The players felt too much pressure knowing you were watching. Once you switched off, they relaxed and kicked away.

Ye of so little faith.
I didn't switch off !! (............................ But I was pelting stuff at the TV and cursing severely
)
Game is kicking off now, you can watch it on the AFL app.
Henry Smith with the first goal from 40m out
It would appear we didn’t learn from the Morris situation v GC. All three emergencies in Joyce, Smith & Tunstill playing today. Assume one or two might be rested from half time perhaps.

Or we're just taking a calculated risk
Great chain of handballs down to the forward line there. Shame Lohmann couldn’t finish. Weird having commentators getting most of our players names correct.

We play tomorrow this this time at least.
Great pick up through the pack and goal from Manly.
Tunstill having a good quarter and showing some of the form that has made him a borderline senior selection.

We need to work on kicking with both feet. I've seen both Brain and Tunstill in the left back pocket kick with their right instead of their left to a player on the boundary, which is easier to muck up. In Brain's case it went out on the full, in Tunstill's case, just out of bounds.

Playing all senior emergencies in the reserves is standard operating procedure. One will only play a half.
Box Hill are doing better through the midfield but can't kick straight, whereas we're taking our chances.
Haven’t sighted Shadeau for a while.

Heading into this year, I fully assumed Lane was making up numbers and would be delisted. Now I'm not so sure - has been impressive in multiple games. Could definitely get his fitness to a better level, but we're starting to see the things we hoped we'd see the last few years. I think we should extend him another year.
Tunstill having a fantastic few minutes up forward with two goals- roving the ball up for a dribbler from the pocket and then marking on the goal line.
Shadeau off with hamstring tightness I think they said.
That was a really skilled underground/scrubber kick to kick through two hawks players like an underground handball to pick out Tunstill on the wing. He’s not the neatest player but he’s been the most tenacious on the ground. He’s had a good game.
Edit- sorry Robertson I mean!

Robertson!
Actually had the better of the umpires for once. Good pressure all Over the ground and appeared to be doing better in the contests.
Hasn't been a stoppage-heavy game (by modern standards) and quarters have gone 27, 28 and 25 minutes.

What's with the top ups playing with low numbers?
Great grab Lohmann

Something to do with the indigenous jumpers?

See you on the 9th green at 9
Remember when Wingard used to be a big name player?
Is this his first game back after the Achilles? Or whatever injury it was he had
