Basically Wilson and Kelly have swapped positions. This is how they are training recently. Arlo has been swapped into the backline, its where he played his best league footy (he'll eventually go into the midfield)

McMahon is 198cm and Kelly is 194cm, Ruscoe is 193cm. Thats prob enough height.
Who from our VFL players listed as emergency may provide additional height when/ if needed?

Sam Glover is 194m. On the emergency list, but there will be two players to come out of this team (sub + carry over) so he'll prob come in.

A very young side.

Apart from a few. Its like an U23 side.

Jetta gonna be important for leadership for that backline, given the rest of them are U22

I'd feel better with Hartley out there.

nah, if there is one position Arlo hates. Its the forward line.

Really? Why's that? I thought that is what he was recruited for. Mid/Fwd. In defence is he being played as a running defender or interceptor?

Just checking the previous VFL games on the AFL site and they don't put the full replay up, just a 5-mintute highlights package. So if the club dont put it on their site later you'd better watch these vfl matches live to see the whole thing, unless they're on 7 like this one.

I've been checking as well to see what they were doing with that!:

Looks like this has just come up!! I'm very happy to see that.

More of a midfielder. But played half back for South Adelaide I believe. He played a bit forward.. but can't recall if that was league or if that was U18.

He looked lost up forward this pre-season. Last week he mentioned to me he was playing back now, and I said he did look kinda lost up forward.. and he was like "yeah, hated it."

But with his composure with ball in hand, he'd be suited to half back that can run through the midfield, or vice versa.
 
Keen to have another look at Arlo. Watched him really closely in the practice game last week and could maybe understand why he slid a bit further in the draft than expected. Looks like a pretty chilled out personality and at first glance a pretty passive sort of player. Match that with seemingly average speed and athleticism you could get the impression he might lack the intensity to make it at the highest level. He then really calmly waltzed through a few contests with ease and it was pretty obvious why he was drafted. Interesting one to watch.

Interesting. He’s one I’m really keen to see as I have a suspicion he might be one that comes on quickly and jumps a few in the line.
