Next saturday at Visy park. I'll keep an eye out for him. This will be my first look at WA so there are a lot of players I'm keen on getting a look at.

 

[Snoop Dog]

not at all surprised to see Bruce have a big game - he had been threatening for some time.

What is the draft status of Josh Bruce? He's been playing (well) for GWS in the TAC Cup comp. Is he already 'held' by GWS or is he eligible to be drafted by other clubs? Curious to know as he's been impressive this year.

 

[Snoop Dog]

i think you will find he is a scholar holder with GWS and they have first rights on him. I think he has to be selected by them this year or is a free agent so to speak.

Dont think there is any doubt he will be picked up based on what am hearing as his performances are just getting better and better. I hope he has a good game at ES as people will really enjoy watching him - massive talent.

 

[jonesy86]

Are there any other kids not playing for NSW/ACT this year as they are playing for their AFL affiliated VFL team like Tom Young at Collingwood?

That is a Touch Up and see another Rioli there

Please tell me it's Maurice's boy and he's a gun. Edit: nope, Dean's brother. Maurice does have a boy coming through I believe, but not yet.

 

[in the Square]

Does anyone know how Dylan Conway played???

 

[ravarma]

to be honest i didnt see him touch it

 

[Sezzac1]

Does anyone know how Dylan Conway played???

On and off the bench. Some possessions in the 2nd half. Alot of good handball and 1 nice kick to a leading forward that turned into a goal. If you know him tell him to get a personal trainer. He has some good skills but not the fitness to use them properly over 4 solid quarters.

If he gets drafted, pre-season will kill him very quickly with his current fitness level.

All went as expected today in the way of results. Shame the rain came down, it was pretty nippy.

Some good footy, but pretty scrappy.

 

[Johnson#26]

A few brief comments from today's fixtures. Something really notable in terms of the best play of the day, IMO, was an effort from NSW/ACT's Steven Jolffe (CHB), who went charging back with the flight late in the 3rd quarter against WA. Got crunched by the WA player (Darling?), and sent shivers through everyone who saw it. Unbelieveable courage. Got up and kept playing, and was used as an example by coach Rohan Smith to the rest of the side. Outstanding effort.

I know it's an obvious one, but Jack Darling, wow! Looked a lot like Franklin from behind in the #23, looks a combination of Carey and Franklin. Miles to go yet, but he was great to watch. Kicked one great goal in the 3rd quarter dancing in traffic, and in another passage of play stole the ball from an opponent and ran off with it. Will be a crowd pleaser.

Bennell, Butcher, Elisseou and Conca all played quite well, too.

 

[WALL-e]

Jolffe's courage was terric J26.

It was Darling who crunched him.

I'd like to see Darling work on that attitude though. Swagger is good, but he did a couple of things that would have been to the detriment of the team.

 

[Toadvine]

Wilson was very good also. His decision making, vision and kicking skills are terrific.

Black and Fasolo were good aswell

Bruce was great all game for NSW/ACT. Such a strong contested mark.

 

[JDC!]

Please tell me it's Maurice's boy and he's a gun. Edit: nope, Dean's brother. Maurice does have a boy coming through I believe, but not yet.

Yeah it is Dean's brother Shannon. He is playing for Thunder as an overage player. Also I don't think Maurirce has a son coming through.

 

[WALL-e]

Very impressed with Wilson

 

[Toadvine]

Yeah it is Dean's brother Shannon. He is playing for Thunder as an overage player. Also I don't think Maurirce has a son coming through.

Apparently Maurice has a kid who's 14 or something. I'm not sure though.

 

[Stats Man]

Where were all you guys sitting today?? I was up in the Pratt Stand up the back but went to the one above the Storm Admin area (near the scoreboard and timekeepers box) for the last bit. Saw Neale Danaher around too.

Was great to meat you there mate and have a Good Chat about the Kids and Draft

Pick of the day was Broadie SMith from SA; a 188 mid out of WWT. Tall, clearance machine.

 

[youngsaint]

I wrote down a whole bunch on notes from today and yesterday but left them in melb and now in the country. Will post them when i'm back.

Fairly scrappy footy all day today and yesterday when the rain came, guys with that elite skill really came through.
