Bedford Makes a Flash

Yes a touch of the 'Flash,' acceleration, agility, kicking. Very positive

[ding 5,126]

Seems like a nice kid. 

Hope he makes it.

 

 

 

 

*I hope they all make it

Some pre draft experts last year were of the opinion he has the best potential X factor of all players in last year's draft. Look forward to seeing it in 2020 and beyond.

Plead diminished responsibility 

[Mazer Rackham 14,970]

I thought that was illegal? At the least, will get you in trouble with the rozzers.

[Satyriconhome 9,993]

Nice to see him mark the ball and in front of the coaches as well

Still only 19, watched him last year at Casey where he made steady progress

 

[dl4e 5,642]

Still needs another year at casey.

Very nice game yesterday.  His last goal was a beauty.   He has speed, skill and a huge tank.

Must be a chance for Round 1.

With all due respect to Bedford, he is no chance for a gig come Round 1.  Too many in front of him.

However, his game yesterday was encouraging, even if it was only a scratch match.  If anything it shows some improvement to our overall depth for 2020.

Certainly was. It was the highlight of the day.

Agree with you Wiseblood on Bedford, but I think our depth has improved considerably this year. And because of that I think selecting a best 22 come round 1 will be a headache. Baring the injured players, I think there could be 31 players vying for 22 spots - and I cannot remember the last time we were in such a good shape.

Touch wood.

If Bedford is making a flash as the thread title states, the last thing I'd do is touch wood, Tony.

[Earl Hood 5,807]

Has always looked a likely prospect at training but last year had minimal disposals for Casey. Obviously couldn’t get his own ball but looked good on the weekend. He is now running second for endurance in the club time trials, is quick and agile so there is something to work with there. Let’s hope for consistent good form at Casey and maybe a cameo later in the year in the firsts.

The comedy festival is still 2 months away mate. You're using up your best material too early.

[Demons11 6,404]

Is there any highlights about for the praccy match? 

[TeamPlayedFine39 8,187]

Thought he looked very promising; perhaps not pushing for early rounds, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a debut at some stage this season.  He's a great athlete and has completely transformed physically - an exciting prospect.

 

[dworship 3,342]

One of things I'm really excited about is the synergy/ bond that Kozzie and Bedford seem to have developed already. I think they are very supportive of each other. I can just see something special building in future years and see them causing havoc like Ryan and Rioli have done  (well up till Rioli had a brain fade).

The Flasher in my local park was considering retirement but he decided to stick it out for another year.

[Demonstone 19,570]

Haha!  I once told my dear old mum this very same joke and she seemed to find if funny.

Later, I overheard her telling her sister but she told the punchline as "He decided to hang around a bit longer".

So, even though she stuffed up the punchline, incredibly the joke still worked!

Apparently he flashed at two elderly women last week. One had a stroke. The other wasn't quick enough.

Anyway, this thread was supposed to be about a Melbourne player in Bedford, not a Carlton player in  commodore.

Thanks for making me smile !

Played Round 1 (6 months ago)  and hasnt been seen since.  I would love to see him play tomorrow night.   Thats if he is even in the hub. 

Pickett and Bedford both in the team please now that we have two exciting talls (Weid and LJ) providing a nice contest.

 

Two talls -   LJ ,Weid

Two mid sized forwards  -  Fritsch, Melk

Two small forwards -  Pickett,  Bedford

Its a nice mix.
