Review Walyalup Remain Undefeated Thanks To 34 Point Win Over The Orange Team

[chaosball32]

Absolutely brilliant
Bolton is worth every penny, what a joy we've got him

I thought it was a bit ridiculous the flak he got after the Saints game. Whole team was embarrassing that night but he got singled out.

Besides that game he’s been arguably our best player this season. Bolton and Murphy Reid, you’d do that trade 100 times over.

 

[Fat Nyfe]

Walyalup have some of our best wins the past 3 years. Can we stay Walyalup please

 

[Tonga Bob]

Get NOD in soon and drop Banfield

Don't do me dirty like this!

 

[dexter_]

5 and 5 with a percentage of 100.1

with 4 of our next 5 at home against bottom 8 teams

 

[dropbear101]

will worner become a more winning intercept marker than luke ryan.

also ras went alright

 

[FreoMonocle]

Inaccuracy sucks, should've won by 60+, but we'll take it. Crazy considering Treacy was quiet.

kayo comment was interesting, suggesting that Treacy was stopping rebound from our long bombs to i50

 

[Feathercap]

Midfield far more balanced with the extra mid and Ras really built into it. Some great head over the ball moments from him. Will
be gutted if he goes at year’s end as we are desperate for that bigger body.

 

[Serongnthnks4allthefish]

Voss brings a lot as a second ruck.

That's the key I reckon, he's been a bull and almost Jackson like with his mobility.

 

[Purpletown]

Credit where credit is due, that was a good solid effort to get an important win away from home.

Jackson and Bolton had top games. Simpson looks to be the real deal as a developing half back distributer.

Hopefully we can cash in on this win by following up with a win against Port next week.

Well done today boys.

Great performance other than goal kicking. Now JL has to tell them the way we moved the ball has to be the bare minimum. Not going back to the slow bullshit.

Cooper has to stay in. He is Young-lite in terms of his disposal and decision making which is something we have needed badly.

I was very wrong on Worner. He has come on really well and showing something I didn't think he had in him.

Ras was great and needs the run of games. His decision making can be a bit iffy but that will come with experience.

When Walker is fit again JL is going to have a tough decision on his hands as to who to drop because Simpson needs to stay in and neither Worner or Wagner deserve to be dropped.

Freddy had his once in every 2 months good game and he was still useless for most of it. Although playing him out of the square like we seemed to do in the first half might be something to trial more going forward.

The defenders deserve a shoutout for barely giving Hogan and Cadman a sniff. I don't necessarily think any of them were great but as a group the were solid.

 

[chaosball32]

Amazing what happens when you play with some pace on the ball, not allowing your f50 to flood so you can hit up leads, and defend your front half when the ball hits the ground.

Bolton is a superstar. Freddy and Switta - need to see that sort of application from them weekly. Very impressed with the youngsters tonight, Simpson especially, so much poise for a 4th gamer.

Skill level still questionable but if we put that effort in every week we will win most games. The question is why we can’t do that yet.

 

[David Bubb]

wasn't unbelievable by any means but how much more dangerous does Amiss look when we move the ball like that (as expected). Wagner not big numbers but so important, Ras competed so well especially late, Cooper very promising. Chappy will go under the radar but I thought he was very good too

Also do you think we have Kelly underwood the most? It is truly criminal that she is a commentator. Old players get somewhat of a pass because they are old players. But if you are a professional pundit you NEED to be good at speaking. I mean that’s just non negotiable. The amount of awkward stumbles, player misnames, lame attempts at banter. I once again had to watch on mute.

Give us some interesting stats, some anecdotes, player insights. ANYTHING

 

[Tonga Bob]

We won all four quarters. Huh.

 

[Cobbler]

Forward entries and intent was a gazillion times better. Didn’t notice as many pack situations.

Bolton is a star and I don’t think he’s even hit his straps yet.

 

[neishah]

I loved the game and was so excited for our win which I did not expect. But as a supporter since 1994, and so many let downs, I cannot get excited about the following games until after the fact.

 

[kingswood71]

Pleasing win and pleasing to see some run in our game.
Raz worked into it well.
Simpson gives us some great run out of defense.
Worner does a power of good work.
Thought Cox and AP both did well in nullifying their opponents.

 

[gaskin]

Also do you think we have Kelly underwood the most?

She has a timeslot each week. IIRC it is Saturday arvo and the early Sunday game. She commentates more since 7 and Fox have their own commentary team for each game.

she is atrocious. Maybe we should all send our complaints to AFL or Fox Footy whatever..

 

[Freofalcon]

Am I allowed to say that I liked the effort this week?

What did you think??

Effort
Execution

 

[stax on the mull]

Some promising signs from a couple of youngsters.

Ras started to do those things he does in the WAFL. Got involved at the contest and won a bit of his own ball towards the end (and I think he was matching Tom Green

for a while) and getting into those little pockets of space to receive.

Simpson just about the best ball user out of defence in the first half and most of our scoring opportunities were coming off defending GWS with the ball and making them turn it over. Just we didn't finish in front of goal.

Also thought Switkowski was a good contributor chasing and was evasive and creative when he got around the contests - especially after being crashed into in the first marking contest of the game.

 

[AFL Nut]

Scared to say it but Cornes is right. Jackson can play against the big boys now. Voss brings a lot as a second ruck.

Fredrick was great. Need to see that more regularly. Was a lot more involved in contests.

Shai Bolton is worth everything we paid for him.

Cox and Pearce kept Hogan and Cadman to 1 each.

Why can we not play like this every week...

Thought Treacy on Taylor played a great team game, he had limited possesions but made him accountble with every contest and he had no influence.

 

[pavstar]

A great game. Felt the balance was right bringing in the extra mid for Darcy.

Huge games from Bolton and Jackson.

Sorry but I'm not playing Darcy unless Jackson is injured at this point.

Thanks Sean for your service but Big Maxie needs ya at Melbourne next year…
