Whoa theres some depth building at Punt rd :shh

Conca and batch are required in the senior side :(

Who is this Verrier kid? Have heard we don't have any mid prospects outside Arnot & Helbig. More than twice.

Verrier is a tall mid-fielder prospect. He doesn't mind the hard ball and once his body builds will be hard to move at stoppages.
-
Good to see Arnot back.

Looking foward this, let's hope someone stands up.

Great chance for Conca to really let them know that they made a poor decision in dropping him

Looking forward to this game......let's see who stands up...
Should play McGuane, should of played him yesterday IMO.....it's the Tuck syndrome again.....let's wait until round 21 to give him a go.....

McGuane for Miller :yep

do you think he is doing enough to warrant promotion?

do you think he is doing enough to warrant promotion?
Has done more in the seconds than a few in the firsts, been kicking goals and that usually wins games.

Shane Tuck has finished top 3 in the B&F multiple times. Luke McGuane was an average at best defender at the top level and he couldn't get a kick when we moved him forward in some games (2010). Tuck is a good player, McGuane is a....
Has Luke kicked more than 2 for Coburg? If he dominates today (and I am talking a bag of 8)) then perhaps he should come in. If not, stay at Coburg. It is closer to his level than AFL is.
Edit: Yes a bag of MadTugger cool sunnies smilies. Bloody hell. Bag of 8 8) ;D

I just sense twice young Luke is about to bust open a game in his natural position at CHF and kick a bag of 8 today.

I pine for his Broadbeach form.

Cats fan says the rain hitting hard now. Run and carry will win this game as kicking is too much of a gamble.
Cats had the game for about 15 minutes in the middle of the first quarter, other than that the Tigers have definately had this second quarter, they just haven't been able to score. Cats needed to strike hard with the wind this quarter while they had it.

Coburg did well to hold the Cats goal-less that quarter when Geelong had the breeze while kicking two themselves. The weather (rain and difficult strong cross wind) obviously making possession and scoring very difficult for both sides but the Burgers are judging the wind better when shooting for goal. A number of Geelong's behinds were rushed btw.

Cats pretty much played most of that quarter in their half and will come home with what breeze there is. Kicking goals still difficult at both ends. One goal today equivalent to three.
-
Coburg's tackling pressure has been good.
Cats fan - "It is tricky though to hold your feet when you have Tigers jumping on you. They have been very good at putting the Cats under pressure which has seen a lot of rushed kicks and handballs not hitting targets, or dropped marks skewwing the ball off in odd directions."
"Neither side has looked pretty today. This will go down to the wire it seems"

Geelong pretty much dominated and kept the ball in their forward half as 19 shots to 2 shows. Coburg even with the breeze just had their rebounding kicks intercepted by Cat half-backs. IIRC the Geelong guy said their CHB Brown had 13 possies and half-a-dozen marks in the 3rd qtr. Coburg was just feeding him the ball.
-
Verrier has been playing well of late.
-
Kel Moore. Old mate is back.
-
Verrier was the one who had two different highlights videos from his U18s time - one showed him looking like a future superstar with his run and carry and breaking the lines and hitting targets while the other showed him making poor turnovers doing the same thing. Hopefully he's learning to do more of the former now as he develops.
Mostly defenders in the Coburg bests which shows where the ball spent most of the day. Selling home games has seen in the end two heavy defeats for the Burgers. It never makes sense to me selling home ground advantage even if it means a quick short-term buck.
Kel Moore. Old mate is back.
Good to see for his sake :thumbsup.

how many games do people think kel needs before we consider him for senior selection?

At least one this year before he announces his retirement.

He's not going to retire, 65'.

Seen him at Coburg last week
My opinion he plays next week
Has enough smarts to survive !!!
-
who goes out jack?..Dea?
-
Moore goes back .Griffiths forward ?
-
i have been thinking this past week that griff has now had a handfull of games and maybe its time to just increase the load on his shoulders a little..CHF for the melb game would be a good move i think.
-
leave griff down back. people bemoan our lack of a monster backman, well heres a 2 meter tall bloke that is agile and not only kicks the ball a mile, but is also able to constantly hit up targets coming out of defence.
-
Al you do make a good case for leaving him down back,however i think the hole at CHF is just too big to ignore
-
while the hole at CHF may seem bigger than the hole at CHB, i feel that the other young tall options, in vickery, elton and astbury offer more up forward than down back.
a good CHB can really control a game. A bloke who can provide a marking option from the kick out and then be able to hit up a leading CHF is worth their weight in gold, and can make your forwards look good. CHB was often referred to as the pivot.

