Le cas game mimiced the entire forward line. Rusty and didnt really gel. No JK and Ryan was given a goal square role so Leca was pushed uo the ground.
Pretty hard to assess on that game.

Our entries were shocking and bombed in. When you have two 191cm talls, bombing in won't work. Both darling and murky will suit a more direct style of play.

I think we need to look at DV as a first year player. He's about six weeks off of being too young for his draft year and he missed most of last year with injury. Like I said before he looked like he was lacking confidence. I'd be happy to keep him in the side until he gets it.
Yeah IDK, I just thought that when Simmo talked about "simulating Richmond" it meant playing mostly small forwards along with JD and JK.
Probably just interpreting it wrong.
Completely agree. Emac would have torn it up yesterday if fit.

I noticed that too. He got the ball in space a couple of times and really took off. Maybe it was that ankle injury we kept hearing about....
I stated previously he was gonna win out B&F by a record margin. Now im gonna up it and say his gonna bring home Charlie as well........
SPOT ON........

Clearly the intent wasn't there hence it's only a week. So they are essentially punishing him for clumsiness, or for not bumping with appropriate skill. It's tricky business, on one hand we love players who go hard at the ball but there does need to be some accountability in terms of how they go about it.

0 Defensive pressure from Priddis yesterday.
Just on the rucking. Vardy looked more dangerous up forward, but Lycett looked a lot better in the ruck. Will be an interesting balance once Nic Nat is up and about as we will loose too much forward defensive pressure playing all three.
McInnes isn't as good as either Lycett or Vardy, but I think he is better for our forward structure (as in gives us something to kick to) which could be valuable if Kennedy misses games...

You'll have to excuse Vishy there mate, his hatred for Hutchings was melting his brain so hard he couldnt type actual sentences that made sense..
He didn't do a lot, couple of nice things in front of me but the whole forward line looked a bit disjointed. I was commenting on people who watch footy looking for negatives to confirm their preconceived opinion.

Iv'e been tough on Duggan and Gaff for being useless and yesterday from what i saw they may be better than useless this year. I'm no Hutchings fan but when he come on yesterday something changed in our dynamic and we were back in the game.

I'm sure it's been covered but I ain't reading through, a concern I have out of this game is the expectation on Liam Ryan, I hope the club itself are realistic of what he'll bring to the side, I fear him becoming a lost player if the expectation on him in the spotlight is to only do special things and then crucified for not doing it often enough or much else.
Clear talent, one that I hope sticks to the basics with some added flair.

I think I was most pleased with the midfield effort- all of Gaff, Yeo, Shuey, Redden, Duggan, Jetta had a good hit out. A few cobwebs and should have lowered the eyes a bit more, but I think the forward line dynamic was a bit off.
Wonder if they will film the closed door one this weekend? I seem to recall in 2014 they did something similar.

Gaff was probably the most impressive for me. Looked like he was running on top of the ground, disposal was sharp, and was pretty good when he had contested possessions.
From a player sponsorship point of view... we were loosing at half time, threw Watson into the game and BAM, the whole momentum of the game changed and we won.
Watson 1, Port Adelaide nil.

Would say Gray went for being "careless". Obviously had it been "intentional" then throw the book at him and he goes for 4+.
