Why is running around to try to get on his left all the time then?

He just laid a brilliant run down tackle.

D Rod with a goal, 63-41 now.

Fitzpatrick has a real presence as a forward.

That's a good question, as a junior he was so good on both sides that no one was sure what his natural kicking foot was.

I don't know but he's a natural right footer.

Fair stretch to say he's great both sides of the body though Steaming. Not from what I've seen.

Hartlett has never been as timid as Toumpas. It was injuries that held him back, not intensity.

In saying that some great defensive work from Toumpas just now on the half back flank, resulting in a forward movement that saw a goal kicked by Bonaddio.

How do you know that, have watched all Hartletts games since his drafting?

The reports are great guys keep up the good work. Ive never really followed the VFL but its good to see the scorps winning

I'd imagine I've watched nearly all of Hartlett's games and about 2 years of him training.

He's a jet. Injuries cruelled him.

fair enough.. I reckon Toumpas will be fine... as long as we take our time with him, & let him develop. I hope we don't rush him.

Has the tide just turned Jack? :)

It has. We copped some flack when we let GWS get 19 points ahead of us. The media are going to go nuts about this no matter how much the Bombers win by today.

He is a good kick but hasn't settled at AFL level yet. I think he will take the wrong option and back himself to hit targets that are less than 50/50, and also because he can he uses his wrong foot when he should go to his natural. There is still a bit of smart A in Sam and he needs to let it go to realise his potential.

Its all relative, isn't it.

we'll be a lot better once we get a good handle on the Zone were building, & the bigger bodies in, & up to zone speed.

hopefully we go a bit better in the next couple of weeks, & by the mid-season, IMO we'll look like a different team, altogether.

Message to mids at three quarter time - first 10 minutes vital, work harder for longer!

17 tackles that quarter - almost as many in total as first half.

Lower yr eyes going i50.

Blease - earned respect with that quarter.

Welsh - make a statement. Take em on, earn the rewards! Great pump up.

Not much chop comparing Blease's game last week with this week. He copped a whack to the head, labored badly in the heat and then was subbed off. The opposition today isn't anywhere as tough I would imagine.

Thanks so much for the score updates, really appreciate it, how's dawes and fitz and toumpas looking at the moment?

Posted

Well he just used his right and hit the target no drama.

Crouch gets it to Dawes, goal.

71-47 now deep in the third.

DA, every time you bag a player they do something great and we get a goal.

Keep up the good work!

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
