VFL Round #6: Northern Blues vs Essendon

Pity McGuiness isn't a rookie, otherwise he'd seriously be looked at for a game at the higher level.

This is actually he 'retirement gig'. He came over to be an assistant coach as much as anything. That he is a wise head among a young group is a bonus.

ex Footscray player  who went to the SANFL and became a good player for Norwood......bit undersized for KP and relies on being a wiley old fox on the field.
Plenty of courage but lacks pace and would struggle at senior level, as Crash said has come here to retire and pursue a assistant type role coaching career....
There a couple of backman in the SANFL who could be looked at but I reckon the Boekhorst experiment might have subdued interest in the state leagues for senior spots and these type
of players would be rookied....

Did Laverde play today?  If so, did he rip Boekhurst a new one on the wing?

Laverde did play, but he doesn't appear to have been that good. Boekhorst got 17 possessions, but that is just so so.

Graham BOG. Sure to make the emergency list for next week. At least he's signed up until 2016 so we get so him get another chance under a fair coach.

[Professer E]

At least the best includes three blokes that have consistently been in the better players this year, that's a positive.

I'll take 17 possies for Boekhurst, he has to start to find his feet somewhere.

The saviour.

[PassIt2Carrots]

Doesn't need to be a saviour. Just needs to play 100+ games of good football.
