JvR has a chance from an angle but misses.

Paddy wack 2 goals.

Cross' second goal from a JvR handpass.

Would love this scoreline for tonight’s game.

Good tackle Jack Billings.

Promising signs from Roo and AJ - 8.7 between them

Laurie 32 disposals and 2 goals

Taj 28 disposals and 7 tackles

Sestan 27 disposals

Brown 24 disposals and 1 goal

Billings 25 disposals

Henderson 2 goals

@KC from Casey is it true that Howsie was pulled off at halftime? Boots off, no longer playing in this match?

Let's hope no late outs (May)

Strong body work by JVR in that last minute

Bit of an understatement, but that was a good win...

That was a real slaughter, Tigers were really shocking and our system and intensity was a step above.

Great to see Roo get some touch but I can't say anyone else stood out very much.

Only caught the last quarter but great 20 goal win.

Hard for AJ and JVR to stamp their form.

Bye again next week.

Great signs for the club though

Unfortunately, the siren has sounded.

VFL thoughts after watching:

• Laurie: classy/silky, and generally a decent decision maker, but a fraction slow - in running and being aware of what’s around him

• JvR: back to his physical / athletic best. A good kick for goal too.

• Billings: good all round player who is a class above at VFL. But lacks one or two key strengths that would set him above at AFL (and a little slow with a shorter kick)

• Taj Woey: like Laurie, but even more so, too slow in decision making and not aware of what’s around him and the urgency required sometimes

VFL... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

The third quarter against the wind was where the gameplan finally clicked.

Exciting and entertaining

Phenomenal result considering the scores were level at quarter time.

Good point.

I can’t remember his name being mentioned in the 2nd half

Pity AJ’s goal kicking is so poor. He marks and presents well.

It's normal I believe for the stand in emergency to play a half and then go on standby.

Would not read overly much into it

Two byes in three weeks is ludicrous.

This. Laurie was taken off at half time in round 1 to be the carry over emergency. Common practice for games played on the same day in the same state.
