VFL 2017 Rd 1: Northern Blues vs. Port Melbourne

[ElwoodBlues1]

Am I hearing that both Polson and Williamson can kick both sides?

I saw Polson use both feet in the last NB's game unlike Nick Graham who went backwards at times so he could use his right boot but if he had a left he
could have hit up a target further ahead and moved the ball quicker...

I wouldn't call them dead men walking yet: they DO have some chance of resurrecting their careers with us. However, they would be in the terminal ward. As for their chances, I would prefer to bet on tattslotto.
Graham is a great VFL player, but that yard of pace and the extra body strength makes a huge difference at senior level.
Jaksch may get a game if we have a few injuries. But he needs more fire in his game.
Jones: maybe if we had the AFL's top midfield Jones would look OK. But we don't.

i think Graham could make it if given a regular run....likes a goal too.

To suggest he isn't strong enough is silly, ditto his speed (he certainly is quicker than Mitchell for example).

i think it's his mind - he always overthinking it when he gets a senor gig - probably too worried/focused on getting dropped....

It's not thinking quickly enough rather than overthinking.  Taking that bit of extra time to avoid using his left foot doesn't help either.
