    Saw Micky o and Roosy speaking at training today, sounds like Micky got through the session well and will line up, they suggested that Spriggs will be the unlucky one to miss

        promising to know that we have a little depth in the midfield and can cover for a few injuries

          Spriggs is stiff. Much better than Bevan last week.

            I agree.
            I knew him as a gentle young man, I cannot say for sure the reasons for his decline
            We watched him fade before our very eyes, and years before his time

                Maybe Beven has "cemented" a spot in the side, regardless of the occassional bad game? I agree that it'd be rough for Spriggs to miss out.

                  MOL could easilly wake up with a twinge and pull out Sunday...

                  Spriggs probably showed enough to make sure he gets a decent chance in the seniors this year. I am pleased to say I thought he did enough last week. Hope to see him and Fozzie in the 22 by season's end.

                    I'd rather see Bevan and McVeigh firmly established in the 22 by season's end because they have more scope for improvement. McVeigh, in particular, is the one we need to turn into a top class midfielder. The very early signs in the pre-season were very very good so it's a tad disappointing that he hasn't gone on with it yet this year.

                      That is a bit unfair if you consider how bloated the midfield/half forward line is already and that there are a few "undroppable" players there as well.

                      We are shooting ourselves in the foot by not giving some of the younger guys more time. At least Dempster, The Hyphen, Bevan and Bucky are still playing. That is pretty good.

                        I thought McVeigh showed good signs in the 2 games so far this season. A tad dissapointing that he hasn't been allowed to go on with it

                          I suppose those two sentences contradict each other.

                          As you say, we still have quite a number of young guys in the side. There's just not enough free spots for all of them. But at least we've got the competition for spots that means there are others knocking on the door ready to go.

                            So who would you drop to allow McVeigh into the side?

                              Bevan had a horror night, but can still kick a footy. Spriggs was deliberately trying to not kick the thing, and was making stupid handpasses to other players under pressure. Very dodgy, i tell you.
