Which Polkinghorne is that?

Hopefully Gus and Cass will put in another good game at Coburg and make their AFL debut before the season is out.

Just checked the fixtures page on the VFL site and it's him listed - James Polkinghorne. Maybe we're trying to have a very close look at him. Play him against men rather than U18 boys and see how he stands up. He's an inside mid/ballwinner which is what we need.

WTF, can he do that.

Coburg has promoted promising James Polkinghorne, 18, from its TAC Cup affiliate club Calder Cannons and named him at half-back for the Scorpions clash.

The 3-tier affiliation is working already. Too bad it doesn't stop other AFL clubs from snaring Coburg players.

Yes they can  - it appears it's been a rule there for quite sometme. They've just never used it before

so theoretically if Kreuzer, Cotchin, Vezpremi and and etc played for Calder they could be gaining VFL experience atm

Presumably although there may be a limit (?) to the number allowed to be promoted. It would be a massive loss to a TAC Cup side to lose all their best players to the VFL midseason.

Back pocket Mitchell Farmer and Ashley Arrowsmith who played in the U18 Champs also play for Calder. Darcy Daniher does as well but he'll be a Dons' F/S.

[bluey_21]

farmer is one i like.

Fast, solid skills, works hard
