Will be ok as will Wright. Can't say the same for Ross who looks like a plodding country footballer

Haven't seen much of him so don't know what he can do. Does he have good range on kicks, a couple fell short of target in the first, don't know if he miskicked or not. Great goal though

Looks like a keeper. Strong unit. Good hands and a nice left boot.

Looks a decent support player that could play a variety of roles.

His best game today...lowered his eyes to find a target today...unlike everyone else who blazed it to their sweeper all day

Seb goes out, another child comes in.

Rinse and repeat for the next 18 months at least.

Time for Ledger to get a go. Yes, his disposal isn't A grade, yes he may not have 4 quarter fitness base possibly...how can it be worse than Ross who looks out of puff in the first quarter and just kicks the ball straight in the air every time he gets it??

Murdoch is good because he's got a big solid body, usually a penetrating left foot, hits the tackler hard like he means it & doesn't f*** around when he gets it. How many lessons even our experienced players could learn with that kind of attitude.

Once he's done a couple more pre-seasons - it will be very good.

Agreed MURDOCH and WRIGHT were the gleaning lights from this afternoon debacle.

What is the go with Milera I have never seen a player run so hot and cold? Last week he has a go and puts his head over the ball, today he was like an intimidated little boy running around. Didn't show one modicum of interest - time for him to return to SANFL he cant turn that around !

Murdoch can play and Wrighty is going to be a super star. I think Saunders isn't any worse than Murdoch either. Three very good quality mids for the future. Seb has dropped off a little but he goes pretty well usually too.

Looked OK. Give him a few games in a row to get used to the pace of the game. We need to sort out who we are going to keep or let go for next year. Giving the young guys regular, consecutive games is the only way to find out - under pressure, who performs and who does not.

he had a serviceable game... not that i will judge him off tonight’s game.. bit of hail of fire. Think with more time a set posi will be able to see what he has. he's a big strong unit.

I agree. Ross needs a rest, but I think he could be a keeper too.
He is a bit like armo, the un and under (inside mid) that will take a little time. Just not big enough yet.

Bull has the size, just needs the tank. Could be our version of Kennedy from Sydney. Good skills too.
