Thank **** for that Scott goal, completely dominating play for no reward

 

[Testekill]

We really don't have a tall option up forward to occupy Phillips. Poulter plays like a psuedo tall and Khamis is third tall sized but neither are going to keep him honest.

I forgot to make Treloar captain of my vfl SuperCoach team

Yes, Croft would be useful right now!

Inside 50s now 21-2.
Score is 21-1!

EDIT: As I post, Carlton get a rare i50 and a goal. That is soooo Bulldogs.

 

[Marsy]

Treloar has most tackles on the ground

Would have been good to have Cameron Owens out there just because it's hard to ignore a 202cm player even if he's not great.

Great double up effort by Buku

 

[Testekill]

Ooof, shocking shank by Khamis after a nice lead

 

[Fossie 32]

Nice work Buku apart from the kick missing

Carlton well on top in their d50. We're winning everywhere else. Pressure is excellent.

 

[Testekill]

Qtr time, up by 15 points. Really should be more like 30 up but we've just been shocking going inside 50 and a number of shanks in front of goal.

 

[Mofra]

Not sure what ads everyone else is getting but I really want a sausage in bread right now

I can see why they aren't picking Khamis. His marking and (usually) his kicking are very good. But he does not seem interested in working to defend when we don't have possession. Just sags off his opponent when Carlton are rebounding and looking for easy exits from short kicks.

That's unacceptable.

 

[puppey]

Coffield looking good so far, playing a bit higher up the ground. The usual suspects playing well at this level too, though Poulter and Khamis have both squandered some easy-ish opportunities. Ads playing well, will be interesting to see what kind of managed minutes he's on later in the match

 

[House_of_Dahl]

No audio?

Edit - back now

 

[Testekill]

Fantasia just poleaxed himself on Crofts who literally didn't even do anything.

Spot on. He is a good VFL player with the slower pace but not to good for the VFL. A good depth player that needs to improve his defensive intensity

 

[Mofra]

Poulter in the F50 and Poulter outside the F50 are two different players.

Keep him away from the goalsquare and play him between the arcs please.

 

[Unorth]

Treloar does not look tentative at all, good to see.

 

[Lee]

Jones… why you playing on there

 

[Mofra]

Gardner defending well this quarter. Just don't look whenever he has to kick it n

 

[lachy]

You can see why Jones is not getting into the AFL team

 

[DognBones]

We are very scrappy in this game. Lots of poor handballs and mis-kicks.

 

[dogwatch]

Fumbles and turnovers from both sides. Umpire decides to put everyone out of our misery with a charity free directly in front. They should have had a similar one 5 minutes ago so it's swings and roundabouts I suppose.
