The guy has been a standout in the 2nd half of the year for Bendigo and from all reports was a standout in the VFL/TAC All stars game.

Rookie him? Senior List? Don't Bother?
 
Yeah I hope we give him a go - at least put him on the rookie list.
Had a few BOG's for Bendigo and can kick goals....

spoke to him after the game he said a couple blokes (high up) asked him 101 questions about next year and that they would be in contact with him in the near future. adelaide w/c and hawthorn have shown interest so lets see what happens. would be very handy as he is hard at the footy can take a awsome grab play both ends of the ground and can kick goals so why wouldnt we pick him up?

No thanks toArrowsmith

Bullants making him look good, Duscher is a standout of his own accord.

How do you figure? I've watched plenty from Arrowsmith, through the EDFL, TAC comps, little at WAFL, but plenty at VFL level. He shines in a team, is a game breaker, has pace and poise to run through the midfield and the strength and size to push forward and snag a goal or two a game.

He was played horribly out of position in the WAFL in the games I saw, and has found him proper position again, where he played through juniors. Midfield rotating forward. The perfect goal kicking mid. Deserves a crack at a stable club.
 
Duscher would go well on the rookie list. It'll at least give the club a chance to see just how good he is.

And Why not take the punt on Arrowsmith? It's a rookie list pick, at worst, he becomes an improvement for Bendigo, at best, we get something out of him at senior level.

No risk in taking either of them

I am not denying that he has some talent, I just get the feeling that the guys around him are making him a little bit better than what he actually is..

From reports I have heard/read/seen, Arrowsmith played pretty much the exact same position at Northern as what he was in WA, as that rolling wingman/goal kicking half forward.

I don't doubt Arrowsmith at all, I was just making a statement that Duscher is a better prospect that Arrowsmith despite being a couple of years older.

2nd or 3rd round rookie pick would be great. Id love to see Benny put on a senior list in 2011 but i dont know if the Bombers will go there in a compromised draft this year....
