Yep, I'd rather see kids getting experience and getting beaten by 10 goals than watching Bonner, Jones, Ross, Cordy and Butler getting beaten by 10 goals. Byrnes too, I've seen enough of him
So one good performance out of the first six games. Definitely not making finals this year. Might as well pump games into the kids. Let's have a look at Keeler and Ari
Gotta say I'm no big fan of Cordy but he has started the year very well. Has been rock solid at FB and keeping Howard out of the team right now. Looks like he is locked into our defensive structure, using the ball well and is rarely beaten in the air.
Watch him concede 6 goals now....
Garcia with 11 disposals (7 contested) and 6 tackles from 38% game time is wild. Put himself at the head of the pack of the newbies, and that includes Pou.
Shout out to Ro with a set of stats that we may not ever see again. 28 disposals (18 contested), 7 marks, 16 clearances (9 centre...
The rule was introduced to stop players from sliding in with the knees and hitting player who was already first to the ball. Byrnes got there first and committed. The other guy was second, spectated and got rewarded
* me that's two blatant frees in our 50 missed. First the throw then they spin to evade a tackle, get tackled and drop it. The roar of the 38 GWS fans has the umpires spooked
Stats indicate that we're being beaten with pressure and ball use. Possessions, contested possessions, contested marks are all fine but we're being smashed in inside 50s, tackles inside 50 and clangers. Dunno how to fix that at half time
I'd rather we move Sharman (a rare St Kilda forward who can kick straight) is moved into the forward line and Hammer subbed. He did seem to dislocate his shoulder in that quarter
