    This image, simply entitled "apprendisti", is a standard bearer for the form.

    No surprises Libba, Baz and Garcia were first in.
    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

    Going to be fun watching Libba's apprentices for the foreseeable future.

    Garcia's enjoyable to watch, just needs to keep building on experience so that he makes more good decisions than bad ones. Some of his handballs can be costly, but I don't think it's a composure thing because a number of times he buys himself time and hits a target by foot under pressure.

    I wish Garcia was at game 50 or so - think he could be a bit of an energising wrecking ball once he gets experience. Strikes me as a player built for finals.

    Indeed, he has had a very good start to his career.

    Baz has certainly got his mojo back at the pointy end of the year. Good sign for September.

    Imagine us in 2 years. Bont and Macrae not even 29, Timmy at 25. Naughts and Baz bigger and stronger, Marra with 2 more preseasons, Garcia etc.

    Also fingers crossed VDM gets his body right as he and Garcia will make an amazing double act when swapping between midfield and forward.

    How did Schache go in the ruck vs Gawn? Is he better than say Bruce or Young in this role?
    The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

    I don't believe he really competed against Gawn. Think he pretty much only went in with the other Melbourne ruck

    I think he went up against on a couple of occasions but yes it was more against Jackson.
