Just thinking of a few guys here, some who have had a good go at AFL level previously sitting in the SANFL like Griggy and Lyons. Gues that will be part of the midfield rotation joining VB, Mackay, Crouch, Danger, Thompson and Sloaney

So, of Mitch Grigg, Jarred Lyons, Cam Ellis-Yolmen, Matt Crouch and Sam Kerridge, who looks most likely to make the best 22 this year, next year and in the Premiership team of 2016?

My thoughts are yes Matt will join his brother, Ellis-Yolmen has untapped potential, Griggy can be a star one day, Kerridge a solid unit with moderate ability and Lyons well, maybe it's his defencive (AKA Jaensch) that has kept him out? ???  He does ooze ability but I sadly sense he may seek greener pastures

Tbags top 5 in the next three years

Grigg (But needs to work harder right now)
Lyons
Crouch
Ellis-Yolmen (wait for this kid ;D )
Kerridge (Nothing against him though)

I think Sammy Kerridge is better than he's showed to date, I'm just hoping he eventually does show it.

Also a Matt Crouch fan, kid can play and I reckon he's better than his brother.

Heard on MMM Adelaide this arvo that his leg is healing slower than hoped/expected.

Well sheesh, non of them really stepping it up atm, Kerridge doing well chasing the champs around, Grigg stuck in the Ressies, Lyons looks good especially up forward there is something there but sheesh, the penny needs to drop for these five blokes

Pity Curly Cam was the sub, didn't get the proper opportunity that debutants need imo, they should never be sub. Hoping Lul Charlie gets the sub this week as he may need it now, let Cam play ;D 

Got to let this kid Lyons get involved more somehow, just racks em up 30+ every week in the SANFL, just needs to break open a game now which he can

Now the good news ....

BRAD CROUCH, the one we know is a class above, will be back in about a week to help Paddy, Sloaney and Douchy 8)

did Brad play reserves on the weekend? is not on the injury list anymore

Toga

He played on the weekend and had 31 disposals kb, but Sando is saying probably one more week in the 2's before a senior return
