Of the VFL players on our list:
16. Jean-Luc Velissaris: First time I’ve seen that lad and actually knew who he was. I was impressed with his pace and his willingness to take the game on. I liked what I saw. Not so sure about the defensive side of his game, but he attacked very nicely.
3. Jesse Palmer: Another very solid effort as a mid-sized forward. His goal kicking was nice and his defensive pressure was a pleasure.
29. Josh Hill: I’ve never really been a fan of Hill. He is not a pressure player. He proved it again yesterday, but he played easily his best game in our colours so far. He is a part of many scoring opportunities. I’d like to see him work harder, but that has always been his problem.
9. Sam Fisher: His best game for us by some margin. He had 11 tackles and rally put in. His goal was lovely. His put a lot of pressure on and was one of our better mids on the day. I am hoping this is a sign of things to come.
12. Brendan Myers: Hurt his shoulder, but he was very solid and hard working in the middle. This was the best effort I’ve seen from him.
27. Angus Milhan: Promising in the ruck, but he ended with 1 possession. He didn’t aim his taps very well and he had some problems with the physicality of Lewis Pierce, but he was probably our most effective ruckman on the day. He really does have some promise, as he does go to the right spots and he does fly for marks.
24. Fraser Pearce: Not a great game, but solid enough. He did some nice things.
25. Kane Keppel: Played in defence as a key defender and had a very good game. He doesn’t tend to make the mistakes that JGM does and he could be an option for a close defender at year’s end. I really like the way he plays.
7. Mason Blakey: Very consistent player who is also an ‘almost’ type. He has promise.
22. Chris McCabe: A solid performance that improved as the day went on. May lack that express pace, but he was in the play and making tackles.
57. Ethan Penrith: Not many opportunities to show his flair yesterday, but he does look to be promising. He really does have pace and dash.
1. Tom Wilson: Love the way he gets to the bottom of packs. His has his limitations, but he is a cut figure and deserves to be.
