Watched the replay a while ago and have a look at Vossy on the bench with 10 minutes to play in the last q.

Charlie had just limped off but his unbelievable intensity on what was happening out on the ground was amazing/scary.

You would think scores were level in a GF not 9 goals up and game in the bag.

Very impressive, there will be no relaxing here........ HERE,NO RELAXING!

He will not rest till holding up 17 and even then not for long I feel.

Huge turnaround by playing group since the players bonding session at curnows farms….amazing the effect of swimming naked in the dam

 

[Dumpstar]

76 tackles yesterday. 27 in the first quarter.

We had 33 against Essendon in Round 13 last season!

Regardless of opposition, that is how you win games.

Yabbies pinching on the soft spots?...... Ouch!

Play that bad again and back in there might be the story.

That’s true…

That game against * was really bad…

It also resulted in the turning point.

Most of the team struggled with that yesterday. What was going on?

I heard a few saying it was very warm inside the ground - players looked very sweaty.

Fair enough. Didn’t feel too bad to me, but I was on the top level, not ground level

I wonder what Norf supporters thought of all the ‘buddy buddy’ with Fisher after the game.

And during the game.

Is Harry McKay the best player in the competition right now?

Top 5 for sure

 

[GoBlues!]

Really think marchy should’ve returned via the vfl

Agree Esk. Understand Weitering coming straight in, but not sure why Marchy didn’t return in the VFL - first game after illness against a team with 2 games under its belt he did look underdone.

I agree. We're not only tackling more, we're tackling better. Getting turnovers and frees from our tackles. The other improvement has been our ball movement.

 

[Benaly28]

Can we take Jonathan Brown stuff elsewhere

Agree.

Guys lost me forever with some of the s*** commentary around us.

Martin Motlop Walsh all soon to be back into the side

Watch out

I know this might sound crazy but can we play both Hollands and Martin?


Owies/Motlop/Durdin/Orazio are the smalls.

Looking forward to the next time we play them.

They won’t know what hit them.

I think they’ll pick Martin if he can show some fitness.
None of those guys can take a pack mark and his pressure and ability to hold the ball in set him apart.

Yes as I believe Hollands will play more High HF/Wing/mid

 

[SurreyBlue]

I think we are a long way off knowing our best forward line combo

Charlie McKay & Martin are the pillars for me
Fogarty is impressing me for his defence alone. Can we then carry Cottrell and/or Cuningham if they don't do enough offensively? I think we struggle to kick enough easy goals against good opposition

IMO Motlop we need. Has some X factor. E.Hollands as High HF/midfielder looks good so far

I am hoping Fantasia steps us as he brings what we need. Speed and smarts. Durdin has similar traits but hasn't produced enough, yet.

Owies is a good solid player that will bob up and do his job

Moir looks extremely talented but I don't think he's ready yet

Without SOS and everyone up and running, this is our best forward line setup.
EHollands McKay Fogarty
Martin Curnow Motlop
One of Durdin or Fantasia on the bench.

Martin just did another hammy I think. Might be a little way off.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

I’m calling it - he won’t see out his contract and wouldn’t surprise me if he pulls the pin after this season.

You can see it in his eyes - he’s lost the spark.

I agree. I just don't think he's enjoying finding out he's not god's gift to coaching - its actually the players who win games. Massive ego getting punctured.

Absolute turd of a bloke.

 

[teddy-hopkins]

Kennedy had his best game so far this year around the ball - his use of body and attack on the ball was great.

Much better on ball than up forward.

Yes Kennedy seemed to spend more time in the midfield. Sent a reminder to the coaches of how good a player he is. So strong and combines really well with Cripps. I thought he was good and can get better.

 

[Keyza]

Great to have a stress free win for a change. While we weren't competing against a strong team, it was good to see an improvement in scoring, although improvement is still needed with delivery into the forward line.

While he wasn't our best player, I think Lachie Fogarty is such an important player with his forward line pressure. Loved his game today.

Percentage baby!

That is what I liked about yesterday too. It was nice to sit back and enjoy the win and not feel so stressed waiting for the siren.

 

[Keyza]

The free kick count is pretty funny. It didn’t feel like we got a heap that weren’t there.

There were a couple of iffy ones but the bulk of them were there. I think people fail to remember that North got their first 3 goals from free kicks.

 

[Keyza]

Talk today was Walsh is going well and most likely for Crows game in 2 weeks after a training block

Cheers. He is sitting on 99 games so it would be good to play his 100th game at home.
