Thanks for all the report everyone  :cheers

I still can't understand why Contin is in the VFL ressies. As FF says he's no lightweight like a few others running around in the ressies. He was bright light in the midfield and across HB in our practice match loss to Collingwood and surely after 29 possies yesterday he belongs in the VFL seniors. I would easily have in the Coburg seniors ahead of our proven duds who have shown time and time again they aren't AFL standard.

Good to hear Dea was in our bests especially when matched up against a veteran AFL career player like Corey Jones.

Glad Foley got through the half-game. Maybe get him to run out close to a full game with the Coburg ressies next week and if he pulls up fine then up to the Coburg seniors. Hopefully we'll get to see him 100% and running around in Y&B by the second half of the season.

Did Astbury get through the game okay (ie. no injury)? I think someone on BF said they thought he went off with an injury.

And another question for those that went - who IYO would gain promotion to the Richmond side this week?

I didn't see Astbury in the last qtr (not that I can remember anyway) so I don't know how he pulled up

Promotions IMHO: Polak only because I think he will straighten us up with a big body at FF. I think Webberley is a chance but running out of puff goes against him. I thought Dea was good overall and very good in patches - could be an outside chance. Thomo was a show until getting injured.

People were saying Astbury came off with an injury last week too as he was sitting on the boundary with an ice pack on. He still ended up playing the next week. Looks like he stepped up to the seniors and played a little more gametime this week and did the same. Are we sure this isn't precautionary or he actually did get injured?

He was limping when he went off through the interchange gate.

Yep. See the first half vid where Corey Jones tackles and slings Nahas into the gutter/fence.

I think they got their halves mixed up.

LOL at someone in the crowd giving to Jake King when he ran too far and then gave away 50.

They mightn't be the best players going around, but I love Hislop and King sticking up for their teammates all the time.
