Fat Tony 5,337 Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 Howes looks fantastic at VFL level and will be an very good player. But he looks like he needs to get fitter and stronger. I would like to see a bit more intensity in the contest as well. 2 1 Quote

Speaking of pumps, Corro can use one for the new farm he got from the Cats. Seriously though, I don’t blame him for coaching closer to home. 1 Quote
rjay 25,428 Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 This is the game we needed to see from Howes... Now he's just got to be consistent & a spot will open up for him. 4 Quote

Played a lot of mopping of half back and then through the centre when the ball was around the ground. I might have missed him at a centre bounce if he was at them(?). He played really well, but I'm not so sure he would be pushing into the team unless there are injuries or someone really has a terrible, terrible game. There is a lot to work with there, but it wasn't like JJ last week. I thought Tomlinson was probably best on for us. But that is just my opinion. 3 1 Quote
Demon Disciple 12,538 Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 Loving the progress of Howes, with further gym and development, he could just about play anywhere on the ground. Jefferson should not be considered at all this year in the seniors, very raw and talented but needs some serious size on him 3 1 Quote
MadAsHell 4,217 Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 Was an interesting match today. Considering the Swans kicked a couple of junk time goals and Casey still won by 7 goals, one would think they completely dominated the match, however at stages it felt like Sydney could have easily won the match. Sydney dominated the first quarter and large portions of the 3rd term, however they missed some gettable shots and Casey were very good at getting goals when required against the grain which was the difference between the two sides. I was more impressed with Casey's win this week then I was last week. Last week we pretty much dominated the game and it was only as close as it was because we kicked 1.9 to start the match. This week Sydney were right in the match and dominated sections of the match. We also only had 11 senior listed players in the team this week compared to 16 last week I think it was. A great team effort in the circumstances. A few things of note today; 1. Both Tom McDonald and Adam Tomlinson played like men desperate to get back in the seniors. McDonald marked everything that came his way and was a constant presence, while Tomlinson was a real general down back. Tomlinson had his hands full at times, as the battle between he and Hayden McLean was a good contest to watch with them out-bodying each other on different occasions, but if you had to award the points one way or the other, you'd have to give them to Tomlinson. Also their leadership and instructions to team-mates and where to go was top notch. 26 minutes into the final term and 7 goals up and Tomlinson was still telling the midfielders off for giving up 4 clearances in a row. Was great to see. 2. Both Sestan and Moniz-Wakefield have real x-factor about them. Sestan didn't get much of it, but he kicked 2 and created plenty of opportunities for others. He's a natural goal kicker by the looks of things and I can see him keeping the pressure on someone like Fritsch as a mid sized forward. While Moniz-Wakefield looks really clean and dangerous whenever he's around. He also looks pretty good in the air. Just needs to get a left foot IMO. 3. Matt Jefferson has sticky hands. Love his marking ability and I expect that he'll have a strong year at Casey before getting a bit more muscle on his frame before he can put his hand up in 2024 and beyond for a senior chance. 4. I like Hayden McLean from Sydney. A few years ago I'd suggest we target him as a potential target. Though with Van Rooyen and Jefferson coming through the ranks and Setan a good mid-sized developing player as well, he probably isn't on our radar. One to keep an eye on though. 5. The egg and bacon rolls were back! 11 5 1 Quote
