[stormskye]

Allan strong mark on 50 and goal. Can’t believe he’s a mid

 

[Markfs]

that was impressive..

 

[Hong Kong Pie]

Oh, looks like they are scoring well.

 

[VinnieB]

Ed Allen looks excellent!

 

[Fat Jesus]

My boy Edward

kelly has actually been ok. 5 marks and commentary say he's been impressive.

Steene looks very good and Johnson having a great game.

 

[35Daicos]

Allan, Ryan, Steene. There's some real promise there!

 

[SchuPie]

Harrison really needs to have a good season, otherwise he is in trouble.

I think he’s highly rated internally- as long as his hammies hold up I’d expect him to get another year
Not many bulls on lists w his pace

 

[Fat Jesus]

Allan strong mark on 50 and goal. Can’t believe he’s a mid

He will break into the best 22 soon enough. Strong tall and fast. Happy days heyyyy

 

[Bianconeri]

Our forward line squeeze is getting ridiculous. If he keeps this going for 4 quarters, he's got to be a shot at selection.

I think there’s a role for him in our forwardline as a leading CHF if which Mihocek and McStay play deep like they did against Geelong, probably is there’s no one really drop to facilitate that.

 

[SchuPie]

He will break into the best 22 soon enough. Strong tall and fast. Happy days heyyyy

Not only that, when the ball bounces high/crooked (or even if he fumbles) he has the height + agility to then tap it to advantage

AFL: Ed on the wing with some rotations forward / middle?

 

[35Daicos]

Dominant quarter!

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Watch out Will.... Ed is wanting your spot

 

[Markfs]

the problem with this level for johnson is that he can be selective about what he does, and he still stars... it's like a training run

AFL: Ed on the wing with some rotations forward / middle?

Yes on the wing I'm thinking. Eventually I see him as a Chris Judd type. Explosiveness through the center.

 

[Fat Jesus]

Watch out Will.... Ed is wanting your spot

Still may grow another CM or two.
Scary proposition.

So is anyone knocking the door down to get picked? Haven’t seen any of the match but see we are doing well.

Johnson, Edward just from what I've seen.
Steene impressive.
Kelly been good as has Wilson

How are Coburg rated in the VFL?

 

[35Daicos]

Allan has been great with hand and foot. Johnson kicks his fourth. 111-48.

 

[Markfs]

coburg is a rabble....you can see they're from essendon

 

[Fat Jesus]

How are Coburg rated in the VFL?

I have NFI mate. Hopefully someone else here knows.
I rarely follow the VFL although this year my interest is spiked as we have a few boys with serious talent.

 

[pablo disco bar]

Pies by 16 at HT, after coburg pinched a couple in red time.
Johnson still v good… 2 goals, 6 marks.
Finn with 15
Ed and Jakob with 11 each. Allan nice long kicks.
Richards impressive in contests and with ball in hand.
Steene with 17 hit outs… impressive for a 19 year old. 3 tackles also
Bianco a bit sloppy. Kelly needs to dominate, isn’t.
Wilson with 3 clever goals. If only he was quicker…

I like Tom Wilson and hope he gets a chance in seniors at some point
