I have been watching this bloke closely and noticed a significant improvement in his game the past 5-6 weeks culminating in his best game for the club tnight.  :clapping

No coincidence this has happened as he approached 50 games.
Very few players have any real impact on games until they get this number of games under their belt, but even allowing for that there were times i thought he should be showing more. Just how much he has shown in the past month is a pleasant surprise and the thought of how much he may improve over the next 50 games is a tantalising prospect
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

Yahweh? or the great Clawski?

Dermie said on SEN's "crunch time" program said earlier today that Vlaustin will captain Richmond one day. Will be our next captain

Have to say I agree

Natural leader this young man

Spot on.

Can't wait till this kid gets some more midfield time. Won or halved every contest last night!

He is more valuable in defense. Best move Hardwick has made in his coaching career is Vlastuin to the backline.

Played his football there as a junior and captained Vic Metro from that position.

Flossy is turning into a very solid midsized defender and rebounding half-back. Another good game from him tonight.

Ideally the vlastuin spot is where you introduce kids into the team

C ellis, lennon, menadue are getting shafted somewhat

Corey Ellis is injured

It is the only reason he isn't in the side now.

He has never been dropped for any other reason than from being injured but don't let that get in the way of whatever your point is supposed to be
