Honestly, the amount of AFL listed players means we should be going far in the VFL this year.
Yeah. We can play Burgess in the ruck and still dominate.

Anderson, Blakely, Atkins, Sexton etc., plus Jeffrey, Davies, Hollands, Sharp. Way too much experienced and young talent there for a lot of teams to match.

Our VFL pick ups have all been excellent.

We're currently second on the live VFL ladder so that would suggest we're in for another big season with the ressies like last year. Although if injuries hit at the AFL level then things can fall away pretty quickly. I suspect we'll see Walter, Rogers and Read play some VFL footy for us later this year so perhaps they could help cover any future injuries.
 
Hollands showing his quality with 12 disposals already and a goal. Davies has been good too with 14 disposals but also has two behinds to his name.

Hard to pick who should be promoted. Will depend on the firsts team and what happens in the second half.

But Ainsworth, Rosas, Long, Fiorini and Andrew have all got people who could take their spot, and maybe do a better job.

I think Hollands, Sexton or Jeffery may be the most likely to get back into the squad after a week out. Sexton can really lead and create space so well. Jeffrey is a great kick and very creative, but just needs to iron out his flashy dumb choices at times. Hollands is a good mid/forward and we could use him soon.

Atkins is also quite good, and has been all season. Pretty a nice kick. I dunno if we’ll ever see him in the firsts team after what he’s dished up previously, but he could easily play an attacking winger role.
 
Yes, he’s missed a few easy snaps which is odd.

But he’s having shots and taking marks and actually being a threat.
Isn't that one of our biggest problems at the senior level, though? All the good work we do around the ground isn't being capitalised on when we line up for goal.
