Please don't take this the wrong but people that are saying he's our replacement for Scully or comparing him with Marc Murphy need to calm down a bit. I think we're all getting caught up In the romance of getting a decent father son to the club. I've seen JV play a number of times just like I saw Scully play TAC cup a number of times and Scully stood out far more than what JV does at the same age, same with Murphy. JV Is as tough as nails and shows a lot of promise and If It wasn't for father son would more than likely be a first round pick but no way he would be taken with the number 1 pick In next years draft. I do like the kid I just don't want people building him up like he's going to come In and be the greatest thing ever.
Chargers win by a couple of goals, hopefully the TAC Cup GF is on Fox like last year. Solid game by JV, killed the 3rd qtr. His tackling, pressure & his ability to win the ball in close are his strengths. Also looks dangerous when he goes forward.
Had a decent first half without dominating. Start of the 3rd he's had 5 or 6 touches in 5 min with a handful of tackles. Oakleigh kicked the first 2 of this qtr and Jack has been involved in both goals. I'm loving this
Dandy v Oakleigh at Visy Park, Chargers up by a point at qtr time. Viney being tagged heavily but managed a few touches and kicked a goal. 2nd qtr just underway.
Whatever people believe It's good to see some passion being shown, I just hope for everyone's sake we get some closer tomorrow. This Is the last time I'm posting In this thread.
Makes me wonder where we'd be if there were no expansion teams. We would be keeping Scully, last years draft and this years draft would have been a lot higher picks. Ah well [censored] happens!
As my old man always said,
People may not like what you've got to say or they may not agree with your decisions but as long as you can look a person in the eye and be honest you'll always gain respect.
I thought I may as well add to the rumours. I was out with a mate of mine last week who Is the media manager of an AFL club and he had heard through a couple of people that Ross Lyon Is strongly considering the Dees offer.
I don't care what anyone says, If your the U18 AA CHF and your struggling to get a kick playing VFL 2's something Is wrong. Maybe It Is fatigue or maybe he's carrying an injury but lets be honest VFL 2's Is a poor standard and he should be killing em.
