It's a fact. He has always been rested previously, rather than played with Bendigo.

So Round 1, 2010 - Jake Melksham was being "rested"? In fact, rested until Round 3....

Bizarre.

Edit: Hang on, I think I have the answer. The VFL didn't start their season until R3 of the AFL season....

No Mark Williams this week??

A must win for the side... if we can't beat Werribee then we can say goodbye to finals for this year.

Williams is gone for the season, under the knife.

Lets hope this rubs off on the boys for tonight!! Seems like a very close and high scoring contest! Lock in Ben Duscher for a spot on the EFC list in 2011... this boy is a gun!!!

Tell us a bit more about him MM...

I have only seen him play live the once but he has been in the most goals and best players every week since he has been in the side.

He is a good running midfielder/half forward player.. tackles and chases hard and has a very nice mark for his size as well. Works his butt off in the contests as well. Looks like Grant played him predominantly as a smaller forward today.

Delahunty Can play as well.

Looks like they bought in some fresh faces this week.

Ben Duscher - 22 years of age (DOB: 29/09/87)

Hails from Merbein (doesn't someone else connected to EFC come from there?) - up against Matthew Bate and Robbie Tarrent (reasonable crop from Sunraysia that year)

Played for Bendigio Pioneers in the TAC in 2006 (with J Selwood) and Bendigo 2nds in 2007.

2007 stats Duscher was
H: 186cms
W: 79kgs

Left to play at Rochester in 2008 and 2009. and was selected for the Goulburn Valley League Team of the Year.

Returned to Bendigo this year.

Would be worth a late draft pick

Cheers - sti

Was very impressive last week too was Duscher. Really hard at it, and from what I could tell, uses the ball quite well too. Could be worth a late rounder or a rookie selection.

Did Myers play?
