I was a massive fan of us getting Daw and wanted to see him play seniors, having watched him today, he is a mile off it

Pending rest of the game, it could be something like Brown and Jones/Melk in, Sparrow and Spargo/Kozzy out.

We're much better than Essendon but haven't made it count on the scoreboard. I'm having a feeling of deja vu

was out there for sure

I’m not fussed about Browns goal kicking. We know he can kick. 
I am more interested if he’s taking overhead marks and getting good separation on his opponent.

He is, has taken 6 or 7 marks so far and looking a lot fitter 

[KC from Casey 6,761]

Casey’s been inaccurate in front of goal. That’s kept Essendon in the game to some extent.

at vfl he should be dominateing and he is not

Chocos out there doing his thing. Encouraging the next generation.

He has kicked 3.2, equal second in marks and no one else has kicked more than one goal.

Not bad for first game in 5 weeks

You have my vote.

[Kick_It_To_Pickett 3,091]

On the 2nd half form, Brown walks in to the side. Forget how many goals. His marking is back.

That is false on many levels. Very few experienced forwards go to the VFL and dominate. Delivery, poor windy grounds and poor quality teammates often means key forwards struggle the most at this level. We know Brown can play AFL. The questions remain over his fitness. If he’s looking strong and fit he gets a recall. Doesn’t need to kick 10 goals. 
 

Edit: he also doesn’t need to kick 10 at senior level. He needs to take marks, compete in the air and on the lead and provide a meaningful target. Fritsch best games this year were when Brown was deep forward taking away defenders.

Ben Brown drops a mark but recovers at ground level, wheels around and hits Weid, who kicks poorly and almost puts it on the full - slight angle 40 m out. 

[Graeme Yeats' Mullet 6,455]

Jones would have to be close to inclusion off today's form...

Dunno who you drop tho

[KC from Casey 6,761]

Weideman misses after a pass from Brown. A couple of gettable opportunities wasted.

[Jaded No More 59,978]

What’s happened to Weid’s goal kicking? His confidence is shot. He needs to talk to a sports psychologist.
