At the ground where we just kicked into the wind. Was howling when Wieds took his kick hence the poor trajectory.

Positives:

- Smith is a player

- Salem is all class and involved a lot

- Jones and Viney involved in everything

- VB Cans only $5

- Trac and Bradshaw both busy

 

Negatives

- too Hogan conscious in the first quarter

- need some beater kicks and not bombing going inside 50

- easy goals from WB from half forward

- TMac having a pretty sour game so far

 

 

At least you are spared the commentary team fawning over Cloke and the Doggies. You wouldn't know the Dees were playing.

That's their big party trick ..... need to work out the counter if the umps are not going to police the questionable handballs

No, we will be. Were were in a position to put a beating on this mob. We got complacent, made some mistakes, now they are in the game.

Its bucket worthy eh 

Joel Smith would have to be pretty happy with his first half! I'm excited!

Interesting to see Salem being all about contested possessions and handballs, working in the middle.

If I let myself hype, Sam Weidemann sounds like he might be a useful mark-kick-goal-repeat player for us, while Hogan roams wild.

 

Saw Wagner on crutches. Did they give an update?

Not yet, although crutches doesn't fill you with confidence.  Hopefully they're just doing it as a precaution.

yes, they're not saying knee or ankle, but possibly something with the fibula.

Hogan is a beast! Contested mark against two dogs and a goal!

His knee was strapped wasn't it? That precludes ankle. 

outstanding mark by hogan, and a smoother run-up to drill the goal

Kicked 9 goals. Still only footage of Wagner hobbling off the ground.

JKH in the round 1 team?

i'll say it again - brayshaw is a very poor kick who regularly misses targets.

under no pressure we had an easy 50 entry and brayshaw turned it over - and they got a goal as a result

Yes  apalling  not one highlight have i seen!!!

 

Umps very quick to call holding/dropping ball to us. Not so quick the other way. 

Spencer looks good.

That's what happens when you drop the ball from just below your chin.

Oliver is a like a vacuum when that ball hits the deck.

That's what happens when you're playing the "better" team. and they're the premiers on top of that. Get used to it.

agreed.

he can't kick properly and trac gives hospital handballs - fortunately things that they can work on.

Tibia/fibula joint strapped for Wagner. 

Brian Lake has absolutely no future as a boundary rider.  Hopeless.

Look to hearing him for the next 15 years.
