VFL Round 10: Northern Blues vs, Werribee at Carlton

[MilkIt]

Boek used to sell a lot of candy in the WAFL.

Love that he's IN the stoppages not lurking as a get out handball option.
He and Sheehan have the same bouncing style.????

He doesn't look like he has elite pace (as we were told by Shane Rogers) but he looks like he has that extra time in close quarters like Pendlebury. Part of that comes from making the opponent unsure of what your next move will be (selling candy etc.). Still looks very light.

Aurrichio looks a likely rookie.

Fosters goal square grab shows something.

Whiley might be in the Cripps double act in 2016.

Not sold on the coyote, if he fails to get a game and continues to do okay in the twos, that would tell me SOS doesn't rate him.

Watto needs to get a go this week. With Jamo still out we could play Hendo down back and have Watson, Casboult and Kreuzer up forward. With the Suns depleted stocks at the moment, an extra tall to cover would be a stretch. Boekhorst in for Gibbs this week.

Some people need to read job descriptions.
Is SOS head of recruiting or match committee ?

Edit:
SOS is doing an outstanding job at the moment, I've never seen our boots so well studded... Kudos SOS, next week you're in the membership dept...

List Management, so neither....

He'd have a fair idea about the fellas from GWS and it is naive to think he wouldn't let his opinion be known.

Club doesn't publish the MC anymore but I wouldn't be surprised if SOS was on it.

Thanks for the link.

Gees Watson can kick given time with the ball 

Can he what....that first one had to be 60m !  And kicking from 50 was a breeze.  He looked ok mobility wise too.  One bit of play caught my eye, Jaksch attack on the the ball, clean pick up on the run & goal from around 45.  Showed some class there.

I'd actually like to think Silvagni is having some input into team selections.
Hopefully he and Barker are working together to give some of the fringe players an opportunity to show their stuff before hard decisions are made.

We are going to need to cull a few players at the end of the year. As we've seen some players can perform better playing a different style of game. You'd hate to let one of these guys go and see them develop at another club in exactly a role we end up lacking.

A couple at a time, give these players two or three games in a row and then stamp their papers...or in some cases put a new paper in front of them to sign.

I'm sure SOS would be working closely with Barker at this time as both are primarily focused currently on developing our list. Giving each of our players a fair run in a controlled way would be a concern of both I would think.

When Baker got the job he said something like he'd be working with SOS to asses the list.

I took it to mean that they would have a plan to have a look at certain players on the list through seeing who gets games.

I would be surprised if we didn't see guys like Holman, Graham (happening now), Boek, KJ etc get some blocks of games and not with the vest on.
