Rewarding form is not always as straight forward as it may seem.

On the back of strong performances in the VFL, many Bomber fans would expect the likes of Pat Voss and Nick Bryan to find their way into the Bombers' senior side.

For GM of Football Josh Mahoney, it is not that simple - with a longterm approach still the preferred method.

"I think people get really impatient with these young guys sometimes," Mahoney said.

"It can be expected that if they play a couple of good VFL games they have to be called up to the AFL.

"We're trying to set these guys up for long AFL careers, we don't want them playing AFL if they aren't ready for it."

Voss has become a fan favourite, kicking 12 goals from five games, gaining consistent support from fans for the young forward to make his debut.

Fourth-year ruckman Bryan will be looking to add to his six AFL games having returned from injury in strong form, producing 76 hit-outs and 34 disposals from two games.

Mahoney says that consistency will be key to allowing both players to come in and hit the ground running.

"Nick Bryan and Pat Voss are playing good footy, but it's still about making sure they are ready for AFL footy," Mahoney said.

"Even if that takes a little bit longer, we think it will benefit them more in the long run."

The excitement and potential is definitely there for the two young players, with Mahoney admitting that the problem of selection is definitely a good one to have.

"We can definitely understand why people get excited, especially when guys like Voss are kicking multiple goals each week," Mahoney said.

"It is a good problem to have."
