  1. Yep nailed it. I'm all for fast ball movement but needs to be in the right players hands.
  2. Gosh anb brain fades are hard to watch. Lucky that came off
  3. Trying to play a bit too quick and risky. Been good to watch but lions on top now
  4. Melksham has had the best worst game or worst best game ever
  5. Geezz umps torching
  6. Spargo having a mare, lucky to get back in the team
  7. Really he got a kick after that play
  8. 3 clearances where due to dud bounces that went to gawns half of the circle
  9. Of course he kicks that
  10. 3 times
  11. Kozzieeeeee
  12. Umps need to call these bounces back. Twice now we've been dudded
  13. Boys look on
  14. Except that year he was a regular in the 22 that we won a premiership, or when he lead the league in effective kicks inside 50 the year after
  15. Grundy out jvr in, all the talk will be about a "failed" experiment. I'm still glad we have Grundy at the club and he still might be best 22 by end of the year. I'm glad the footy department are having a look at different combinations. I look forward to seeing what BBB and JVR look like together.
  16. I used to care about this stuff when we where perennial cellar dwellers. It was a sign of hope and that we had a bright future. Couldn't care less now, sure it's recognition of a good game by a young player but I would bet Mcvee is stoked being a regular in a top 4 team and a rising star nom is not a concern for him. Jordan gysberts got 2 noms & Lewis Taylor won the award so it's a bit of a nothing
  17. So badly out of form, surely 5 mins in the midfield to try get him into it, over the past 6 weeks wouldn't been when a try!?
  18. Watching channel 7 . Are we even playing?
  19. It's a disgrace
  20. Dud bounce should've been called back
  21. Agree VFL intensity is easy off AFL. I was trying to make a point that dropping jvr to the VFL isn't because he is being tested and that at his age and stage of development and his attitude would be exerting just as much energy.
  22. No doubt players can be managed in the VFL. Just don't think jvr is and he would be working just as hard as he would in the AFL on worse grounds
  23. VFL isn't a rest and a 20 year old with jvr's attitude and work ethic dosent know how to not go 100% in a game of footy. In many ways VFL can be more taxing on the body
  24. Because he hasn't got nearly enough of the pill this year
  25. He played VFL so not resting though
