No Viney?

Was he eligible?

This is from Chris25 from Bigfooty.

He seems to follow the younger leagues a lot.

No surprises really. Eight underaged players, seven from Vic Metro, two Tasmanians and one already with GWS.

And for those of you who prefer seeing an actual lineup rather than a list...

Would be hard to fit into that midfield for jack, alot of quality Wingard and Whitfield on half forward etc

aaaaahhhhh who give a toss.

He is still a gun junior and there is nothing to indicate that he won't continue to dominate next year. He would be a guaranteed first round in 2012 regardless of the father son (and injury of course) and he will be a perfect foil for the young talent we are developing in the mids.

The hard in and unders- McKenzie, Viney, Moloney, Jones

The runners and creators- Scully, Trengove, Gysberts, Nicholson, Evans, Sylvia

And then there's blokes like Grimes, Tapscott, Blease who haven't yet had the games/chance to run through the guts...

I just can't wait to have him playing in 2013 in red and blue.....
