Sparrow has been far more impressive than Harmes. I’ll cut him some slack as he’s missed a few weeks with injury. But I’m not impressed by his game tonight against a non existent opposition.
Weideman is very good. But he’s also very lazy. Defensive efforts are non existent. If he wants to get a senior game he needs to watch how hard Tmac works off the ball, because that’s his competition.
I have to say the best part about this game is seeing Casey play a very similar game style to Melbourne. Means any of these guys pushing for selection can walk into the senior team and fit into the system and structure straight away.
Completely agree.
We need to keep Weideman and we need to start rewarding him. It’s just hard when McDonald is in blinding form not seen since 2018. Nobody expected it. I don’t think Melbourne expected it.
My only knock on Weideman is he’s quite poor defensively, which is why I think he hasn’t played seniors yet. Really needs to do more when he doesn’t win the ball.
