Demon Jack

Somehow, someway, JVR gets one to dribble through against the wind! Becomes our eighth individual goalkicker. 51-21

Disposals Windsor - 10 Langford - 8 Howes - 7 Rivers - 7 Lindsay - 7 Goals to Windsor, Gawn, Laurie, Sharp, Tholstrup, Langford and Chandler

He looked ok there! He justed kicked a beauty! 44-19

Petty struggling on Lynch

Bill slots our sixth! Windsor (who set that up with a nifty tap) has been awesome. Fritsch has also been good playing higher up the ground.

Pickett x2 have been quiet so far Tholstrup unloads for Melbourne 5th goal of the quarter!

Sharpy soccers another after a brilliant centre clearance! 26-12

Chandler goals after some nice work from Sharp and Windsor.

Howes continuing his good form. Highest disposal getter alongside Langford for the Demons.

TMac just ran onto the ground and looks to be playing forward.

Early days, but I'm really liking our forward 50 entries so far. JVR juuuuuust misses Chandler in the pocket.

We're back on and Maxy goals straight away after a pinpoint pass from Langdon. 12-0

On the plus side, that coast to coast play that led to the Langford goal looked realllllly good!

What is it with our luck with lightning delays?

Lindsay too please 🙏.

Jon Ralph just mentioned Jefferson will potentially be on the sidelines for a 'couple of months'. Kentfield debut loading...

Tommy Matthews on the bench 🔥🔥🔥

It sounds as though Tommy Matthews had a solid game for Casey in their practice hit our after the Melbourne vs North game. I think I read somewhere that he kicked two and took a hanger. Would love to see him get a quarter or two against Richmond.

I'm a Jeffo believer but Kentfield showed much more yesterday.

I didn't mind JVR's game. Didn't set the world on fire, but he worked up the ground a fair bit and was involved in quite a few goals. If he keeps showing that work rate every week, the rewards will come.

I'm not saying our midfield/forward connection has magically been fixed in the off-season, but how good was it to see our midfielders actually LOWERING THEIR EYES when kicking inside 50 instead of bombing it long.

Love or hate our recruiting department and their track record over the last few seasons, I think they've nailed our approach to this. Langford, Lindsay, Windsor, Tholstrup and now Latrelle and Taylor. Plus we'll have at least another two first rounders to play with at the end of this season.

6. K.Pickett 5. Steele 4. Heath 3. L.Pickett 2. Kentfield 1. Howes

What are the odds of Howes getting a round 1 gig? I think he's been really good today playing as a winger. Meanwhile, Sharp kicks a goal in this weird two-minute scenario thing.

Jeffo mostly unsighted sadly. Kolt had some iffy moments early but has been ok since. Took a nice contested mark and goaled earlier in the quarter.
