Good to see Liam Jones recognised, and I agree about Silvagni being 2nd.

I probably would have had Graham and Cunningham ahead of Kerridge, but it's close enough not to argue about. Boekhorst might have deserved a vote as well.

Totally agree. You can't fault Liam's attitude. I thought Smedts deserved a mention, did some very good work and was hard at it when things were tough.

Smedts was one our best IMO, only stuffed up once and that left foot pass under pressure to the goal square was a ripper.....preferred his game to Kerridge, and Boekhorst shouldnt play senior footy again...
Liked Cuningham's game...tackled well and look more interested in winning the footy at the coalface....big improvement from last time I watched him and I reckon that kid is learning
and getting the message that to playat senior level you need to win your own footy,  plus chase and tackle your man,...one way footballers wont be playing senior footy under Bolton...
Dylan Buckley might make a good rookie next season....trying hard but his decision making isnt great and for a small defender which seems to be his last chance to make it you need players who dont panic in traffic and that aint Dylan.

I agree completely. His tank and work rate seem like things to not be worried about. Very good work rate IMO. KJ and others could take note of that. I like that Jones' work rate is big, huge actually, and young Pat Kerr seems to have a healthy appetite for hard work and work rate also.

i just hope that some of these guys - Jones, Smedts, Palmer, Graham, Boekhurst and Kerridge - get promoted to the 1s if their consistent form warrants it and they are not overlooked merely because of the 'youth' policy.

Seems to me that Jones and Smedts, in particular, should play this week. Cuningham too, for Fisher or Polson.

Jones did impress and deserves senior consideration but who would make way for him?

perhaps Weitering if he's 'sore' or beaten up or whatever?

I guess that's one of the few options. Of course Kreuz may not pull up?

[LP]

If they are going to bring Jones in they need to do it off the back of a good performance.

To me Jones is like Casboult, a headspace player, if he has just one good game at AFL level he could go one to become anything.

We talking about Tom Jones?
