Nascent

Mentioned in another thread, could be nothing in it but Harmes was in a tracksuit before the end of the game. One to keep an eye on this week perhaps.

Harmes in a tracksuit before the final siren. Goody says we came through unscathed but perhaps one to watch during the week. Was good to grind out a win with a few players down on form today.

Keep getting an error message for the stream, some updates would be nice please.

A Carlton loss makes the freo song bearable.

Named 2nd best player for Dandenong. Think he's been in the bests 3 out of 4 games so far.

Nothing more certain. I think you're right actually! Tongue in cheek nonetheless. The club will probably be happy to grind out a 4-6 goal win and nothing is a given in footy.

Never like to get too far ahead of myself but in 3 weeks time we have Eagles followed by the Kangaroos.

In this entirely premature exercise I think it will be... Dees (1) v Freo (4) Lions (2) v Swans (3) Saints (5) v Blues (8) Dogs (6) v Cats (7) Richmond to resume their rightful place in 9th.

I'd take Ash, Bruhn or Callaghan before they get ruined.

Another selfish shot from an overpaid 'look at me' player.

So, who can we poach from GWS? Surely they will lose players from this souless sinking ship franchise.

Canberra's broadcasting technology still more impressive than GWS.

Not sure there's anything to take out of this game. Still not convinced by St Kilda.

Evidence here that you can change your starting 18 with an extended interchange bench.

Still a massive interest for me. Would just about be my dream job to work in recruiting/scouting. And you never known where our picks will be after our wheelin and dealin in trade period

He's improving but a fair way off still I'd imagine. Initially pegged as a winger but wasn't finding much of the ball. Looks ok in the back half but won't be breaking into the afl team there anytime soon. I'm still big on Laurie but Bedford, Brown, Baker and Woewodin probably the best performing thus far.

Good to see Daw named. That's got to be the best forward line in the VFL.

I'm under the impression that you can still play around with your starting 18 when you have an extended interchange bench. Edit. I also thought the game was on Saturday so don't take my word for it

Edit. Ignore, we're playing Sunday. Shift work is frying my brain.

If Jackson goes to West Coast we may very well be discussing this kid. I hope that doesn't happen.

PMBangers from https://central.rookieme.com/ answers a question about Finn on a draft thread from bigfooty. Yeah he really caught my eye in Round 1 vs Eastern, I've made the Wanganeen-Milera comparison with his movement and kicking at short to medium distances, uses it really well by hand and is surprisingly comfortable with contact for a slim frame, in comparison to some of the other medium defender options in the draft frame he's looking pretty high up, especially if he can keep improving each week. I could see him going first round if he gets an opportunity in the midfield, but currently I think a guy like Conrad Williams provides a similar skill set and he's more proven over time.

Blue sky, red earth. I get why they've swapped it around for the story telling, which I assume they will release an article on, and still easily identifiable as Melbourne. Not my favourite design but I like it nonetheless.

If Geelong win there will be a two game gap already (3 for us) between the top 7 and the rest of the competition. Don't think I've seen a ladder separation like that this early on in the season.
