It isn't only our senior listed players, the VFL is second only to the AFL in the country and anyone playing at that level should have the basics covered.
I'm told that there were half a dozen or so who have been playing VFL seconds but that still leaves 16 or 17 players who should do better.
I thought that Kerr's kicking in general play was OK but three points from three set shots isn't good enough.
Nevertheless the senior experience seems to have done him good, he presents well, butters up and generally looks as though he wants to be involved.
Agree on Kerr, his kicking was poor but he has one thing none of our young kids have and thats physical presence, he gets into the opposition, likes a push and shove
and creates a bit of worry when he attacks the footy. I really want him back in the seniors working with Mckay and Charlie...thats the future and they all offer something different.
If you are a forward in the NB's you dont get much help as the forward entries are woeful and hitting targets is rare.....
Wilson is a goer, pity he doesnt have that extra yard or a bit more size......Byrne looked better than most but has that odd brain fade down back.....Oshea tries but got flogged by Rodda and Mullet is next to useless.
Ben Cavarra from Willy has a few more tricks than Wilson and I'd think about him as a rookie....quicker and has that happy knack of kicking goals with that nice left foot he has.
