VFL Rd 7: Northern Blues vs Coburg

[Thryleon]

Nah, he doesnt have the size yet for the position he will play.

That doesnt mean he can't play senior footy sooner in a different position.

You see the way he moves, the way he uses the ball, and the way he actually gets involved in contests that he isnt that far off the mark at VFL level.  His consistency is a bigger issue than his size.  Some players just never get big, but are the tough nuggetty wiry types.

What is the urgency with Sivagni!?!?  We recruited a set of top up players to buy us time and keep us competitive while our Classes of 2016/17/18 all mature and prepare for senior football. We're not challenging in 2016, we're developing.

No rush.  Part of his developement will be to get a taste for footy at the top level.


Look guys, I get the idea that people see things as guys rushing the inclusion of players, but it isnt anything to do with that.

Its solely to do with who we are playing, vs who is available, vs who is putting their hand up for senior footy, vs what roles are available.

The idea that players are on your senior list on slow heat is a furphy.  They are senior footballers who are currently not playing senior football for a variety of reasons one of which is who else is keeping them out of the side.

If SOSOS is putting his hand up (and thats not to say he is or isnt) then he will play regardless of being a bit undersized as he will simply play a different role.

Jack could quite easily play "small forward" as it currently stands if we need him to.
