[Ricochet]

#AskTheCoach allows AFL Coaches to take over the @AFL twitter account and answer questions from the public


Here are some of the fantasy relevant answers

[In reply to: How's @Jessewhite_ fitting in Bucks?]
AFL ‏@AFL  1m
.@BruceMundell @Jessewhite_ has been excellent. Feel he took a huge step last year and we are looking for him to go again #askthecoach


[In reply to: has the introduction of the interchange cap changed the way you've prepared at all this preseason #askthecoach]
AFL ‏@AFL  9s
.@48dyl Not really. The demands of the game have though. If you can't cover the ground you can't play #askthecoach

Reid playing as FWD with Cloke (by the looks of things) - could be an interesting smokie, his better scores where when he was playing as a forward
and encouraging words said about MWilliams - and the open spot (of which he is one) will probably be taken by him, with Clint Young out on the wing (similar role to Hanley for Lions methinks)


NAB will probably tell us more, but it looks like he's the leading candidate
