Johnson, Poulter, McInnes and Harrison all looked good in the highlights.

I’ve just watched the 3.38 minute vid on Sandy v Maggie’s and yes Ash Johnson looks a polished performer

Ash and Reef will slot straight in, not sure when but probably sooner rather than later. Two class acts.

Good to see we’ve got some big lads with solid bodies in the VFL. Gonna need them when we come up against the Cats, West Coast etc.

Watching the VFL today and one of the commentators said Ash broke both his arms going for a hanger, playing for Scotch Old Collegians, in the 2018 GF.

I looked into it. Apparently he landed heavily after flying for a mark and he broke forearm bones in both arms and dislocated an elbow.

:shock:

Ok I'm on the Ash Johnson bandwagon, 4 goals this week & what a naturally gifted player & athlete.

Highlights on the AFL website.

Surely won't be long until we see Ash ply his craft on the big stage.

Yes, there is a lot of upside. I'd encourage watching the whole of the VFL game, though - in the highlights, they all look like Phil Carman or Peter Daicos because nobody shows the bits where they make Jason Wild look like a superstar.
