VFL Rd 11: Northern Blues vs Box Hill Hawks

Already bad news: Phillips is out for the rest of the season. :( That means the Little Blues will be a huge disadvantage in the ruck. Gorringe MAY be right, but he will probably miss another week, and he is not the ruckman Phillips is.
If we start off with Korchek and Bolger again, we are going to find it very hard to defeat Box Hill, who have lost only once.

Hopefully there will be a few guys coming back, but with the seniors losing Ed Curnow and probably Lamb, there may not be much cavalry arriving.
Live Long and Prosper!

23P: 33. A. Federico

A lot of guys need to really stand up after last week's debacle. Smedts is probably a little stiff to be dropped, even though he was not what we needed last week. Pickett needs work and Boekhorst just isn't up to senior standard, but they will hopefully make an impression. We need them to, which is why I don't think it will happen.
Tim Jones coming in is a real positive. Most of the others who are named on the bench have been delivering in the Development League.

I can't believe hawthorn dropped Sicily and Ricky Henderson. They were among their better players when I saw them last.

Weren't Whitecross, Sicily, and Schoenmakers all the rage not long ago? Everyone wanted to poach these guys.
Playing in the  2's maybe they wouldn't mind moving on?
2024... Moir of the same to come

Peter Jackson VFL 2017
Northern Blues   1.1  3.7  4.11  6.19 (55)
Box Hill Hawks   3.4  4.7  8.10  11.11 (77)

19 - 6 and we win easily. 12 - 13 and we still win. Many opportunities, which bodes well. Not taking them, well, that is something we have to work on.

DISPOSALS: Boekhorst 36, O'Shea 28, Wilson 25, Russell 22, Smedts 22, Strachan 21, Macreadie 20, Palmer 20.

There are actually some good signs in this. Boekhorst responded to be his bad game last week, as did a number of others.
Goals: McKay, Kerr, Gallucci, Pickett, Buckley and Palmer.

Apparently Harry had a lot of shots, but only put away one of them.

Boekhorst can look classy and seems to be cream in the VFL, but he just can't seem to take that step up to AFL level. I have never been convinced that he would make it in the big time - but then I thought that about Liam Jones! Boeky's time is running out this year though I fear.
Reality always wins in the end.

If O'Shea nominates for the PSD or Rookie Draft do we offer him a spot?

He is still only 25!

Someone will surely pick him up. Reckon he adds more value than a couple of our rookies.
