[EnolaGay]

Are we a good chance in this one? Our side looks pretty solid.

 

[Wahooti Fandango]

So HEA is all fine after last week? Good!

 

[eth-dog]

Are we a good chance in this one? Our side looks pretty solid.

They're pretty good. We'll probably lose.

 

[eth-dog]

Goals to Tsatas and Gresham so far. 12-3. Not sure how long I can watch though

 

[eth-dog]

Transition defence has been shizen. Luckily they're kicking horribly

 

[Yoda_]

They're pretty good. We'll probably lose.

just said they had 7 listed players today (giants)

should get the job done with how much experience this VFL side has

 

[Atavistic]

Nice kick by Visentini to find Jones. Pity Jones immediately turned it over.

 

[eth-dog]

If Tsatas made that tackling effort that Setterfield just did we'd hear everyone talk about how soft he is.

 

[eth-dog]

2 points down at HT. Frustrating.

 

[ghostdog]

Just before HT

Tsatas 17 disposals, 6 contested, 0 tackles

Jones 1 goal, 11 disposals at 36%

 

[ant555]

If Tsatas made that tackling effort that Setterfield just did we'd hear everyone talk about how soft he is.

Well that would depend on how often it happens.

 

[Duckworth]

Edwards mark!!

 

[Duckworth]

McMahon off injurred.

 

[brutus76]

McMahon helped off with a leg injury - didn't look great TBH

 

[brutus76]

This is how you do it - lower the eyes - first option

 

[brutus76]

McMahon in crutches and ice and tape on his ankle - URGHHHHHHHH

Been a great quarter otherwise

 

[brutus76]

3QT - a 7 goals to 0 quarter sees us up 87-46

NOTE we have 12-13 AFL listed players - GWS decimated by injury only have about 6

Tsatas 24
Setterfield 19
Jones 18 and 2.2
Gerryn 20 and 11 marks
Binns 23 IMO BOG so far and deserves a spot on a list next year - smart decision maker and FOOTY IQ

 

[Atavistic]

Good work from Tsatas there to find Huss.

 

[brutus76]

Guelfi WTF you punch there boi!!!!!!!!!!

 

[brutus76]

Gerryn just winded badly from that contest - he'll be ok - he's tough

 

[brutus76]

another nice hang from Edwards!

 

[jannissary]

reckon edwards should be a 1:1 replacement for langford.

 

[Duckworth]

There is a massive grassy knoll in the background. It looks like a sniper's paradise, just have to allow for the wind.

 

[Duckworth]

Gresham up to 4 goals.
