Ralphsmith could consider him self a bit lucky to play as much as he did today for the A side. Looked a little overawed to me.
Not all that heavily involved & went to ground too often. Good experience for him but he's still raw & behind a few others based on today's showing.

Graham, Ross, Martyn, Dow, RCD - good bunch of young mids to extend our dynasty to 2033.

Agree, wasn't a great display by him and missed a relatively easy goal also

I thought Graham and Ross were average. Didn't show much in a midfield that got pants'd today. Shedda was our best followed by Martyn.

Dusty and Cotch were quiet also but likely cruising around in 3rd gear. Whosever our stoppage coach has a lot of work to do on the center clearances

I wouldn't worry about Graham at all. Slow starter, but you know he shows up when the whips are cracking. Ross was good today imo.
 
Thought Baker and Aarts were great
Flossy, Martyn & Cantstandya also. Macca and Cads on the wings were solid. Short got a lot of it but disposal was a little off today.

On the other hand Chol had zero impact again and Lynch whilst at least giving us a contest didn't show much either.
 
I missed it but not getting too worried sound's like we were in it and could've or should've won it.

They've got an extra month of preseason on us so not a bad result to be fair.

Very heartened by the reviews on Martyn in the 1's and Mojo in the 2's.

Martyn will play a few this year.

We had 5 - 6 odd premiership players out how many were they missing ??

Apparently a kid named Cam Olden

I didn't see it but imagine if he got picked on the back of that performance

If he puts a good game together against the skunks seconds then forget Egg and Gooch and sign him up.

Melbourne chased up Russell Robertson off his mark videos off the Footy Show didnt they.

They'll probably take this kid next week then.
 
Wise old Tiger once told me to be wary of good form in pre-season and ignore underperformance from proven players. Wait to after round 5 or 6 of the season proper to start judging

As Aaron Heppell returns to Leongatha, another Parrot sets out for the VFL. Onballer Cam Olden has made the Richmond VFL list and Gatha coach Paul Carbis reckons he’ll make a player. Featured in the 2019 GF team in his first year out of the Under 18
