When I watch our reserves I see all 4 of Payne, Dev, Sharp and Wilmot being regulars in our senior team one day.

Agree on Payne, Dev and Wilmot. Would like to see more from Sharp at this stage though, he's a lot further along than expected at this stage but I don't think he's been having a huge impact in the reserves games I've seen, looks like he's still figuring out how to use his running ability to his advantage.

Just adding that I think it's taken Blake Coleman time to get up to the fitness level required even for AFL and there's still some hope he could get better quickly when he does.

Re Tommy if you're going after the hard ball and taking a couple of blokes on all the time it's often difficult to have clean disposal when you get it. He's fine most of the time.

I'm happy if either he or Dev get a shot.

I think you’ll find Blake’s pre season was also disrupted by injury, Covid and appendicitis.

Team at the bottom of article. Imagine every draft dork in the country will be watching, so that should swell the viewership by 15 or 20.

25 tops.

Seriously, I expect very few draft watchers will be watching. Most will be going to watch the Vic private schools this weekend.

McFadyen listed in the backs and I think he played some game time there last week. An example of what I mentioned last week about the result for the reserves not as important as player development. IF McStay signs with another club, ressie coach should give Payne a run in the forwards. He played a few match sims there in the preseason and was picked as a forward for his brief appearance in last years semi, so maybe there is something to work with.

Also with the 1's playing West Coast next week, would like to see the coaches back in Prior or Dev over Mitch in what appears to be a potential 100 point win.

Last chance saloon for McFadyen

Last chance saloon for McFadyen

Yes it appears so, not a good sign when Lohmann debut in front of him.

APS games are on a Saturday though?

Fair on form alone Lohmann had better VFL games.
Yes was hoping like many here McFadyen come along. Although knees never help players

His skills have been deplorable so far this year. Some absolutely shocking kicks.
Interesting move putting him to the backline, balls could be coming back in a hurry.

Game Day!

Will Ashcrofts Debut as a Lion

Hopefully, he goes well and shows why he's a top prospect in this year's draft
it's one thing to play against kids but let's see how he does against men of AFL standards.

 

[Lazza16]

I hope Squizzy plays well in their loss.

So any way of streaming VFL on a TV yet or is via AFL.com + the app the only ways?

I think Kayo has the games right? But it’s definitely on the AFL App

Not on Kayo unfortunately

Why do they not put it on YouTube? Its so dum only being able to watch your shitty phone tthe size of an Uno card.

It's ridiculous. In this day and age to not at least have a way of watching on a smart TV is a joke. And no, using a HDMI cable is not a valid way of watching on a TV.

 

[Mr Ripper]

You can watch on your PC.

I regularly watch on my smart tv. Most of them have a web browser which you can use to navigate to afl.com.au and watch the game that way.

So excited about Ashcroft I feel queasy in the belly.

Could be the hot lamb saag from last nights Indian takeaway…
