NEW: Jack Maruff, 19, 183cm, 75kg, Echuca

The lads will have fun coming up with a nickname for young Jack

LOB getting plenty of footy but missing targets consistently. His one wood has totally deserted him.

Loving Corey Durdin playing in the middle.

TBH I have never ever seen it at a consistent level with LOB, think his 1 wood is more like a 3 metal or a myth…..

Yep I love this as well. We should definitely be adding/developing this element of his game. Can become a nice rotation for us through the middle imo

In contrast to LOB, Binns kicking has been excellent today.

 

[Coona Blues]

Binns’ kicking seems to be getting more consistent. For mine was his only knock and why I was a little surprised we drafted him. If he continues with this trajectory, becomes a “steal”.

 

[The Blue Weirdo]

Suggests we won't have a late out in the AFL side. We normally always hold out 2. One as sub and 1 as an emergency.

Is Honey playing?

 

[Arr0w]

Akuei looks really poor out there

 

[marcmurphy3]

Is Durdin injured? Haven't seen him since the start of the qtr?

 

[marcmurphy3]

Is Honey playing?

No. He's already in for Martin

 

[Coona Blues]

Good question, did disappear after early impact..

 

[David Sylvian]

Bye rust. Dominated the quarter, appalling finishing, great pressure.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Akuei looks really poor out there

Lacks intensity

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Missed a few 3/4 more easy goal opportunities…

 

[marcmurphy3]

Good question, did disappear after early impact..

Literally. As in did not appear on screen for the rest of the quarter.

 

[marcmurphy3]

Still no C Durdin. Fair to say something must have happened

 

[Coona Blues]

O’Keeffe is such a superb set shot goal kicker. He is a better ruck than forward, but has enough forward nous and dead eye conversion to make him versatile enough to “blood” as a forward/ruck.

It’s good to be able to afford Lemmey, O’Keefe and Binns the time to develop in the reserves.
The big guys are usually a slower burn but Binns sounds like he will be pressing senior selection from here on in …

 

[KnaveyBlue]

Marchbank is a delist.

 

[marcmurphy3]

Binns on his way to another BOG

Binns on his way to another BOG

Can't watch this one, but LOB's stats look impressive.
4 tackles.

New deal syndrome
