VFL Geelong VFL 2022

[Jhye Clark 13]

I will say our draft haul from last year is looking promising. There's still a bit of size needed but there's no complaints so far.

Stephens is looking the real deal. Love it!

Knevitt looking more ready than advertised (besides his frame).

Defence has been very leaky. SteVen's playing high, missed a couple of shots on goals. He is very vocal. Confident. Looks a player. All others in Defence are VFL listed I think.

Dempsey is a highlight real about 18 months away. His first mark on the chest from a Steven's swerving torp was class. Almost knocked him over. Good set shot , gets out of trouble. Just need the hanger. You can see him lining up....

Knevitt probably the best so far. Very good mark, took two in first quarter on in front of the pack and the second in the middle of the pack.Clean, nice kick. Good running goal.

Stephen's working his way in to it. Saving himself for big second half?

Cooper Whyte close but no choccies yet. Looks much more an inside mid than a flanker. Some still to do today.

I thought Abbott best ruck on ground so far.

Stephens disposals highest on ground - are they sideways handballs?

I've seen enough - Neale should be getting a game over Rat right now.

He may not be fully-developed in body, skills, or game sense but damn, he looks promising. Great body work to kick his third goal.

Reckon there's a good chance this is the case by end of year.

Where have they deployed Whyte? Seems he isn't in the middle based on his stat sheet and they have flagged trying to get him to develop a second position to shoehorn him into the seniors

Absolutely... but I'd prefer in the next week or two!

Not sure, haven't been watching for him closely. He got crunched about 10 minutes and came off, not sure if he's back on yet.

 

[PzBlinky]

I wasn't impressed by Dempsey last week... but damn, this guy's got some tricks. Great evasive skills, has almost taken some speccies, and has kicked 3 goals on top of that.

Dempsey is a gun

 

[Phipppppa]

Anyone make it to the game?

off minimal background. Once he gets some meat on the bones he could be very handy.

 

[The_Koulouriotis_Fan]

Dempsey is an absolute steal, has incredible skills and is a goer! Dare I say it, future star

and we still have not seen a few. If we get something long term from Conway we have done well.

He needs size but I think he should get a game at some stage this year considering our lack of talls

 

[David the Cat]

Cooper Stephens, Neale and Dempsey very impressive, as is Knevitt though the latter needs time in the gym.

Dempsey sure has some tricks.

 

[Farmer2Goggin]

Draft haul definitely delivering
Special mention to Dempsey - my first look at him and by heck he’s got the makings of a cult figure.
Seems a natural reader of the play and wow has he got some tricks
Stephens , Stevens and Neale should debut soon

 

[goyoucatters]

Dempsey is a gun

Only his third game. And you can already see that it won't be a lack of the necessary skill that will hold him back from having a career. That finish off a step and that leap in the ruck down back show more than enough of what this kid has got. Once he builds his body and his tank (and the speccies start sticking), look out!

IWWT.

 

[Turbocat]

11.11 to 13.2 ..... we have left a bit out there.

 

[calder_daddy]

Ollie Dempsey
Just wow

 

[PzBlinky]

Dempsey doing the ole' Ablett balk around the man on the mark, straighten, then kick a goal from 40 out on an angle...

 

[catswhiskers]

The Ollie show continues!

 

[Farmer2Goggin]

OMG - Dempsey with the shake and bake!!

Did I say Dempsey has some tricks?? Great goal.
