Random Task

Tholstrup sub already?

All psychological with Jeff. He gets to the right spots and has had what, 7 shots at goal in the last game and a half. Needs to start taking his chances obviously but I'm less concerned about him now than I was 4 months ago. Edit: yes he is having a mare of a first half.

Guess we're going to make Moir look like a superstar tonight

Jefferson again alone inside 50 but not seen by trac and long ugly kick to the pocket. Not sure who that 50 was paid against, think they got that one wrong. Turner needs to clean up his short lateral kicks. Langford is a jet. So lucky he is ours.

Love Turner but please stop kicking it sideways to 50/50 contests.

Correct and fixed my post.

Been playing mainly in defence the last two years. 194cm. Was GWS vfl leading goalkicker in 2023 with 35 goals from 18 games.

Lindsay sub

Photos could be misleading. Laurie and Brown in both white and blue jumpers. Petracca and Gawn also in white in one of the photos.

I can't see how that could possibly change the charge but strangers things have happened I guess.

What's below careless? Because it's not like they could argue against severe impact or high contact.

The solution to our forwardline issues.

Possibly his best game yet. I know he kicked 3 against the Hawks earlier this year but today everything he did was damaging. On top of his use of the ball by foot, I was really impressed by his releasing handballs and decision making.

Going to be in an interesting week at selection. May, Petty and Howes could all come in while Sparrow is the only definite out. Billings the other one at Casey to put his hand up for selection. Tholstrup, Lindsay, Windsor and Lever the most at risk of being dropped based off today's performance. Edit: Sharp played OK as well and while I'm not his biggest fan I could easily see the selection committee putting him back into the squad.

6 Melksham 5 Langford 4 Trac 3 Gawn 2 Fritsch 1 Oliver

What does Oliver have to do to win a holding the ball free?

Not writing him off yet but he needs a big pre-season to get properly fit and confident within himself. Don't understand the clubs insistence on playing him in the seniors.

Lindsay looks like he's shadowing mckercher

Tracs kicking has somehow gotten worse.

Jeffo is a natural forward. Needs a [censored] tonne of development but moves well and to good spots. Excellent mark roo.

Tholstrup with 0 stats. I like the kid but he's just not ready.

Langfords kicking a real weapon. Kozzie having some poor chasing efforts.

4 vs 1 and we give away a stupid free.

Someone needs to put some work into McKercher. Carving us up.

Great performance all round. Of the Melbourne players Howes was the standout with Billings, Culley, Sharp, Adams, Mentha and Spargo playing well. Kentfield and Laurie showing flashes of brilliance but perhaps not a consistent 4 quarters. Woewodin and Pup had their moments as well. Fullarton and Hendo probably the two that struggled although Henderson was taken off at half time to be the carry over emergency.
