he is a little boy,or would you play him on martin

That’s a bizarre reaction.

To state the obvious, there’s very few players who can match up with Martin and no team in the comp would put a first gamer up against him. The suggestion is that Bowey may be good enough to perform a role at some point in the season. And we also wouldn’t be asking him to ruck a full game against Nic Nat. Spargo’s the preferred option there

So, to your way of thinking, unless he plays on Martin, he can’t actually step on to the field for us. Righto

What a weird comment. His size won't hold him back and it's likely he'll get an opportunity this year. Kid has pace, composure and skill. Will slot nicely anywhere on the ground other than key position or inside mid.

crap

Thank you for the well articulated discussion. Could you enlighten me to which part is crap?

Does he not have skill, pace or composure?

Sorry haven’t had time to read the whole thread. For those that we’re watching, how was Brown’s and the Weid’s overall games. I’ve read their goal tally’s, how was their making, how easy did their goals come, defensive efforts....

I might have to go back and read the thread.

Brown was on fire early and Weid fired up late marking was ok nothing special and their shots on goal weren’t too hard would be great to see Brown debut against his old club

Weid kicked 2-2 in that last quarter. Could easily have been 4-0

BB missed a few as well earlier in the game

Aaron VDB Injured again at training, I think he might be nearly done. His body lets him down too often!

Bowey, Jetta, Daw, Deakyn Smith, Bedford all look very good! BB Must play next week with Weeds also a strong chance. I thought Majak rucked extremely well, Bowey astute ball winner and user!

I have a gut feeling BBB might play next week. Call it a roomur if you like.

Two emergencies, one medical sub.

Perhaps 3 emergencies with Petty.

Oh thanks. Think Petty hurt his shoulder.

I thought he acquitted himself quite well myself. In my opinion I don't think we will see him in the team anytime soon but I reckon he's good enough to get a couple games later in the year despite his size.

I think you might be missing the middle-ground option.  You can play your first game of football without be tasked with manning one of the best players ever at the peak of his powers.

You seem to be trying to fire off as many edgy comments as you can in a short amount of time.  

You’re disrespectful... we get it.

Put down the phone, go outside, and yell at the neighbourhood children.

Picket, so Bowey stepped up from a reasonable performance the week before? Can you see him forward of the Centre in the ones, off a flank? 

He might become our version of Caleb Daniels!!?

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
