Review Round 5: Sat 22 April at 13:05 - Box Hill Hawks vs Coburg Lions

[Davo-27]

Weddle is taking the piss this quarter

Weddles best game so far, he has been great in so many areas, run and carry, 1 percenters, disposal on point, intercept marks, defensive contests, ect

 

[Kuuz]

Great passage of play.

Bramble with a running kick to Jeka, who takes a nice contested grab on the wing. Hands off to Weddle, who bounds to the 50 and kicks a lovely ball to Butler bang in front.

Beautiful play.

 

[peetoo]

Weddle Ramma Blanck Kosi Jeka is just unfair big man power at this level

Lovin it. Casey will be a true test tho

 

[Davo-27]

Coburg got the free and got an overlap for an easy goal

BHH 73 - 42 Coburg

 

[kenneje]

Filthy with the non high decision, Stephens went in hard and kicked a great goal. Looking good.

 

[VandoHawk]

Ever since I criticised him Coop has been really good, good goal out of the stoppage

 

[Davo-27]

Bennetts blocks Stephens opponent to give him an open run from a boundary throw in and Stephens snaps a goal from 30m

BHH 79 - 42 Coburg

Stephens has had a great 3rd quarter so far

 

[Hawks1994]

Stephens is starting to show a little bit

 

[rei154]

Kosi looked damaged.

 

[Davo-27]

Kosi might have hurt his leg? Injury? but running off so not too bad

 

[Davo-27]

Jepsen a beautiful kick to Clark for Coburg

BHH 79 - 50 Coburg

 

[hawkman]

For me it has been a disappointing performance today despite the lead

For me it has been a disappointing performance today despite the lead

Coburg just look more desperate than us. We're winning based off just being better + our defence holding up structurally.

 

[Jaeger007]

How’s Jek going in his first outing for the year returning from hamstring injury?

 

[Hawks1994]

Moving the ball well, but our last kick is generally a high dump ball to noone in particular

 

[Mojo]

For me it has been a disappointing performance today despite the lead

Tbf, coming up against the bottom team is always an obstacle in it's own way.

 

[VandoHawk]

Weddle was a juggernaut that quarter, both defensively and offensively.
Cooper Stephens built into the game nicely.
BMac is surprisingly good defensively for a running small.
Expected a bit more from Meek.

 

[Dazza the Viking]

Looks like BH just going through the motions

 

[dermott]

For me it has been a disappointing performance today despite the lead

Agreed. Weddle has been great but Coburg seems to have controlled the game more but kicked themselves out of it.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Weddle with 21 and 9 marks. He’s putting his had up.

Ramma too.

Kosi has had a really good game, and I’ve liked Jeka’s return.

 

[Hawks1994]

Just reiterating other peoples thoughts; Weddle looks like he could be anything. Reminds me alot of Nick Blakey

[The Jet From Poowong]

For me it has been a disappointing performance today despite the lead

I know what you mean

It happens when in the players own mind they have won the game before it even started. Standards drop and players become a little more self centred

And a lot of the forward entries have just been a long bomb

 

[TylerDurden]

Weddle is clearly above the level.

 

[VandoHawk]

If only Thorpe was a bit younger, he's fantastic to watch.

Cooper to BMac, Weddle kicks into the 50 and Thorpe strong pack mark.

 

[Davo-27]

Weddle to Thorpe kicks a goal from 40m near the boundary

BHH 85 - 50 Coburg
