Simon Godfrey was a good tagger as well. If Bartram is as good as Clint Jones then sure keep him, but I doubt he is. Bail and McKenzie should be our two defensive orientated midfielders, Bartram is just depth.

Possibly...Let's wait till we get to september to feel the real pressure...You could be right, i just think Barty is under rated for what he does...

IF he wasn't there, we WOULD miss him.

Bartram is better than Godfrey.

Nev's not exactly slow is he?

Love this guy - reminds me a lot of Whelan at his best.

I reckon his kicking has definitely improved in the last year or so as well...

With a pre-season under his belt, he'll be just what we need, he chases his guts out. Like Davey used to. :mellow:

He is slow, but he's also a good footballer.

He was playing well before he hurt his hand, and he had a game busting 5 minutes yesterday.

Has a determination about him that will see him continue to improve. As mentioned, how much he can improve will determine how long he's around.

A big preseason will help.

he will have a bit of an interupted start to the pre season, from what i hear he will be going under the knife after next week, and having his shoulder worked out, which has been troubling him this year.

hopefully he can have a big pre season, as i think he is definitely an important depth player to the team.

I also thought he was slow but on the club website his bio reads as follows:

The lively speedster struggled in his second season, battling to overcome a groin injury at the start of 2010 and found himself in the VFL later in the year. Missed the first eight games, played the next six but was confined to VFL duties after that. Has great pace and excellent skills through the middle of the ground

I think that it possibly indicates that he just doesn't have a big enough tank at the moment to maintain a high speed for much game time at all. Hopefully after a big preseason we will be able to see his said speed showcased.

Next week, hopeless, too soon. We should be doing the right thing by ALL Involved for the finals.

The Sooner they make the VFL start Earlier & Finish @ least 2 weeks before the AFL Grand final the better!

Theres our pre season comp right there, just needs tweeking!

Just a point on Nev's lack of speed, they guy he was running ahead of to gather the ball for his goal was Harbrow, who as we all know is really slow then he palmed him off and ran away from him.

Just one more point on coaching, Nev and Tapscott spent the game on Harbrow and pantsed him, he had no influence whatsoever, it is not the amount of touches you have if you are playing your role

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full
