2nds 2025 VFL thread

Some horrendous disposal by us, Luke Lloyd nearly missed his boot altogether.

ZZ has a good leap on him in the ruck.

Bit surprised at the turnout here given its a working day. Don't think I've seen the car park so full for a VFL game. Quite a few Bomber fans here judging by the applause for their goals

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

The mark by McFadyen on the far defensive flank earlier was impressive, as was that goal.

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Good quarter, working our way back into the game

The more I hear about ZZ in the ruck the more I wonder if he could be an answer to our forward ruck issue. His raw athletic ability seem viable for the role. And as the third string forward his forward craft can start less developed and be developed. To be honest I dont think Gardiner has much forward craft (he has many other attributes) so it wouldnt be the worst thing to explore

Good to see McFadyen and Arnold sticking it up the bombers for not selecting them in the MSD.

Dev killing it, being shown he’s not far off senior selection seems to have given him confidence, disposal generally good.

Note to selectors - can we see ZZ resting forward to see if he has more forward craft than Gardiner?

My boy Ty having a day off. Might need another preseason before we see him in the seniors.

I'd take McFadyen over Lloyd

Just has the x factor. Although his brother did as well and never really looked like an option at senior level

Connors ACL came at the worst possible time.

So disapointing because he was a Fyfe clone according to Knightmare. Or was that Allison?

I thought Lloyd was solid at half back the last two weeks. Only been passable today imo. Perhaps he could develop into a reason kpd back up.

Ps really like McFayden

I think he'd have gotten senior games if he didn't get injured then just got passed by other players when he was back. Tough gig is footy when you're not a top 15 talent.

Knightmare probably thinks Brisbane just don't develop their talent!!

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Unbelievable goal in these conditions

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Good game. Big quarter coming up

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

I hope Mr Ripper got a shot of that almost mark by ZZ Tap

 

[knaf]

Interesting Gallop into the ruck and more involved. ZZ forward, didn’t see a lot of it but did attempt a contender for mark of the year

 

[twhowler]

That McLachlan almost goal was what i would like to see in the seniors very occasionally - play on from fullback, maximum metreage straight up the guts!

 

[Nathan Barley]

Shocking defence

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Some distracted defending by Arnold at half forward cost us the lead there

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Hell of a mark and goal to the Zeds

 

[M Malice]

Great mark in the F50 by ZZ... and goal.

 

[twhowler]

Hell of a mark and goal to the Zeds

He looks likely doesn't he! i have just turned on the coverage, has he played well overall?

 

[BrainOfMorbius]

Great second half from Will Mc

 

[M Malice]

Will McLachlan 5 2nd half goals.

 

[MSB ROYS]

Excellent last 10 minutes.

Yeah I like him. I was a bit underwhelmed by him last year but his development this season is pleasing
