POSTGAME: Practice Match vs Richmond
who said i was writing them off from 2 practice games? cj has 76 afl games and i'd hope he plays in at least 5 more seasons with us, so could get up close to 200 games as he clearly has attributes to his game that are very good - they're just not his kicking, clearly, but he reads the play well and has speed and seems to have some strength in the contest laurie has been on our list since before we won the premiership; i don't see an afl-level player whatsoever tholstrup is a lovely long kick, a terrible short one, is not quick, doesn't seem to have much 'smarts' around him and is entering his third year at the start of 2021 i probably said the same of sparrow; at the end of the year he was a premiership player i hope to say the same of tholstrup at the conclusion of his third season too - like sparrow he's got a great attitude to his game, wants to bring his teammates into the game, but it think probably lacks the gut-running of sparrow at this point in time

POSTGAME: Practice Match vs Richmond
i wouldn't have laurie anywhere near our afl side sorry to say it, but when we have the likes of him, tholstrup, cj, and others besides in our best 23 we will continue to be a bottom side - they're not skilled enough to make a good side, which is i guess why cj was let go by dingley and we picked him up i saw the frost comparisons earlier but he's more like a jayden hunt for mine; he has some good aspects to his game but his kicking is routinely up-and-under with not enough penetration and direction

POSTGAME: Practice Match vs Richmond
poor to average he's an honest trier but limited skillset and does dumb things regularly he should be in our 23 for rd 1 as we're so short of fit players and we need him to actually be a warm, fit body
