how many goals has Mckenzie kicked in the last month?

McKenzie is not playing consistent VFL footy, plays 10-15 minute cameos. Has very little tank to run out a VFL game.

Think it's fair to say he isn't ready and is a long way off AFl footy. Other blokes way ahead of him in the peaking order

He is long term prospect and unlikely to play AFL footy this year, I'd go as far as to say he won't be playing AFL footy this year

Barring a truckload of injuries to virtually all of our KPP's, I'd be surprised if we saw him before 2017.

take GWS lightly at your own risk, Gordon seems to be out via MRP. Morris not named in VFL report at all so bring in possibly lloyd, tho still hold McDonough is due a run or Lennon

Unless big tone gets invited into the fold again..........

Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

The first bit sounds like you are talking about Griff. And he is getting a game.

Jackstar is back!!!

So when you say a truckload do you mean two?
If Jack, heaven forbid, goes down and Vickery gets an injury, I'd say he would be a pretty good chance of getting a gig. He is big and strong and could hold his own deep in the forward line. Nothing to do with fitness and any crap like that.
Once again the simple things just seem to confuse you.

yeah i think dio is confused by the fact that mckenzie is struggling to get hold of the ball at VFL level, let alone kick goals

I want to see Lennon, Menadue or McDonough come in.

These kids need the exposure at this level as much as possible.

In McDonough and Lennon's case they aren't in their first year and we need to see whether they can

cut the mustard at this level or are just good VFL players.

Morris didn't play ... Hence not in VFL report
