NORTH BALLARAT v CASEY SCORPIONS

[Demon_Tingles 211]

To casey players mostly. He was an enormous presence in this game and as I said actually gets involved in the play and runs hard.

Hogan 4 goals and BOG?

hell yes

[dee-luded 2,958]

Is it wrong to get excited about a player a year in advance?

Can't think of anything more exciting happening at this club to be honest.

Also good to see Strauss and Gawn in the best. Bring them in.

No Pedestals........

I cannot wait for r1 next year when Hogan lines up. Im shattered he isnt available this season as he would be great right now.

I want gawn in.

Did you see the stats for Jamar today?

38 hit outs (to who I would like to know) he had zero input. Gawn must come in.

[Demon_Tingles 211]

Gawn should play after todays game he was immense.

[waynewussell 4,236]

I totally agree that Jamar's worth around the ground is zilch. I also agree that he is ripe to be replaced as soon as the other guys are fit & ready. However, I am a very analytical eye when it comes to the centre bounce/ball up. Jamar was excellent today in the centre re-starts. He was much more effective than last week in giving our midfield first touch. He mixed it up more (which was a major criticism from Bombers game) and he cleared a path. So those critical of his ability to time the jump, thwart opposition and get the tap aren't watching closely. But we all agree there is more to being a gun ruckman than that in the modern game. That is why so many applaud Cox.

Maybe you didn't notice who he was rucking against. Were you at the game.

[Deemotivated 550]

Cox has the tank and smarts of a midfielder. He works bloody hard and is a smart footballer. Jamar is none of these things.

How did Watts go.................

3 sausage rolls and 1 assist of an old lady up the stairs in the mcc.

No Barry amongst the best in the AFL Development League? Some posters were wanting him to play AFL this year!

seemed to kick a goal in the seniors, no?

Not ready for afl but we need to have faith. Has pace and skill but clearly not ready

I think its great for Hogan that he can spend the year in the VFL. He will benefit more than getting the best AFL defenders and playing in a losing side.

Maybe if you checked I actually spoke about Barry in the seniors

Yes I noticed that he kicked a goal. I was going by the named teams; when he was listed as a starter in the Development League; I didn't notice that he had been upgraded before the match.

Shame that Watts did not play yesterday and that the MFC held back all three emergencies (Watss, Rodan and Spencer), at the "G" instead of allowing one or two of them to travel to Ballarat for some match practice!

Sorry if this has been mentioned in this thread already. But last night on the TV they were talking bout watts not playing any football this week, Apparently he had to hang around the MCG because one of our forwards was under a cloud (mitch).

Yep Because our last 8 Round 1 games have been f***** brilliant. We carry so much momentum from the pre season into the regular season. I love round 1.

Not

Kent was in the best players - maybe time for a punt on the kid.

Yer it was - on the post above yours

It is annoying for us supporters but Neeld has given his reason. It was VFL or AFL emergency. He said it was a tough decision and he said he put the team first. He also said one of the talls was in doubt to play.
