It was a bit of crystal balling last night watching 2 20 yo and a 21 yo with about 50 games between them, be our 3 key targets up forward. The TAC system gives nothing to young forwards in terms of preparing them for the AFL, they have to learn it on the spot, either VFL or AFL. Young forwards at other clubs can be introduced to the big time with a few older heads around them. That’s where we are missing Levi at the moment.
Last night was the first time they have every played senior football together. Compare them to Kennedy, Darling, LeCras or Walker, Jenkins and Lynch etc.
It takes time and it takes patience, but the signs are there. (Who remembers Josh Kennedy’s 22 games with us.....11 goals, dropped marks, at times looked like a real spud!!)
The potential (dirty word) is there !
