VFL Round 13: Northern Blues vs. Richmond on TV

[crashlander]

I thought Foster showed a bit today.  He has a way to go but I think that he could develop into a reasonable player.

yes. he found it difficult up forward but was pretty good in defence.

Byrne: Won’t be long before he is back in the seniors. He was a bit rusty, but he shows what a lot of our guys do not: desire.
Jaksch: Probably his best VFL game, with a brilliant 1st quarter and total dominance over his opponent. He went forward and gave a target with 1 goal 1 behind when we were being pounded.
Rowe: Spent a lot of time in the ruck and did it pretty well.
Viojo Rainbow: Did more than he has been, but he fell out of the game when we needed him. He isn’t hard enough at the ball.
Dick: Solid. Probably will get some senior games soon, but I am not expecting miracles from him.
Jones: A very big mistake. I would have loved to have picked up Caleb Daniel instead.
Boekhorst: Not impressive today. Did very little.
Watson: Looked dangerous, but didn’t do enough.
Foster: Promising, especially in defence when Rowe went into the ruck.
Johnson: Drifted out of the game after a promising start.
Whiley: tried hard but lacks pace and poise.
Walsh: Not his best game, but he is showing enough to be positive about him. He gets into the packs and gives a good contest.
Smith: Showed me a lot more today than he has recently. He is still far too light and can’t hold a tackle, but he put in hard, took some risks and generally kept his man out of the game while getting more of it himself.
