    We'll also have to give Robinson a go in the seniors some time. He keeps playing consistently well.

    Thanks ugg, Liz, AG and others. Sounds like the team had a day out, and some very encouraging stuff happening for them.
    He reminds him of the guys, close-set, slow, and never rattled, who were play-makers on the team. (John Updike, seeing Josh Kennedy in a crystal ball)

    Is it probable that Nankervis will replace Derickx in the near future? Seems to have much more ability.

    It was very interesting to watch. GC were in the game, but just could not just NOT get clear near the goals. Kudos to X for a lot of hard work.

    the ressies played cohesively. They all appeared to know their jobs, and they did them. they knew the toppies names and used them. That's Crouchie for you. Again.

    . Young Jones is a keeper, hard nut, crash and bash and a bit of finness.
    . Mat Dick and George Hewitt were very evident in their work. Sounds stuffy, but when you mix them up with Daniel you have similar sizes, and 27, 28 and 29 to contend with.
    Looking forward to having Shiggsy back in the seniors, if we can keep him.

    T. Head, number 60, is proving that he really wants a professional gig. Rather desperate at times, but....

    We will have ruck stocks to burn in a couple of years time. We are going to have trade riches at our disposal (I am sure that is why they took on so many newbies), and I have no problem with that. Nanna did just fine - must have, we slaughtered them.

    I wouldn't have thought so. Tom has a lot more experience, and a ruckman's job is not one for the up and comers so to speak. they need a LOT of time to get their long tall bodies right for the job. Nana is good at this level, but he is still growing into it. Patience my pretties, patience.

    He's a rare exception. Brodie would most likely have been a top 10 pick if other teams required a ruckman before the pies selection.

    Next game is an Anzac Day match against the Lions at Mackay. So the ressies play a day before the seniors we will know for sure whether Tippett will be playing in Melbourne or not

    Any thoughts about how Xav Richards is going this year. Has Allir gone ahead of him?

    Wolftone was raving about him last year, but haven't heard much hype this year.
