VFL VFL Season 2024

[Maggie5]

Watching every game he played with us. He was constantly doing stuff he just didn’t have the skill to do. Thus why he got cut in the first place. Not convinced he’s a good role model to have in the VFL maybe other teams but not us, we’ve come a long way since him and let’s not upset the club.

He too has come a long way if that is how you saw him. Great role model for young kids in his fitness program.

He seems to have also been valued by players and club as captain of Carlton's VFL side.

Was wanting to come back to the club last year but no spaces.

People change, many times for the better.

The commute must have been too much to do it for a 2nd year in a row. But this is a big loss, he's been a great captain and player for us for a long time.

I think he's grown up a bit since he left. Lets wait and see.

I’m not so sure. Loves a bit of attention does Benny, and is close with De Goey and Maynard. Am sure they’d all love to hang together, but too much of a distraction in a professional environment imo

I havent seen him in any of these training videos, so I wonder if thats even happening

Good to see we'll still have this Tom Wilson!:

I presume this is a young Quaynor?:

There's another lad in the group (standing close to him) who looks a bit similar, but you don't get to see him clearly.

The one for the 2024 draft? Unsure. Maybe doing some sessions along with the chargers? The other Quaynor is playing for castlemaine.

steered them to the Woods.

Hutchinson’s high marking prompts the nickname “Jumping Jack’’ and in the past two years he has emerged as one of the Gippsland league’s best players.

The forward kicked 34 goals from 14 matches this year, including four in a final against eventual premier Leongatha.

Last year he booted 38 goals.

Wonthaggi football manager and assistant coach Stuart Gilmour said Hutchinson was starting to take his football seriously.

“He’s a, ‘I’d rather go surfing,’ sort of bloke,’’ Gilmour said.

“But Jarryd and ‘Trigger’ (assistant coach and former Collingwood rookie Tristan Francis) have persisted in saying, ‘Go and have a look’. They’ve chipped away at him and he’s gone down (to Collingwood) and he’s buying into it. He’s brought into the next level.

“His athleticism, his run and jump, his vertical leap … he would have ticked all the boxes at the testing if he’d gone through that (Coates Talent League) system. He marks the footy really well. He does everything well. It’s just that no one has noticed him, because he never worried about Gippy Power. He got invited but he was happy to stay home with his mates.’’


Sparkes is among the leading on-ballers in the Gippsland league and is set for his second stint in the VFL: he played seven matches for Casey Demons in 2021.

At under 18 level he was highly regarded at Gippsland Power in 2019.

“He’s matured up physically in the past two years with us,’’ Gilmour said.

“He’s a workhorse, he’s elite by foot, his gut-running is incredible. Superstar.’’

Sparkes gained selection in this year’s Gippsland league team of the year.

Gilmour said Hutchinson and Sparkes were travelling from South Gippsland twice a week to train with the Magpies but after Christmas would relocate to Melbourne.

“They’re going to move down and have a real crack at it,’’ he said.

Collingwood VFL has also signed delisted Hawthorn midfielder Ned Long.

But the Pies have lost 100-game stalwart Lachie Tardrew, who will play country football for Sandhurst next year.

There are also doubts over Campbell Hustwaite, even as he trains with the AFL squad for a listing via the pre-season supplemental selection period (SSP).

Anyone get what they mean at the end re Hustwaite?

It's suggesting he might not sign for Collingwood VFL.

That would be sad. He's a lifelong pies fan, our captain..to lose another captain with experience would be a blow.

Just sounds like he hasn't committed to a club yet if he doesn't get a SSP spot.
