Aaron Bruce 7th time among the best this year-- enough for another time around? Opinions from regular (or even irregular) 2nds watchers on whether he's got something, welcome.
The nicely-designed AFL Canberra footy record was fortunately wrong in describing Colombo as out indefinitely, and fantastic to see him back in the best players. Even though he's not huge, we'll be needing all the defenders with a bit of height that we can get, in coming years.
No-one seems to doubt that we've got something special in Currie, and this game just seems to confirm it.
Fosdike playing, but not making best players, would really minimise the chances he gets a call-up for the Dogs seeing that if Bird and MOL come up, we'll already be trying to squeeze 24 into 22. He must surely have some trade value, and the 'if you're over about 24 yoa and can't crack a regular game, you're gone' rule has yet to be broken in Roos' reign as far as I recall. So has Fossie played his last game for the Swans' firsts?
Unsurprisingly, the top-ups were heavily loaded with guys with a bit of top-up experience, rather than the unending procession of first-timers who often played in the minor round. No doubt made a big difference in the final analysis.
