VFL Showreel, R15: Ash Johnson highlights

Enjoy Ash Johnson's standout VFL performance for Collingwood

I have a soft spot for AJ but you aren't getting the first 3 and last mark in the AFL. The defender looked lost at sea, nowhere near it.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

yeah there is only one forward option often though, so don't think we take both unless forced to

Seriously? Bring that Farrant guy back in..I'm sure there's some tall bloke they can bring in from somewhere..

Surely the AFL side takes precedence over the VFL side.

i was talking about afl
We have one spot available - checkers spot.

I don't think we'll bring in two forwards with under 30 games experience, when you already have Kreuger on 13 games

Oh okay, misunderstood. I thought you were saying we couldn't take the available forwards out of the VFL side leaving them with none.

I guess if they want to move Howe back into defence, they may want both Reef & Ash.

If they're concerned about experience, I guess that means Billy's straight into the seniors if he gets through training.

Its possible, though the fact they only managed one of the two during the game, on a 5 day break, I get the sense, it'll be only one. I could be wrong though

Billy & Reef it is then

Howe back into defence with Noble returning.

Howe back into defence with Noble returning.

Yeah, be interesting who goes out for noble.
Dean? Would have to be if Howe goes back into defence.
Or Markov? Chance he doesn't get up anyway

Probably Leggy. IQ still yet to be assessed as well, isn't he?

 

[Jen2310]

yeah
Both as an assess.

Final nail in the coffin.
What’s Bali like in late September?

 

[mookieb]

Cameron ended up in hospital after the game. Who plays ruck if he misses?

 

[Jen2310]

Going by geelong's forward line they have 2 talls plus smalls/mediums, so we wont need 4 tall defenders down there. So we prob drop dean, and play howe forward

 

[Jen2310]

Cameron ended up in hospital after the game. Who plays ruck if he misses?

He's fine, according to wade.

 

[Jafo]

Guessing Frampton/Kruguer/AJ (if he plays)

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Cameron ended up in hospital after the game. Who plays ruck if he misses?

They've cleared him. He's available to play.

 

[unplugged]

Surprised about Elliott, I thought he was pretty much running in the rehab program? Or has he been doing contact training and footy drills? To be fair I haven't really been up to date with training updates for a few weeks

 

[domus]

Yeah, I don't like the sound of that.

Surely a one-off situation is fine if the boys felt a little extra sun and surf would have them feeling fresh. They have trained together since last November.

Been in full training for 2-3 weeks tbh

 

[Jen2310]

If elliott gets the green light to play.

Maynard. Moore. IQ
Noble. Frampton. Sidebottom
Lippa. Pendlebury. JDaicos
Hill. Kreuger. Schultz
Elliott. Reef. Howe
Cameron. De Goey. NDaicos
Long. Crisp. WHE. Harrison.

Sub: Richards


I coudn't fit in Markov or Dean. Given Geelong's only 2 talls, I dont think we need 4 talls. And gotta bring in noble so someone has to drop out.
WHE can serve as the 7th defender, or even forward can swap him and howe if you like.
I've got a friend who wants IQ dropped completely, but I'm not sure they'll do it.

Can't move Sidey off half back after last week. IQ is not a winger, so placing Lippa there and getting him involved rather than stuck up forward.Elliott comes in so richards go to sub. And he is who he initially came in for.

 

[migz]

In: Elliot, Mcinnes, Sullivan, Noble
Out: Mihocek, Markov, Dean, Harrison

Need a change to the midfield. Sullivan along with Ned Long will give us some inside grunt which is what we really need at the moment.

 

[The Phantom]

Is there any advantage in staying mum about Elliot returning and then he just is announced on Thursday?
Or are oppo scouts well enough informed that they would know anyway?

 

[BuildEmUp]

Cameron ended up in hospital after the game. Who plays ruck if he misses?

nop e not hospital - whe went for scan and found he had bruised ribs , was trainng yesterday ..

Not sure about Sullivan as HH ain't gunna be dropped - but if he does then in Sullivan, JD looked proppy last 2-3 weeks - he is also borderline

 

[Harry O]

Would they bring him straight in, no vfl? Given he has been out for 10 weeks

Melksham Ashcroft etc returned straight to afl after 12 months out
