More like 80. To them.

Tiges will cop a rodgering as they play Geelong back into form.

I Can hear the cats rubbing their hands together already......and who can blame them.

Really want to see Corey Ellis play

[Phil Mrakov]

Corey Ellis doesn't have the conditioning required to play at AFL level yet. Remember he had surgery

[Willy]

If he can get 23 touches and a bunch of clearances in VFL then he is ready.
Sub him off if he gets tired.

[Go Richo 12]

If he can get 23 touches and a bunch of clearances in VFL then he is ready.
Sub him off if he gets tired.

Or when he gets injured.

[🏅Dooks]

We are in big big trouble

[Willy]

If he can get 23 touches and a bunch of clearances in VFL then he is ready.
Sub him off if he gets tired.

Or when he gets injured.

Is injury not a risk in the VFL?

He's played three full VFL games now. He's right.

Any game of football has its risks but I would imagine that AFL presents a greater risk to a kid playing his first full season of open age football.

Perhaps, but if he's OK to play a full game of wet-weather VFL football, playing as an inside mid, then he can play AFL I reckon.

This same game got 28k last year when we had the same amount of wins and Geelong were doing good. We will be lucky to get 30k.
