    Re: Footscray FC VFL 2024

    Just saw that there is no VFL the same weekend as gather round. Did the South Australian teams raise a stink about their reserves not being able to play?

      Probably, seems a strange move.

        I?m starting to become a bit worried too.

          For our much valued VFL watches last week, all things being equal would you swap Darcy for Lobb this week?

            No I wouldn't but it's probably a bit closer than a couple of weeks back. Darcy is a slow mover when he's on the ball and I think that could be exploited by seasoned ruck man. Now if for some reason Naughton was moved back I think we could play him.

              That's a concession.

                  I'll start thinking maybe we arent crazy if Gary jumps on the bandwagon.

                      Darcy kicked 5 last week, but , he is not seasoned enough to take the second ruck role

                        Darcy kicked 3 but could’ve had 5. He missed a couple he should’ve kicked. He also spent a lot of time in the ruck. It was a dominant performance. I would play him ahead of Lobb.

                          Why does Darcy have to be seasoned? He?s the better option right now, clearly Lobb will still play a role throughout the year and Darcy will need managing - but start with your best team and he is absolutely better than Lobb. Frankly, Lobb should be Darcy?s back up at this point

                            Amazing, one of the commentators on Sunday said he kicked 6 . Is it that hard to check ?

                              AFL.com article today says he kicked 5. I heard he kicked 83 goals and jumped over the Whitten Stand, you heard it here first.

                                These reporters should be reporting on politics, no fact checks just make it up.
