McKay progressing nicely, but not ready. Cunningham almost ready for a recall. No one saying 'pick me' based on their disposal efficiency. Jones seems more involved in the ruck.  Silvagni is there if required. Denis won't see another firsts game.

CFC and NB kicking skills inside 50 is awful!

Buckley and Boekhorst are doing well but using it not too well, especially Buckley.

Half time..NB's just in front...

Smedts..more composed than anyone else and easily our best IMO. great pass under pressure on his left to Cunningham for a goal.
Mckay best forward on ground with three goals and looks AFL ready...
Boekhorst...been terrible...
Armfield...nope...hardly seen
Jones..competing well in the ruck and doing his bit around the ground..
Graham, some good stuff but still look short of AFL level, too many errors along with the good things he does...
Buckley....see Graham...
Silvagni...been steady down back and one of our best..
Kerridge...won some footy but not impressive..
Jaksch...some good stuff in the 2nd quarter but always looks like he could go harder..
JGM...some good but his foot skills are poor....
Gallucci...nope, back at Willy next season...
Kerr..impressive at times could have finished his work better but is promising...
Cunningham...getting close to a senior game, has pace but needs polish on his finishing...

Actually Boekhorst has played pretty well, just not using it as well as he should.

Jones seems suited running around on the ball. suppose he'll always give you something around the ground as he'll always compete.

THe way we deliver into the forward line, McKay would be smashed. Looks good one out on the lead, but not in the ball park when it gets crowded and strength is needed.  Intro him later in the year, but only as a cameo. Give him another preseason to build strength and confidence.   I'd give Jones one more go as a forward / ruck man.

Sorry Jim..cant agree on Boekhorst....

Kerr looking impressive and I reckon Harry might be playing vs the Swans...

Good to hear that Kerr is doing well.  He looked OK at times against Richmond in the practice match but just got a little lost at times.

It looks like SOS may have nailed the last draft.

Jasksch has been ok without being great, Kerr is having decent game, has good vision and smarts, shows some real promise, and McKay is playing his way into the seniors although no sure that's a good thing given our forward line delivery.

No problem with Boekhorst's game but his disposal.

If you want to get excited...Kerr and Mckay....the former has been very good today....Graham improved after half time and Jims mate Blaine has also done better ;)

Seen the future today with McKay, Kerr plus Cunningham has played pretty well too.

We may have nailed our last two drafts nicely.

Goal to Blaine..lol.
