The best thing about that article was that it sounded like Paul gardner was actually in Melbourne.

Not New York, Mt.Everest, The Steve Irwin, Kokoda Track, etc.etc..

Or the Chelsea Gardener show :D

But seriously, I think Yze is definately one to look out for this season!

If Yze is heading to retirement within time, perhaps we can groom him for the vacant forward scout position - He'd have a good eye for talent, surely B)

In and out faster than the eye can see Don't blink or you'll miss it!

Are you on drugs?

I'm not sure....how would I know if I was - should I check my eyes? Just having a poke at it!

Yes.

That was an inaccurate poke at it!

Yes.

It takes one to see one!.....An eye that it is

As for Yze, are the medical staff keeping a good eye on him?

I should have probably mentioned that Yze was playing in the midfield until he got injured.

I wish him all the best, it's not as if he he hasn't done well in the midfield before and I reckon he has at least one ripping season in him

From memory, Yze was one of the players that really responded well to a change of coach ten years ago, so I wouldn't mind betting that this year may cause a similar result.

So in finishing - Keep your eye on the Red and the Blue!

.......because in early February every footballer looks soooo good.

Its hard from scratch matches and training for outside observers to really identify who is going to step up to AFL pressure.

Nevertheless it is good that every player is putting his best efforts. Thats a positive. And also players previously under an injury cloud being able to participate in the pre season process.

Yup, ie Chris Johnson in that prac match against the toiges last year...

It's getting quiet on this thread.....Anyone for Poker?

Apologies if I missed this - But did Steffan Martin play? If so, how did he go?

Yes he did. It seems the pressure got to him initially as he was playing at half back for a team that got whacked. He fumbled a few times. He seems pretty raw footy smarts wise but looks good physically. Just a question of time I think.

Thanks Timmy - Lets hope it does not take too long; particulary with injuries raising their heads a week before the pre-season has begun....
