JKH should of kicked that.

JKH laid 18 tackles and had 16 touches. Not getting a recall but he's put in. We've got control now but we need to score (we just did from Scott). 

Bugg a sneaky for a finals recall. 2 games before AFL finals, will have put together a case by then.

jkh has laid 19 tackles since the start of the second quarter - don't reckon i saw him lay one in the first, but he's been excellent defensively since

watts since his report has got on his bike and used his pace around the contest and ball-winning ability to impact and use it well; but he's a liability without the ball - does not tackle, does not chase

about to chalk up 5 wins in a row for casey as they go 17 up at the 28 minute mark

And there's the siren.

 

Good win considering the conditions.

 

And whats with all the mo's from the Casey boys?

how much sledging do u reckon watts is getting out there? He'd be an easy target. But that report it didn't look that bad but who would know. 

Was marginally late if that, impact was one level above creampuff, wasn't front on or high, was to the back of the hip area,.no swinging arm or fist was with the body, lucky to even be worth 50 metres.

Frost would be a good player if he had some awareness

Minor details. Look at the great career of St Kilda's Raph Clarke, the very first indigenous player with no peripheral vision whatsoever. I'm backing him in.

Watts 20 disposals and a goal.

 

He wont get suspended for that.

My thoughts watching the game

Watts - maybe we need to play him on the wing? Whenever he was on the ball he was outstanding when he was in the forward 50 he looked annoyed and disinterested at times. It is a wet game but when he was around the ball it looked dry. Just so clean with the ball and showed why he is far beyond this level. End of the game he went back to the backline and controlled the ball. 20 touches 12 marks. "If I get done for that..." Speaks so well and loves the tem. 

Bugg - Just got better as the game went on. He'll have a huge week for us next week in the 2's and hopefully with Salem will help us win in the first week of VFL (and AFL?) finals. The stats will come out and have no doubt it will have a heap of it. The thing it wont have is the 5 odd almost disposals in the first quarter which wont be counted. 24 touches and 12 tackles. 18 contested possessions. 

Weid - Some decent delivery and he would be in the conversation. He did everything we know he can. Kicked beautifully, led strongly at the ball and took some good marks, tackled hard, went missing. He looked like the most talented player on the field at times. 

Frost - above and beyond the level. He is so strong, reads the play well. Didnt take it on as much this game. He defended well, and showed a really good leaders game. He looked like a captain at times. 

Keilty - why did we ever play him forward? He was really strong in the air, read the ball really well. Needs better disposal to make me not want Lever. He is exactly what Dunn and Garland gave us last year. 

JKH - stats are going to be awesome but dont be fooled. He'll be unhappy with his polish. Really good application but didnt have the polish that he can have. In and around the contest but a lot of his tackles werent game saving. Buggs were. 

King - better as the game went on. killed in the first and looked better and better. Doing not enough around the ground but looks good in the ruck. 

Trenners - held really well after quarter time. Did some nice things in the last. Not his best game but it was a Grimes like game. 

Hulett - a couple of good goals, I'd like to see him on the rookie list as I think there is something there. We need to work out how to get him into the game more. 

Maynard - A little like Oliver. I could say that I didnt see him much with the ball but easily could have 20+ possies. He is going to get there, I just wish he was 19 not 25. He does look like he is a year away from being a good AFL player. He reminds me a lot of AVB and whilst they play different roles, they have a similar hunger for the contest.

Wow just saw that watts report... that umpire needs a break if he thinks thats reportable...

That interview with Watts was promising looks like he is in a good space. Expect him the line up against the pies next week.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
