Song, I always read your Jack Viney quote when you post. But if you replace Viney with Watts, it's entire meaning changes, doesn't it. Ok, I'm bored.

Just reporting what I'm seeing

No, you're interpreting what you're seeing.

BTW, seeing spelling has come to be part of the thread, its crapping. Two p's.

Ughh....our only decent player with attacking flair/run off HB and he's out after his return game at Casey for a few minutes. Amazing....should i say it? :unsure:

You think it's a fair observation?

To single out one particular player for harsh criticism in a side that got belted?

And all that without having even seen the match!

Madness.

Heard Garlands name in the call for the last couple of minutes of the game. So he must be ok.
Evidently MFC listed players pretty/very/extremely ordinary today. Callers said no forwards. So I expect a tall to be drafted this year - no doubt. Amazing pre season most were saying we were overloaded with tall forwards - what a difference a month makes.

WJ how has Gawn played and did Spencer play today?

Max did reasonably well in the ruck and around the ground. He dominated the hitouts although his onballers didn't really take advantage (except with the exception of McKenzie). He had 49 hit outs and 18 possessions according to the Scorpions Facebook page.

I can back up WJ on that one, Max was probably the best listed player in my eyes.

Started slowly but really worked into the game and was excellent in the ruck, which wasn't really capitalized on by the midfield.

Also thought Riley and Harmes tried hard without much return.

Overall no one grabbed the opportunity presenting itself which in itself was disappointing.

Most of Clisby and Riley's best work was done in the second half. They did very little in the first half.

Players such as Blease, Strauss and Tapscott have to do a lot of work to earn a game at any level above where they are at present.

Harmes was in and out of the game and was off with a finger injury a couple of times.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
