This weekend: Essendon v Box Hill Hawks - Saturday, June 15, 2pm, Windy Hill
Former captain Jarryd Roughead was upstaged by two younger key forwards in Box Hill Hawks' 10-point loss to Essendon.
Making his fifth successive VFL appearance, the 32-year-old didn't enhance his chances of an AFL recall, managing just 10 touches and going goalless for the second game in a row.
He was largely a spectator while youthful key forwards Jackson Ross and Mitch Lewis did the bulk of the scoring.
The untried Ross bagged four of the Hawks' nine goals, taking his season tally to 23 from eight games, while Lewis showed some promising signs after being dropped, tallying 2.2 from five kicks and seven marks.
Marc Pittonet held sway in the ruck with 49 hitouts and 21 possessions, providing great service to runners Harry Morrison (26 touches) and Teia Miles (25), while David Mirra (23) was solid in the back half.

The composed left-footer, who injured his hip in round four against Collingwood, gathered a team-high 24 possessions, laid four tackles and slotted a goal in a performance that will have him in contention for a senior game.
Key forward Josh Schache moved well after being concussed at his last start, kicking 2.2 from 13 possessions and eight marks, while Will Hayes had 18 touches and scored a goal.
Promising midfielder Rhylee West wasn't as prolific but still kicked two goals from his 15 touches.
