Had 26 disposals and 7 tackles, I still think he is 1 more game away from senior footy, might make his season debut in September.

not unless half the side is injured.
with a solid pre-season he can look forward to cementing a spot next year. Great to see he had 7 tackles, that's one thing that's missing frnm wellinghams game.

Keeffe might be getting tired after his first full-time season.

Speed and mobility definitely isn't a concern with him. I've seen him play defense before and he has done quite well.

He might just have had an off day.

Best thing is that, with that win, we've secured a finals spot.

yeah i was reading that thing on the pies website..

they said he played forward for a few minutes and looked lively and more at home..

I realise the goal was after the siren but gee thats good for his confidence!!! I really hope he can finally string some games together and become the player we all know he can be

The main thing for Rusling at the moment is for him to get game time & come through uninjured. Where he plays is secondary to this.

I hadn't realised, so that's even better than I thought. It's definitely an advantage having the twos going around during September, especially given our rotations.

I've put a full report of today's VFL game on the VFL board, but basically I have a new favourite young magpie, and he wears 22.

"Rusty" was once again brilliant today, apart from running himself so hard early that he needed a rest in the 3rd quarter.

Kicked the 1st goal from outside 50 on the run, that bought a chill up the spine, thinking "how good is this kid going to be".

Rusling marked with 2 seconds left at the end of the game, and goaled truly, hopefully they play him up forward for the rest of the VFL season.

Rocca had 6-7 shots at goal, kicked 2, but couldn't jump, and got beat twice in contests because of this. I'm not a fan of him returning.

Was a good day, apart from a lacklustre 3rd term.
