I'm not sure size is the mitigating factor here.

I hate to say it, but Toby Greene is a superstar.

There's no match up for him when the ball hits the ground.

Yep. He's too strong & too good overhead for small defenders, a just quick enough for tall defenders not to be able to take him, a genuine game breaking player.

Neal - Bullen - important for us

Harsh on a couple here.

Brayshaw was our only winning mid early. Fritsch kicked 3 up against an AA defender

 

 

Oliver: An immature performance.

Pickett: Proving me wrong.

Mcdonald: Lost at sea.

Spargo: Good despite miss.

Rivers: lacks defensive iq 
* a bit harsh but a lot of his mistakes are costly.

 


We are in a good place and everyone chipped in when it was their turn, GWS got away with a lot of holding and crude tackles which caused them more pain than us.!!!

Gawn - best on ground

Langdon - all australian year

Petracca - knows he's good 

Viney - best clearance player

Lever - good in close

Hunt - our second winger

Brayshaw- steady good performance

Salem - good once again

Oliver - should rest forward

Jordon - works very hard

Pickett - Davey, Farmer, Pickett

Tomlinson - career best season?

Rivers - love his game

Jackson - won his battle

Neal- Bullen - did his job

May - lost to Greene

Fritsch - our best target

Spargo - pressured opposition well

McDonald - tried, no reward.

Jones - was steady today

Sparrow - covered the ground

Jetta - unlucky few times

why rest forward. He can't kick straight for goal. 

Gus mitigated a lot of the spread and pace GWS generated early. Could have gotten ugly if not for him, Langdon, Salem and Hunt early. They zoned well and stopped what was at the start a very quick moving Giants. 


Interesting Joeboy.  I think your a bit harsh on some, we did win easily from quarter time. But  always good to see another’s views.

we were not perfect but I thought our back 6 worked it out really well. They will only get better with more games together. Tomlinson is far more composed than Omac or Frost ever was. Is frosty still playing for the hawks or is he injured ?

Brayshaw's best game this season by far.

I agree here and im a big fan, but he has to clean up some off his kicking 

Rivers had 16 disposals at 100% efficiency, 2 contested marks and 3 score involvements playing at half back and last week he had 20 disposals at 90% efficiency, 4 score involvements and another contested mark. Not sure his IQ is much of a problem at this stage, he seems to make really good decisions with the ball in hand.

Plays with a maturity beyond his years.

Small sample will be ok next time let him learn on the job.!

" some of" ." Most of" more likely

If if wasn't for Hunt stinking up his run with his kicking we'd setting loose the hounds onto Brayshaw. 

Only Cam Bruce could  kick more up and unders   but he' d perfected the helicopter

Dr D, I reckon the ability to go forward and kick goals is the next part for Oliver to develop in his game, especially as he will continue to cop close attention from the opposition. It's probably the one thing that will take home from being an elite player to a superstar.

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
