Disappointed my two favourites - Jackal and Waylen - are gone.
They have 10x the likelihood of being picked up than the Irish fella.

Your Brisbane could do with an Afl fit Waylen wandering around the forward line.

Yeah waylen is the one that looked like he had real promise.

They haven't really shown much if the Irish lad playing. Obv he sucks skill wise but they haven't said what his skill is. Guessing he must be pretty athletic but he doesn't really look like it

I didn't think it would last this long after seeing the first couple of episodes.

Who do you think will win it?

Have you actually watched it?

I like the show tbh. Something different.

The best parts of the show are when Darren burgess is on.

People left
Semmel
Padraig
Rhys
Bradie
Johan
Chris Moreland.

Getting to the stage where they all could win it.

Padraig and bradie still have no skills but they are obviously very athletic. Same with Rhys who is lightning quick and coachable.

Semmel looks too slow and unfit to make it at afl level, sort of bloke that would dominate a country league.

Johan and morelo both are proper footballers and are the most well equipped to play right this second.

My top for a winner is Johan, from a top 3 of Johan, bradie, Chris

I've been watching it, its not too bad for reality TV, better then big brother. My favourite was Waylan, I hope that he can get some fitness into him and some self confidence as he has lots of natural talent.

My pick for the winner would have to be Johan as well. I think Morelo has the determination but not sure if he will get it.

Yeah must admit I dont mind the show but id be doubtful if any of them would ever get a game. They all look pretty average, Wagner looks the most likely and he struggled to get a kick at SANFL reserves

He had about 20 possies in his first League game, went away for this then hurt his knee and played one or two games of Ressies. Harsh call

Apparently one of The Recreuits was seen sitting at the Bombers' table at the AFLPA awards last night.
