[Bunk_Moreland]

Picked for the twos

[MC Gusto]

God I hope he gets through unscathed

[Bunk_Moreland]

God I hope he gets through unscathed

Why? Scathed or un he wont play seniors this year

[BigMart]

Be nice for him to string a few games together for confidence

Whether he's going to play seniors or not, surely you would want him to come through unscathed.

[bigred]

Gonna get there early and have a look...

I doubt he will play the full four quarters.

40+ possessions in 3 quarters should be fine

[magnifisaint]

even 40 possessions in 2 and half quarters will be good

Be great to get an eyewitness report Red.

No. Coach has said this year is about bullet proofing. If he comes through unscathed and continues to strengthen then I dare say he will play seniors...form dependent of course

[saintsRrising]

So has he had 46 disposals yet?


Just joking. I just want to see him stay on the park get through back to back games at present.

Any good form is a bonus.

[MC Gusto]

Just saw update on bigfooty - had a few posisies in the 1st - not going bananas just easing into it

[magnifisaint]

tell us when he jogs off at the end of the game. Even 15 to 20 will be enough

[8856brother]

8 possies till half time. Getting more involved in the 3rd according to Bunk or JB on big footy.

[MC Gusto]

Played 3/4 qtrs - not a huge impact but some nice assists by all accounts. Importantly no injuries

[bigred]

Yeah nothing special to report. Got through three quarters and definitely had the foot off in the third. Got through OK.

Good win to the sandy dev side. Just owned the second half.

[Griggsy]

Good news that he got through, form is irrelevant really. All about those kilometers.

[Bunk_Moreland]

Sat out the last qtr on the bench. No strapping, no ice, no limp.

All good

Well given his history, some may view him just getting through the game as special.

[SaintPav]

WTF is Freeman doing sitting on the bench with all his hamstring issues?

Where the f*** are his Pilates trainer and yoga instructor?

It's amateur hour! This is BS. I want heads!!

[Bluthy]

Sat out the last qtr on the bench. No strapping, no ice, no limp.

All good

So way down in possessions from last game and benched in the last qtr. Already on a downward trajectory. Dud.

[bigcarl]

Good that he got through, I've got high hopes for this kid. I hope he's a gun partly for our midfield's sake and, secondly, to spite Collingwood,

I hope we are able to navigate the fine line between being over cautious with the kid and getting him to senior football. If his body holds up and his form is good enough I don't see why he shouldn't play seniors this season. If it's going to break it's going to break

Why does it matter he plays ones this year? Are we going for a flag? No. As long as he plays some footy where he can learn his craft onfield - whether devs for Sandy firsts - thats what matters. People just want to see their new speedy toy out there. But logic says why risk him in the high pace AFL arena yet. Let him do another full preseason where they can keep working on building all his leg muscles up they way they want and then he can have a crack at AFL. Thats the sensible course to me.
