I resisted the urge to add “BFY, TW” to the title.

why close the VFL to fans…people could have made a day of it.

Keen to hear how all of the AFL listed players go, particularly the Daveys, Lual, Roberts & Visenti.

You’ll likely get a sanitised club report or such, but if it’s a closed session, you’re unlikely to get a critical, warts 'n all viewpoint.

Yeah good point. Was hoping somebody might have access still? But you are probably on the money.

Roberts & Draper watch if any one gets in?

I’m actually excited to see what Roberts brings. Love the fact he is a left footer and seems to have some footy smarts. I Can’t wait to see him request a trade at years end because Kelly is playing the wing instead of him.

Looking after Princess Kate?

@CJohns @All-Star_Bomber_18 or someone else that has been to training this year

Do you think we will actually go with McKay, Reid, Ridley, and Laverde in the backline round 1?

Just seems too tall to me

Can they ban us from going to the main game as well?

McGrath, McKay, Rids
Redman, Reid, Martin

Is the locked and loaded back 6. There needs to be a 7th for rotation, so it’s Cox vs Lav vs Hep as the next in line.

Hind has been playing both ends so he can always go there if the need for speed is required.

Kelly has been training on the wing.

Gut feel says they will develop Laverde on both ends early in the year to be a bench swing man

I would personally have Hind as the 7th defender over Lav, Cox etc. Need pace off halfback
