Craven does some good things. Shame he's not taller or quicker

Beautiful kick for goal

Solid VFL level player. Can't see him getting extended.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Haha Schache can't outmark Prior

 

[Nunez]

Beecken is such a well rounded player. What a find.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Derksen providing a good target today

Beecken is such a well rounded player. What a find.

I think he still has more defensive lapses than you'd like. Doesn't seem to quite have the balance right between defence and attack IMO

 

[Nathan Barley]

Did Lyons just smother Smith?

 

[Nathan Barley]

Derksen didn't quite think that one through

Think he's learning the zone structure we like. Not perfect but can see his applying himself. I think it is infinitely harder to do so at VFL level given the random unforced turnovers that happen at the level.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Pretty much dominated this quarter but not got full reward

 

[Nathan Barley]

Ryan is such a massive presence. Must give defenders headaches even if he's not getting a lot of the ball

 

[MSB ROYS]

Casey just put everyone behind the ball like Melbourne.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Surely there isn't a better ruck combination at state level than Fort and Smith

 

[Nathan Barley]

Smith 3 goals, 13 disposals, 7 marks and 9 hit outs

 

[Nathan Barley]

We have 9 of the top 10 disposal getters

 

[Nathan Barley]

Great spoil torrent

 

[Nathan Barley]

Fort has dominated the ruck this quarter

 

[Mr Ripper]

It’s unsettling just how much the PA guy here sounds like Leppa.

 

[Mr Ripper]

Fort playing like Gary Dempsey Simon Madden and John Nicholls all rolled into one.

 

[BRAB]

Those stat lines from smith are looking really exciting. Glad we signed him on until the end of 2026.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Not a great start to the second half

He looks good. Would be next cab off the rank over fort you’d think

 

[Nathan Barley]

Dev has been a lot smarter trying to distribute from congestion by hand instead of breaking 3 tackles and going for a run

 

[Nathan Barley]

Down field?

Manly got decked after kicking
