VFL 2023 - Reserves Game Day discussion Rnds 1 - 22 (Merged threads)

Cincotta is the one who looks a class above for mine ..

Cincotta can look plenty slick at this level with his burst and flat kicking, but important to remember he will have rundown pressure and less space for him and his team mates at the next level.

He's yet to show he can respond well to that without completely chopping up his composure and disposal.

He’s out there.

Oh I must have missed him

 

[Baggers]

Like the look of Akuei in defence, but he looks so uncomfortable with his set shots when forward.
His run up looks hesitant.

 

[HarryFlashman]

Young & Fish should be better than that, 4 touches between them shitting themselves then

 

[carlton_99]

Mirkov might have just hurt himself. Landed a bit awkwardly and hobbling

Lack of practice. His presence up there is markedly better than in defence.

Takes 1 mark..gets injured

You’re seeing something I’m not seeing.

Cahill surely needs to get some serious consideration for a list spot

 

[SkyhorseTamer]

Akuei..I hate to say it but he's not even VFL standard.

You haven't been watching then. Sure he got nervous and cocked a set shot up but he's showing good pressure and some nice footy smarts.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Not sure how much we can truly take away from a game against a team this depleted, but I’m just hoping it’s sustainable confidence for the likes of Fish, LOB etc.

Pace is pace at whatever level.

Fisher, Dow and Cincotta for me

Confident Binns works his way in eventually as well.

 

[carlton_99]

Mirkov looks alright injury wise

 

[Jimmae]

Dow needed to do more to break the tackle then, and handball away if he couldn't.

TBF Sydney are all shades of s**t

 

[carlton_99]

TBF Sydney are all shades of s**t

They have like 45 games of AFL experience in the team to our 600+.

 

[Mondyboy]

TBF Sydney are all shades of s**t

Oh yeah. They’re rooted. Not much will be taken from this game, other than Fish putting in an effort and Binns deserving a call up.

Ronke kicks his 2nd from a downfield free (Fisher was dumped off the ball) - we now lead 97-50

It's not consistent, but he's got the ability to unsettle the zoning defender, both in terms of providing an option, and bringing the ball to ground. Explosive off the mark too, with good awareness about how he can keep the play alive and in our favour.

 

[HarryFlashman]

As long as it’s not in our side. He looks great until he goes missing.
When he’s on - he does look the goods, doesn’t last unfortunately

Isn't that the case with a lot of young small forwards?

 

[jooce8891]

class binns

 

[Pablito]

Gets pushed off the ball constantly can't tackle either. He rarely finds the ball and is a nonentity at either end of the ground. One good tap does not equal footy smarts.

He'll be off the list sooner rather than later and that's taking my opinion of his game today out of consideration.

 

[carlton_99]

Binns! Nice running shot from 40 results in a 103-50 lead. Great goal

 

[AndyLucimitis]

Binnsy !!

 

[Mondyboy]

That was sweet from Binns on the run.
