    i thought jmac was a bit of a negative, so many cheap free kicks, resulting in goals, turnovers in the back 50 and not enough defensive pressure

    Positive: NO INJURIES

    Bingo...

    And gOLLy... Jones was listed as our best player in all reports I have seen. He's hard at it and I suspect he lived up to that this weekend.

    Spencer as a positive??? He must have had 2 of the best touches ever seen!

    Oh and careful what you say about Steffi Martin, mate!! He's my hopeful SuperCoach pickup of the year!! :)

    Positives: Jetta, Maric, Tapscott's right foot, Howe's hanger and Petterd.

    Negatives: No one in the forward line too often, Bate, Watts not going hard enough, lack of quality second ruck options (Martin is ahead of Spencer), inability to tackle and too much hand passing to stationary players.

    They were very soft free kicks. Ump should have just kicked for them. Had real mongrel and had a dip against his old side. His hit on Black (i think) was a ripper.

    While Spence was on the ground didn't see him lose one ruck contest. His effort backing back into the pack front on was a real sight to behold. Pure guts for a praccy match.

    Yes tackleing was a negative and too flat footedness <-----new word ?

    It was a great Sunny day to catchup with freinds, and have a good discussion on footy, & some fun...

    It didn't rain, and we got through pretty well without losing any Key personnel. Frawley will be back soon enough, and we look pretty healthy.

    Some of our boys that have had limited preseasons, got a run around. Good to see Gysberts on the park. Good to see Tappy showing some goood stuff.

    And how good is it to see both, Nifty Nev Jetta, and Maric Magic, in career best form.

    Rememeber this time last year: Jurrah out for 16 weeks?

    Count our blessings - we had a seconds team in. Those not in didn't need to show anything to the coach IMO

    Positives:

    Not much can be gained from Saturday, if much at all.

    The Hawks game will be a pointer towards having further concerns.

    Just cannot judge from Saturday.

    Geelong lost to Port by nearly 15 goals....what does that mean? Probably the same as the tripe at Royal Pde that was dished up, nothing much.

    We play Lions in Round 3 - only 6 weeks away and if the same eventuates, PANIC!

    Had literally half a side in so I won't be taking anything from this game.

    You can't be serious?? He was 30 seconds late to a training session and you have trashed his career?? Good grief.

    He was rubbish, he butchered it almost every time he got it in his hands

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.