No Conca today. So he hasn't played a game for two weeks which isn't ideal.
McGuane, Graham, Batchelor, Arnot, Browne, A.Maric, Derickx, O'Hanlon, Darrou, Webberley, Moore, Verrier and Post were the RFC-listed players today for Coburg.

i have been thinking this past week that griff has now had a handfull of games and maybe its time to just increase the load on his shoulders a little..CHF for the melb game would be a good move i think.
If Griff goes to CHF would Derryckx be able to stand up on our backline somewhere in the seniors, CHB? We have these players are we ever going to use them??

I have been asking for Griff to be moved during games when we need a 'change-up' but I am happy to have him stay at CHB for most of the time to learn the craft. He does need to use that kick of his and his pace to become a 70m player. I'm hopeful he will over time.
-
Yeah I am pretty disappointed he hasn't come up after all the wraps last year before the ankle injury, He does deliver the ball well out of defence, is he mobile enough? does he play in the ruck at Coburg at all? It must be getting close to decision time for him and the club
-
Hey 05 Whitey has one of the best tanks at Richmond so that blows your theory out of the water.

Angus Graham and Luke McGuane were among the goal-scorers, Jayden Post (19 possessions) and Tom Derickx (14) battled hard and rookies Ben Darrou (19 disposals) and Steve Verrier showed impressive signs.

COBURG Football Club officials say hosting VFL football in Warrnambool allowed the club to increase awareness of its brand.
Club president Bill Balakis said the south-west trip was positive, despite the club losing money from the match. :huh ::)
About 800 people watched the VFL Tigers, who are aligned to AFL club Richmond, fade badly in the last term against Geelong in a contest marred by rain and a muddy surface.
Balakis conceded the day failed to meet club expectations and said the rain meant a large crowd was never going to eventuate. He said the Coburg board would review its decision to play two country matches this season.
The Warrnambool clash followed an early-season match at Shepparton.

Club development coach Greg Mellor's summary of how the Richmond-listed players performed at Coburg last Sunday....
Jeromey Webberley
Was lively early on, playing through the wing and midfield. Used the ball well in the very wet, muddy conditions. Faded out of the game, however, in the second half.
Addam Maric
Finished the match with 24 possessions. His ball handling was impressive in the conditions, but his execution was below standard. Has been working really hard on his defensive skills, so it was good to see him have five tackles.
Angus Graham
Produced another solid performance. Had 15 possessions and 31 hit-outs against a quality VFL/AFL ruckman. Also had three shots for goal, which was pleasing considering the fact he spent more time in the ruck.
Jayden Post
Spent time down back and up forward. Was better in defence. Picked up 19 possessions and provided strong offensive run. Played his role and worked hard all game.
Brett O’Hanlon
His first three quarters were very good. Showed impressive composure and used the ball well in the conditions. Has worked very hard on his ground-level game, and his ability to hit through the contest, so it was pleasing to see his improvement in this area. Disappointing, though, to see him fall away in the last quarter.
Kel Moore
Was Coburg’s best player, in my opinion. Made smart decisions and was very efficient with his ball use. His body positioning continued to improve as they game wore on. Has returned well from his long-term injury and is close to being ready to play at AFL level.
Andrew Browne
Took five marks in the tough conditions, which was pleasing to see. Was clean below his knees and rucked strongly, but his impact throughout the game was inconsistent. Undoubtedly, this was due to his reduced time in the ruck.
Luke McGuane
The conditions made it really tough for him to have an influence on the game in his role as a key forward. His defensive pressure, tackling and willingness to create a contest, however, were outstanding.
Tom Derickx
Alternated between key back and key forward and continued to show good signs. His aggression and intensity at the ball and opponent were excellent. Took a couple of really strong marks, too. We have been particularly pleased with the progress he has made.
Steve Verrier
Maintained his recent good form. Struggled to get into the game early, but finished strongly with 19 possessions, most of them contested. Has been excellent over the past month, playing of half-back and a wing.
Ben Darrou
Worked himself into the game after a relatively slow start. Covered off his opponent well and then offensively impacted on the contest as a key back, finishing with 20 possessions. His composed, effective kicking under pressure, in the conditions, was a highlight.
Matt Arnot
Returned after a stuff lay-off due to an ankle injury and had a quiet game in terms of possessions. Played through the midfield and also had stints at half-forward and on the wing in the second half. Was great to see him have eight tackles and his conditioning will continue to improve with more games under his belt.
Jake Batchelor
Was very strong defensively. Didn’t have a lot of opportunity to impact offensively, but he set up well in structures and controlled his opponent. It was especially pleasing seeing him take on greater leadership responsibilities through strong direction and communication.

Looks like there are your five ins for Sat.

Don't think Arnot will if he has only had 1 quiet game back from a 5 week injury layoff.

Heard earlier on SEN that Foley and McGuane were in the mix.
So we may just have to wait and see.
The only think we know is that there will be five changes.
Will make winning on Sat difficult regardless of who we bring in.
Stats suggest five or more changes means a loss but there are always exceptions to the rule.
