The odd splattered disposal is a feature of Hunt’s game in general unfortunately, particularly by hand. I place him in a similar category to Frost - plays an exciting style of game and does a lot right, but always a chance to do a few things in a game that make your eyes water.

Surprised at the negativity on Jones’ game. I thought he had a pretty tidy game, especially considering he was on for the entire second half without break. Where and when were these terrible mistakes?

I thought Jones was one of our best. His spearing kick to Tmac was a ripper but it bounced off Tmac’s chest it was that good.

Agree. Really liking him at HB. His kicking has been excellent and goes some way to balancing the woeful kicking of Frost and Fritter.

Weiderman- Nearly there game

Fine line between a good game and bad game, kicks those 2 goals that he one in the first and one in the second he has a good game, missed both badly and it goes the other way.

Having just recovered from wedding + post wedding "recovery" function (I can't keep up these days), I've just watched the reply -

Frost does seriously good things when under pressure - it is a bit of a wild ride, but his closing speed and bravery are priceless, I reckon.

Mostly agree, only ones I'd change personally are...

Viney - Bullocking but dumb.

Frost - Contract extension time.

Brayshaw - Should be dropped.

Dunkley - Coupla nice moments.

 

I think lgical football people would drop a few before Gus. Otherwise agree wtrh post.

Sure, finally decided to lay a tackle once he was put in the middle, but still seems to be struggling to get around to contests. 2 clearances is poor IMO, and his disposal is not any better. Just think he's been 'off' all year and if he's carrying a niggle (which I've heard is the case) he should be sent off to get right for preseason.

 

The reson he did not have many clearances is because he is not in there as much as last year.  Pretty hard to get a clearance when you are told to be 30 m away

Jones. You're joking. 

Dunkley. Some good things under pressure 

May. Saved the game.

Petty. Shows potential 

Frost. Starting 22 in 2020

Neal bullen. B grade

Viney. Not a thinking footballer

Oliver. Leadership in spades

Frost - B&F top 10.

Agree with everything bar Dunkley.  Like Matthews said about Watts' first game, I didn't see any component to hang a hat on.

Lockhart - Courage courage courage.

We're talking about yesterday's game, and he played plenty of time in the middle.

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. 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.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.
