Did Schofield even get looked at? There’s no mention of him at all in the Match Review findings.

This is exactly what we want, trying to fit everyone in. Personally, I like the move of Harmes to HB. He’s become Mr Reliable, if need be shove him in the guts when an oppo mid is running riot.

Indeed it was 3183, lump in the throat moment especially after seeing Langdon give Bennell the biggest hug. Great stuff!

We managed to get to second in our conference despite Carlton winning today. Hoping for a big win next week to consolidate before a fortnight of travel and hopefully add on some more percentage which of course hasn’t been our best friend in recent seasons. No one likes to get ahead of themselves of course but of all clubs we should know a thing or two about percentage and how vital it can be in such a short season.

The Freo v Blues game should have been scheduled in an adults only time slot. Gerard Healy has labelled the first half as a masterclass in butchering. Inexcusable misses from 15m out directly in front, can’t believe I sat through that.

Haha, my initial thought was the whole of DL jumped on, it’s $4.80 on TAB. The Shark was an impressive winner in the Chipping Norton Macca.

Papley looks good in a blue jumper.... oh wait.

Jetta - 7 Disposals at 100% efficiency , 4 intercept possessions and 2 score involvements. BOG!

Punish them!!! Nice goal Hore. Some whistles have been swallowed it seems.

It would be interesting to see the ‘Tracker’ for this game. Brown just does not stop running, this way that way, boy he works his azz off. Must admit I had a bit of giggle when the North backs were bickering with each other when things weren’t going their way. Did they rest Tarrant in the second half? Didn’t notice him at all. Anyone know why they were calling O Mac ‘Porter’?

Any chance we can get our R23 clash against this mob moved to Arden St? An enjoyable match, looks like competition for spots is fierce. Much to like, J Wagner didn’t get a lot of mentions in the Game day thread, thought he was quite good and steady.

What a take by Gussy to set that up.

Might only be a scratch match but there are players here clearly trying their hardest to make an impression and impressing they are. Some of the ball movement out of defence has been first class and intensity is through the roof.

Exactly what Tomlinson was saying to Lockhart after Lockhart went inboard and turned the ball over leading to North’s first goal. Interesting listening as the North player was lining up. Tomlinson basically told him there was no need to go toward the centre at all. He praised him for the nifty footwork but Tomlinson had led to the boundary and that’s where the ball should have gone.

Spargo has started really well. Watching him close up and he’s made some smart decisions in traffic.

Yeah, heading down at this stage. Only chance to see some of the boys live before the real stuff begins.

A compelling 17 minutes of viewing. Can’t really add much more, will have to watch that again.

I liked Jackson’s intent at getting the ball. Just a small observation. When he was contesting centre bounces there were a couple of occasions when the ball went forward our way off hands and he took off chasing it really fast, even outran our mids to it after jumping. On both occasions he didn’t win the ball as the Crows back flankers beat him to it. The slightly more experienced O’Brien ran the other way and ended up being on the end of it at half forward. No concern there, as I’m sure he will learn when to go for the ball and when to follow his direct opponent. I was mainly fascinated by his agility and instinct to compete.

Stand to be corrected, but don’t they usually call up the captain/s last when they present the players up on stage at the family day? It seems a little odd if they call Viney up as captain and then we hear a change in the next few days.

Replay is on soon, Trac’s performance warrants another viewing I think.

Can’t ask for more than that first up really. Enjoyed the hit out, some really good signs and a bit to work on at the same time. They got through our zone easily a few times but that’s why they have these matches. Love nothing more than crunching tackles ( Viney and Vanders) especially late in games. Hopefully Jones not serious as that seems the only injury. He was looking so good.

Weid!!!!!

Some crazy tackling this quarter. Good sign late in a game on a warmish day.
