    It's been a long time since I've been to Windy Hill. Twenty years at least.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

                  No Tom Boyd. 2 weeks ago he said he should be available to play that week. Same with Suckling

                    It'll be weeks before Boyd will be ready for senior action. Wouldn't be surprised if we don't see him at AFL level until after the bye. Suckling I can see slotting straight back in but based on our injury projections so far, who knows when this will be.

                    Good to see Hrovat back.

                    The side is dominated by VFL listed players so not a heap to get excited about, but Webb's continued midfield development and Lynch's progress are 2 areas that are worth the trip.
                    Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

                      Gee whiz me either I'll be going.
                      But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                          There is clearly no effort in placing players in position for the VFL side.

                          They may just as well list a squad alphabetically.

                              He was pretty strong on the point that he was close to a VFL return but that still hasn't happened. My guess is he will need 3 weeks at Footscray to be considered ready for a return to the seniors. I'm wondering why he still isn't right to be selected for Footscray and if there has been another set back.
