Coburg Tigers v Casey Scorpions 2/5/09

[pringle 42]

For those thinking of staying home to watch, I urge you to reconsider. Coburg always have a very sizeable contingent of loyal fans at home games. I know it's not like a big afl crowd, but when our boys get on a run it can be difficult to stop with the fans behind them. Add the cousins contingent to the equation and you will find a very intimidating atmosphere come tomorrow arvo. Anyone who can make the trip down to support the boys would be doing them a great service. You can always tape the game and watch it again later. As added incentive, they have great BBQ hot dogs and really good ham and salad rolls plus decent coffee if the weather is cold. And how could you miss the messiah's first outing? Plus it's always nice to get the suburban footy feel (which Coburg city oval has in spades) and also get up close to the players and listen to the coaches at the breaks.

newtons playing pretty good.

Why couldnt he kick like this last week.

Watts has been good when near it.

our best so far id say valenti

[gOLLy 401]

Newtons first half would make him a definite next week. Ran hard took marks and kick goals. Watts looks great when his had his hands on it aswell. Dees players look good.

[demon_king 13]

Whelan looks like he's ready to play for Melbourne again, been very impressed with his game.

[dazzledavey36 49,294]

one person who i have been very impressed is jordie mckenzie! tough and good skills!

[Jaded No More 59,060]

The poor kicking skills of the VFL listed players are killing me. Not that I should care, but I want Watts to get more opportunities!

His first goal in particular was class. That he firstly took a mark against 6 players, and that he then had the quick reaction time to play on (although it was clearly a mark) and kick across the body, was just great. He can truly play both tall and small, which is pretty rare for a forward.

Whelan is also way WAY too good to play at this level (his damn body is a curse), and it's great to see Bail and Grimes getting into the game.

McNamara, having never seen him before, is quite impressive. Has great speed. Mind you, we've got so many tall defenders at the moment, it would be better if he was played as a forward.

Newton has found his level. That is his comfort zone, and he cannot apply himself to a higher level of skills/speed.

Plenty of good VFL players never made the transition. He seems to be one of those.

Agree with most of that watts really hasnt had a decent kick inside 50 to him.

Although i havnt seen much of grimesy hasnt done to mcuh.

I hope he comes ino it this next half.
