Ug how is young Murray going ?
"be tough, only when it gets tough"
He looked OK, I thought he did a few good things and I'll try and follow him a bit more carefully now I know who he is. Took a few marks and kicked at least one good goal while I was there. I think it is fair to say that neither him of Leonardis will be anywhere near senior selection this year but that's OK.
It does look like he's embraced the Dane Rampe school of personal grooming

I'm ready to make a call on this year's addition to Ludwig's Looming Legends*:
2013: Jake Lloyd
2014: George Hewett
2015: Abe Davis
2016: Colin O'Riordan
Tom Papley would have been a prime contender except that he's been so good he didn't have to play in the ressies.
Colin will be a regular in the senior side, perhaps as early as the start of next season.
*So you say you've never heard of Ludwig's Looming Legends. Well, obviously you aren't a subscriber to Ludwig's Footy Journal. Say you've never heard of such a journal. I'm planning to come out with an English Language version before Buddy's contract ends, so hang in there.
I reckon he'll be ready to rumble for sure next year based on what I saw. His physique (a burly bloke for his age), his positional awareness, decent skills which will surely improve further, his speed and most of all his aggression really stood out. he looks every bit a footballer
I can see him tearing up a half back flank and really giving defenders a hard time of it, a very exciting prospect. I'll be really interested to see how we manage this kid but I'd be surprised if we blood him this year.
