Letās not go to extremes here. Hartley & McNeice are not AFL standard. Neither is Zerk but at least he has scope to make it. Francis & Ridley will play more AFL footy next year but if weāre playing Hartley or McNeice, weāre going nowhere IMO.
Zerk is the player people were saying Francis was.
Lots of footy smarts and will make it, but not yet.
Loved Hockingās selfless game.
There was a guy, Queenie or something, didnāt do much right but put in a shepherd after he hand balled which I loved.
I think we did a dozen no-look handballs, I reckon eight of which were instant turnovers and four were a ball-up.
Iāve seen worse backlines in the AFL. If we had to go into a game with those five players next year it would hardly be the worst thing that could happen
