Great stuff Fullarton
Good play Lewy

 

[royboys4eva]

Well Fullarton will be in the side sooner rather than later.

 

[M Malice]

Bloody hell wow wee Tom Fullarton.

 

[martinson]

Dodongo still baffled people are impatient with McStay. He will develop like Hawkins. Slowly. Already shown improvements this year. He is the future.

Dodongo states again with all the development put into him, if we ditch him, he is going to make us look silly at a Victorian club. Patience is required with McStay. If he doesn't hit his straps in 2021 then we ditch him

I tend to agree ,there's an answer to McStay , maybe it's patience.

But that doesn't mean he can't be dropped if he's not performing

 

[Dodongo]

Dodongo is shocked at Cutler compared to last week. Something happened this week. Must have got called into Fagan's office and torn to shreds. He should be back next week

 

[davemc_lions]

Is it worth with McStay give him 2-3 weeks in the twos he seems a confidence guy and seems down.

 

[royboys4eva]

Seen enough from Lewy Taylor this 3rd qtr alone to get him back into the side for the Suns.

Mcstay down back and Fullarton up forward is something I can get behind against the Suns.

 

[martinson]

Ballenden has improved a heap this year . Developing all round skills.

Not sure he is quite ready though ,I think Eagles offers more just for the rest of this year

85 odd games 100 by seasons end still not showing the required effort and his improvement ain’t much

Not convinced on Fullarton as a 2019 senior player.

But give him another year or so and he could be a serious prospect

Do you honestly think that if the coaches thought he wasn't putting in enough effort that he'd still be in the team?

And given he hasn't been dropped perhaps that shows that effort isn't a major issue.

Think with McStay I think he really tries just gets in the wrong spots more then Hipwood does. Hence maybe a few weeks in the twos help
Not sure we want to send him to backline again I think that hurt development.

 

[Tom14]

Can we leave the McStay chat to literally every other thread?

 

[Dylan12]

Fullarton wowee

Was a fair grab in the wet.

Last nights efforts were good?Or last week?He has a big frame which he needs to use.Against West Coast he used it without taking grabs and did the team thing.He can do it just not often enough and butchers opportunities when he gets them

 

[bungalow_bill]

It's nice to be able to develop our kids in the NEAFL rather than rushing them into the 1's

Agree . He just looks half casual . But I'd like to see more confidence and a better routine when he gets scoring opportunities . Also goes missing at times.

I always preferred him down back tbh , looks nervous playing forward

 

[Mayestro]

Joyce stepping up this quarter.

 

[marooned]

Score check please?

 

[Dylan12]

Also great to hear that Chris Fagan and coaching staff and most of the seniors are there supporting the NEAFL guys.

Would be disappointing if they weren't given the reserves are always at the seniors game, schedules permitting.

You'd think Coach Fagan and his assistants would always be at the Reserves when their schedules also permit.

I'm not saying he's in great form but you said he wasn't putting in the required effort. Surely the coaches would be the best judge of this and if it was the case then he wouldn't be in the team. So if he keeps getting selected I think it's safe to assume that his effort is at least at a satisfactory level.

 

[Tom14]

Score check please?

3 anti McStay posts for each 1 defending him.

Oh you mean the NEAFL score? 81-31

 

[davemc_lions]

81-31 "edit goal Dawson" been raining since halftime. I think Aspley been not bad since halfway through the 2nd

 

[Comeback Lions]

Lions 81 Aspley 31
