Neal-Bullen continues to be a chain killer.  Every period of good clean possession ends when he gets it.

It's either a fumble or a ridiculous attempt at a handball.

 

He’s doing ok. Hibberd and Vanders look to be battling. I hope they play Hore in the second half. Spargo also AWOL.

[Wiseblood 24,637]

However, one big positive have been Langdon and Tomlinson, especially in their roles:

30 disposals and 11 marks between them roaming up the wings.  Absolutely what we've been crying out for.

Disposal is a little shaky at times but, again, that can be forgiven a little due to the time of the year and conditions. Great pick ups for the club.

[spirit of norm smith 16,449]

Yes some familiar Weid and Anb footy. 
 

Langdon is the real deal.  Fritsch is ready to kick 4-5!
 

Lockhart is a lock for round 1 imo.

Would prefer he didn’t to be honest.

What happened to vanders says he was subbed off with injury on AFL Site

The AFL website does that all the time.  Says they're injured, then two minutes later they're back on the field.  It's annoying.

more than ever, but he still has no polish and that hurts us as a team.  We are so light on for skilled players.

If we're going to improve we can carry players with sub-par skills.

What in gods name is that free for???

That umpire was stolen by gypsies as a child. The gypsies realised he was no good and left him in the forest for the bears to raise.

The bears rejected him and wouldn't even eat him. He had no proper upbringing and developed neither acceptable social skills nor the ability to interact with decent folk. The AFL saw his potential to be a field umpire where his background and skill set wouldn't be any sort of hindrance. 

Here he is tonight making soft decisions leading to a Hawthorn goal. Should we expect anything different ??? Hell no.

He’s off getting some WD 40 for rust.

[dazzledavey36 54,883]

Langdon while good, his disposal by foot has been poor. Tomlinson has been good.

Lockhart BOG for me. Has been stiff by these maggots.

The game has been very sloppy though. Play like this against WC and we'll get slaughtered.

Yea I’m not watching the game just reading updates on here and checking AFL Site, so there is nothing wrong with him 

[praha 11,240]

AFL site saying Vanders injured. Update?

[Wiseblood 24,637]

Anyone think we rest Gawn and May for the second half?  Or do we give them another quarter?

Maxy running laps must be done for the match

Might have been when he clashed with someone in the marking contest just before Viney's goal.

Disposal has been worse than Langdon, both getting to good positions and providing an outlet.

[dazzledavey36 54,883]

Vanders hurt his foot. Kicked it into someone and saw him grab it straight away.

[Wells 11 5,399]

It’s a pretty ordinary looking game. It’s a good physical hit out but I’m not seeing too much to get excited about in our style yet bar real endeavour.

Tomlinson missing targets but Langdon kicking over his shoulder. Thats [censored]. May trying to drill passes too low and intercepted.

Didn't see him in the room cam. Hoping for the best.

Th at half volley mark against him was red hot. Not paid then what was he supposed to do? 

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,775]

Replay view showed AvB looked to get a decent corkie in the contest before Viney goal, but was labouring a bit before that
