Northern Blues 2019 - DJC - 02-20-2019

Josh Fraser sets up for the 2019 season:

So many variables impact on our VFL fortunes but we could be in for a good season.  If I can get a leave pass, I wouldn't mind getting along to next week's VFL/AFL-JLT double header.

Fraser impresses me.  I can see him progressing to a senior coaching role.

Having him and Teague about should have a significant impact on player development. Listening to Fraser at VFL intervals he strikes me as perhaps the best VFL coach we've had for a long time.

He does speak very well indeed, surprisingly so.

Perhaps these blokes get public speaking training?

I'm sure that's part of their professional development.

They do media training from the moment they're drafted.

You can track the improvement from their first nervous interview through to polished performances in their second and third years.

There’s a huge difference between the public speaking ability of AFL players and coaches and their NRL counterparts.

Since Teague......

It seems that the NBs have rookied Oskar Minton.  I wasn’t aware that VFL teams had rookies but, if true, good luck to Oskar.

Keiran Collins has a big chance to step up and become a senior player if he can take the next step.....we need another KP backman IMO and one who
has some muscle and can handle stronger forwards.
Sam Fisher is the other who if he can continue his form from last season also has a chance to get a senior chance....
Still have that one spot left to fill at the mid season draft if the club decide to go that way so the above two should be aiming to have a real crack in the 1st half of the season...

I wonder if KC is working with Crippa's sprint coach?

Fwiw, I think I'd have our entire list working with Crippa's sprint coach! :o
