I'm a little confused where this kid is at? Has he got a major injury, they just eager to build up his fitness base or are they holding him back in preference of others? I haven't heard a thing or seen a whisker of this kid all summer and he's one of the players I'm eager to see on the park the most. Can't wait to see how he attacks the ball and works his arse off in the F50 to generate goals for others. I think he is a real point of difference...if we ever see him on the park, that is...

He came to us with back problem there nursing him.

It’s a good question. He had the back injury last year, but returned in the latter half of the season. Not sure if that was a wise move, given his injury was a stress fracture.
From what I’ve read we are being extra cautious. 2 weeks ago he started to join in training, on a modified program.

I read on numerous sites that we’d been very bullish on him right back to 2023. From what I’ve seen he’s just a natural forward, with great goal sense, at ground level as well.

I'm pretty sure Serpell said they've had a good look at his back, and that in hindsight he wasn't ready to play last year when he came back.

Anyone who bleated about us not picking JVR cannot complain we got this guy.

We needed the KPF depth as Jack R was ageing. 2023 $1.5mill Lynch plays 4 games we left JVR on the table for Brown. JVR ~ ready to go and been kicking 1.4 goals a game., even back up ruck.Our best available FMD, skinny ass campaigners RCD DOW RYAN Banks and brown

JVR would've saved our 2023 season. Instead of Miller, Pickett etc up there.

Hail mary's at Lefau, Kosi, Fawcett, Gray. Now Faull, Armstrong. Ridiculous amount of choice.

Armstrong and Fawcett marked OK couldn't convert.


Faull.. forgot about him.
Wow

Wouldn't have thought, only been on the track for 2-3 weeks so probably just running and light ball work. You would think after back stress fracture, very slow rehab. No hurry we have a lot of options up forward and Lynch is still the main one, so really only room for one more.

Faull and Armstrong are not hail Mary’s. Fawcett maybe. Both Faull and Armstrong were higher ranked players than JVR in their draft. We didn’t pick JVR as he was shit in the champs, couldn’t kick over a jam tin and was playing CHB not forward at the time. Get over the fact we didn’t draft him, plus he hasn’t really improved. Faull is a good prospect and will make a good forward. He’s as tough as nails. Armstrong I’m not sure. Do we have to listen to you bleat about JVR for the next ten years? You’ve sprouted about him non stop. Give it a rest.

Tom Brown over JvR is giving Wayne Milera over Charlie Curnow.

We didn’t pick him and we’ve heard it all. Do you want me to go back and raise the fact we overlooked Buddy? It’s history move on. Every year a team would like the hindsight to have chosen a player who has ended better than their selection.
