Reserves Rookie Review – Round 13

Written by Alza on June 12 2024

Going to stick with this style for the Reserves Review as rookies are less relied upon from here out with teams nearing completion over the byes. A majority of the relevant rookies have made their debuts already. Most of the players in the VFL currently are probably only going to get a handful of games.

Happy for any feedback and can include any extra players of interest.

LEGEND – Name, AF Score (Ave/Games)

SANFL

ADELAIDE

Curtin 43 (71/7) – will play again this season, needs a better role for scoring

PORT ADELAIDE

Bye

VFL

BRISBANE

Tunstill 59 (104/8) – on the fringe but having a great year in the VFL

Prior 118 (100/8) – dominating but is a back-up option for now

Smith 108 (89/7) – pushing for a debut, kicked 3 goals but is unluckily behind a few

CARLTON

Wilson 74 (70/9) – playing well but hard to fit into their backline

Binns 55 (103/9)– quiet game by his standards, fringe player for now

COLLINGWOOD

Allan 72 (69/9) – had 20 touches but will struggle to get into the side now

ESSENDON

El-Hawli 121 (100/10)– had an excellent game but was injured and now out for 6-8 weeks

Caddy 78 (56/8) – kicked 3 goals and will probably play again this year

GOLD COAST

Rogers 79 (78/4)– decent game with 22 touches and 6 clearances

Tsitas 151 (105/9) – too good in the VFL with 41 touches this week, strong midfield to get into though

GEELONG

Clohesy 102 (106/10)– another great game with 10 tackles and 21 touches

GWS

Rowston 65 (93/9) – one of the next mids in line and is having a good year

Stone 68 (77/7) – playing well this year averaging over 2 goals a game

HAWTHORN

Watson 108 (109/2)– kicked another 4 goals and has to be in contention

Hustwaite 95 (84/6) – 22 touches and 10 clearances in a decent game

MELBOURNE

Moniz-Wakefield 71 (92/10)– playing well and might get a crack

Tholstrup 116 (85/8) – great game with 29 touches and 9 clearances, big chance to come in after the bye

NORTH MELBOURNE

Lazzaro 123 (112/3) – excellent game with 36 touches and 7 clearances

Hardeman 97 (68/7) – played well with 23 touches and 10 marks

RICHMOND

Blight 65 (76/2) – another decent game with 18 touches and 6 marks

Smith 106 (78/9) – great game on return from his debut as the sub with 22 touches and 7 marks

ST. KILDA

Garcia 97 (108/5)– kicked 3 goals from 15 touches and 7 tackles, good chance to come in after being traded out by 20% of coaches

SYDNEY

Mitchell 85 (92/7) – having a good year and is on the fringe of selection

Cleary 53 (87/9) – seems to be one of the next in line in defence

WESTERN BULLDOGS

Busslinger 107 (82/9) – another great game with 27 touches and 10 marks, chance to come in this week

WAFL

FREMANTLE

Bye

WEST COAST

Hall 76 (67/8) – another solid game with 24 touches and 8 clearances. Unless he shows a fair bit, he probably only plays a few games this year

Trew 98 (102/6) – good enough and in form but can’t get a decent crack in the AFL
