I haven’t paid close attention to the league this season but a Victory v City and Sydney v Macarthur in week 1 of finals should be some really appealing fixtures to get some enthusiasm going into finals.
It’s done and Calder Cannons use it as a home base.
Probably sufficient for TAC Cup but the gulf in standards between that an AFL training venue would be chalk and cheese.
Young was excellent down back. Used the ball alright considering his limitations.
Dow did well in the guts, hoping he can put on some strength as he still gets out bodied by the seasoned midfielders of the game.
MRJ excellent, best game I’ve seen him play. Hopefully he builds on it and gets...
Best game by a mile that I’ve seen MRJ ever.
Been outstanding.
Really wish we had one of Balta or Lynch on the park. Our forward line is so disfunctional without them, Lafau trying but it’s too much of an ask for him to take the #1 defender in the air.
I’ll make people sick in saying this but we need to take a leaf out of Collingwoods book in 2021.
On paper they had a horror year.
Finished 17th and won 6 matches for the year.
Yet when you scratch the surface you see they have a % of 85 and we’re largely competitive in a majority of their...
MRJ and Brown were stiff to miss out of my top 5.
Very impressed with what Yze has done to date.
If we had one of Lynch, Balta, Prestia or Hopper on the park for a full match we would’ve beaten Carlton and St Kilda and we would be looking far more promising with 3 wins.
We are playing the kids...
In Picketts defence he had about 5 consecutive efforts in a row and that’s why he was gassed with his effort 30 secs later.
If it was on our interchange end he would’ve gone off for a spell.
Still if he marked the chest mark he would’ve avoided having to do the 5 efforts.
As good of a first quarter we could’ve hoped for.
Ben Miller has been impressive down back as it scared me a bit on how their forwards usually get on top of us from the get go.
Bolton and Dusty have been amazing so far.
Let’s hope we can keep the pressure up!
Correct.
I remember going down to watch Richmond’s reserves on a Monday night there in 2000. Was certainly weird seeing a couple of hundred people there is such a big stadium but enjoyed that you could go on the field at the quarter time breaks and have a kick to kick.
I’m pretty sure they did...
I’ve turned it on for 10 mins and I reckon I’ve seen 5-0 free kicks, x2 50m penalties and 2-3 goals gifted to Carlton and halted Norths chances inside 50.
Ultimate momentum shifter.
If that’s been the story of the game Clarko is going to erupt in the presser.
Excuse the ignorance but how many sides were in the BDJFL?
I’m probably wrong but it was a couple of sides from Benalla and Mansfield but didn’t field sides like Goorambat and Bonnie Doon?
-Our midfield is trash. Said it in the match day thread but Taranto, Dow, Ross and Bolton as our main mids is really weak and not damaging by foot.
-If we didn’t get Taranto and Hopper we would’ve spiralled to WCE levels with Cotch, Jack, Grimes, Dusty and Lynch’s final years.
-Our disposal by...
Ultimately our starting midfield is trash let alone our rotations.
Taranto, Ross, Dow and Bolton is a physically soft midfield and we’re lucky to be in it with this sort of midfield.
