Good things coming from the pre-season to date, including tonight so far.

Bock - really looking the part at CHF

Griffin - performed okay against Cox that quarter, carrying on his startling progress from SANFL B grade to AFL this year.

Douglas - every bit as good as I thought he would be when we recruited him. Quality mid-fielder in the making

van Berlo - relatively quiet in the pre-season before tonight but has stepped up to the plate and showed his class against quality opposition in West Coast.

Knights the ball magnet - a bit quieter tonight and one wonders just how much time he has actually spent on the ground. In the top 10 in the AFL last year for least minutes per disposal last year and has brought his own footy in the first two games.

Reilly - definitely stepped up a cog this year in all 3 pre-season games and having a good one again tonight.

Good signs, ladies and gentlemen, good signs. :) :thumbsu:

Kerr kicks a goal over the shoulder

ADE 8.6 54
WC 5.7 37

Kerr's 5th touch for the quarter, 23 for the match. Eagles stoppage work outstanding, better than Crows for the game according to the commentators.

Bernie Vince just nailed our 8th goal shortly after the break.
Can any of you guys tell me more about Bernie - Has he muscled up from last year ? Does he look like he'll be part of the rotations this year or will he perhaps have to bide his time until he gets a gig ?

Shirley just kicked another from 65 out - shepherded it through by Bock. Started with a nice centre tap from Griffin. :thumbsu:

West Coast have had a lot of the ball up forward this quarter but have murdered a lot of their forward 50 entries - thank goodness.
