season if we get an LTI.

Blake Schlensog - Mature age Key Defender
Sam Paea - Key forward, Calder Cannons
Josh Rentsch - Key forward, GW Rebels
Liam Podhajski - Ruckman, Calder Cannons
Jack Avery - Intercepting half back, Perth Demons
Finn Gorringe -Lockdown half back, East Fremantle
Hugh Stagg - Inside Mid, Glenelg
Joel Trudgeon - Inside Mid, Northern Knights
Will Splann - Key Position Player, Tasmanian Devils

Will Splann = The Business

 

[King Corey]

Sam Paea = The Onomato

 

[Friday Night Lights]

Hugh Stagg = The Do

Ditto Sam Paea

 

[thumping]

Not unknown for Herons to migrate up and down the east coast in search of suitable habitat.

Sir David Attenborough’s voice in my noggin while reading that! lol

 

[SammyRoo]

Hugh Stagg = The Do

Stagg = the horn

 

[Kangas_11]

Will Splann = The Business

Will Splann = The Please Ex

 

[Harvey Manfrenjensenden]

Will Splann = The Please Ex

Will Splann = The Man

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

It’ll be interesting to see if we can retain Clayton and Roos.

 

[The Nostradamus]

It’ll be interesting to see if we can retain Clayton and Roos.

Would hope so considering we have both their dads in our staff

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Would hope so considering we have both their dads in our staff

Both together added a lot of much needed grunt to our young vfl midfield.

 

[Kangaroos4eva]

Any word on this bloke?

 

[giantroo]

Any word on this bloke?

No but one of my mates asked Paul about who else North was speaking to and he mentioned that we were a chance to land Marty Hore (Dees) and we've asked the question of Jack Lonie (Saints). Also two Sandy Dragon boys will train with us. I'm not aware of the names yet.

Lonie would be a good pick up.

 

[shinboner magic]

Lonie would be a good pick up.

Th vfl umpires don’t give soft frees to duckers

 

[Luke72]

With the talent we have assembled- the vfl will be must watch.
The club needs to televise all matches on their website if it’s not on tv.

And get a commentator. I’d like our own biased one.

 

[Sphynx]

Lonie would be a good pick up.

He'd be OK.

Given the lack of KPP's on the list, the priority should be some key backs (noting the port colts KPD).

With Spicer, Curtis and others and a glut of half backs and midfielders, we just need some tall timber and a clean injury list for a chance.

 

[The Y Factor]

 

[shinboner magic]

And get a commentator. I’d like our own biased one.

Yeah the epl sides have that on their websites

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Just hope their are a couple of talls in there. We shouldn't struggle as much as previous years for talls, but a few genuine key defenders on the VFL list would go a long way to making us more competitive.

As usual, Paul Amy comes through with the goods again.

will get the chance to revive his career with North Melbourne after the Roos invited him to train over the summer.

The 25-year-old backman will start training with North next week in the hope of claiming a final list spot as a supplementary list selection at the end of the pre-season.

The luckless defender, a mature-aged recruit when drafted by the Demons three years ago, has had two seasons ruined by injury after a promising debut season.

Hore played 14 games in his first year at Melbourne and looked comfortable at the level after several years as a reliable VFL player.


He injured a quad muscle badly when weight training at the Demons and missed all of 2020. In January, he ruptured the ACL in his left knee in a pre-season training session.

North, who have gone young in recent years attacking the draft, have brought in big-bodied midfielder Hugh Greenwood

Hore could potentially be another mature body brought in to help add depth to the North back line.

If he doesn’t win North’s vacant list spot he will remain with the club, playing in the VFL team.

Solid prospect with neat kicking skills and marking. A tad on the slow side though.

A little surprised we aren't looking at a KPD to train with us*.

*Never mind. Looks to be a few VFL prospects.

Few more names:

Will Lewis (KPF) from old Brighton.

The Tonners came from 10 points down against a gallant OMs on Saturday and ran out 25-point winners on the back of a 10-goal-to-four second half. Referring to Will Lewis as ‘Lennox’ in R7 was seemingly one game too early but he has since been putting opposition defences on the canvas with hauls of nine and five over the past two games. He’s stood up in the absence of Jack Watts and become the dominant forward in William Buck Premier. Of course, it helps with the Brighton midfield streaming towards him. And that midfield all starts with Lachlan Filipovic who is having an outstanding season in the ruck. As if Hill, Fisher and Pavlou needed anymore assistance, Filipovic too has taken his game to another level.

Interesting means maybe we found cash for lynch as a coach and don’t have to take him on the rookie list

 

[hoffseason gains]

Glad that we’re looking to address key defensive depth in some way, these guys aren’t gonna be stars but they are at least bodies and that’s all we need to get us through this season.
