Review Round 4, 2023: Box Hill Hawks v Collingwood, 16 April 2023, 12.00pm @ BHCO

[Bardo State]

Beasley with a htb tackled around his ear

'Little bit of arm around shoulder' says Barlow as the Pies player grabs Beasley by the neck, pulls him down and gets rewarded lol

Wet weather footy they let that stuff go a bit more, not as strict on high contact because it's slippery

Just looked really funny on replay because it was all neck. We are definitely getting the rub of the green.

Yeah don't mind if they let more go in the wet - the game will naturally have a lot more stoppages, so want to avoid scrum packs as much as possible.

 

[SJT76]

Joined the broadcast about 5 mins into the 2nd. From that point, I thought Bennetts was best on, and Lynch excellent around the ground and OK in the ruck. Bennetts and O’Sullivan seem to work well together.

Brown also good, but kicks a few floaters.

Kosi not too bad - I think the wet suits him, so no-one else is marking and he can impact on the ground.

 

[TylerDurden]

Ramma is starting to look more threatening in the air, forced the defender to panic there and drew a free kick.

Correct. Looks super threatening every time. Holds his ground well in a fwd marking contest. He's a natural tall fwd.

 

[Judd2Sewell]

JO'S, Bennetts, Butler and Brockman is a really nice group of young small forwards/HFF's.

 

[Davo-27]

Cooper Stephens is in the players room with a tracksuit on, must be injured

HT - BHH 76 - 29 Coll

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Lynch been awesome.

Reckon Bennets is a player.

Bennetts has smarts and workrate. That gets you places.
Picks the ball up in the second, gave the hands out and then puts his head down for 10 meters and bursts to find space on the outside and then ends up getting it back - we subsequently goal.

I like him a lot.

 

[Davo-27]

Porter kicks to Thorpe who stands on his opponent to take a speccy

Kicks the goal from 40m on an angle

BHH 82 - 29 Coll

 

[Davo-27]

Lynch hit out to adv, Brown free kick

 

[Davo-27]

Brown good win in the wet to JOS, Kicks to Kosi free kick 50m on boundary, missed shot, behind

 

[Flag08]

Classic Kozi

 

[Judd2Sewell]

O'Sullivan is everywhere

 

[Kuuz]

Nice run on the wing Weddle - I like to see that!

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Classic Kozi

Should have hit the top of the square

 

[Davo-27]

Weddle has had a couple of good runs on the wing, just hasn't hit targets i50

 

[VandoHawk]

Weddle and BMac combined well there

 

[Kuuz]

Weddle and BMac combined well there

BMac was so clean off that ground ball get. Really quick hands - he's done something like that two games in a row, where he's just super quick at passing off clean by hand, under pressure.

 

[Davo-27]

Bramble caught htb when Wedd.e was right next to him open for a handball...

Weddle always seems to play better in 2nd half of games, good endurance

 

[grumbleguts]

Free kick count 18-7 our way. This is what it must feel like being a Bulldogs supporter.

 

[Kuuz]

Blanck has been solid as houses in the backline. He's just so solid.

 

[Davo-27]

BMac with a good run and inside 50 and out of the chaos Thorpe snaps his 3rd goal

BHH 89 - 29 Coll

 

[Kuuz]

Been watching Ethan Stanley too from Box Hill - I was super impressed with the young lad last week, he was just so solid in a mixed inside-outside role, had a lot of good ground-ball gets & I50s. His positioning just seems to be really good, always pops up in the right spot.

Been a little more muted this game, but expecting him to play out the 2nd half well with it drying up a bit.
