2nds Lions Reserves 2011

[soupy66]

Am I the only one who didn't realise the 3.20 start indicated this was the warm up game for Collingwood v Suns? Doh! Just had to pay $26 for standing room ticket as seating allocation is exhausted. I haven't seen anything on the web site.

Am going to the Pies v Suns game this weekend, although i do plan on watching the seniors play on TV before heading to the game.

 

[soupy66]

That's even worse....can't watch seniors live then either.....whoever liaises games (if anyone does) they do a lousy job.

Played on that garbage ground at Sherwood, a bit of rain and it turns to a game of pigs in mud.

Standing room there is awesome.

I have a seat in the stand and prefer it 100 times over.

Try and stand near the interchange benches, seriously you are about 10 metres from the max. Great view!!

GO RESSIES, but I will be flying down south for this one!!

Charmo! Drummo! Barto! Polo!

At this rate we'll have just about a full fit list just in time for the off-season!

Conrad any chance for a rookie spot next year ya reckon Rip, or any of the other top-ups for that matter?

This will be interesting to see how he goes =) Best of luck big fella.

Hard to know where these top-up kids are ranked in the grand scheme of things. It was Conrad's first game back with us last week after an arm or shoulder injury back in April. Did everything right. Showed great ability to stay cool and spot up the best option out of some heavy traffic.

Alex Kitching's another who's done very well all season. A bit of a tough nut and manages to get on to a fair bit of loose ball in the front half.

The other smoky is Scott Clarke who pinch-hit for us in the ruck (a bit short for that role in the AFL, but can jump and is competitive and mobile), and later almost single-handedly got us back in the game against the Swans from CHF before popping (I think it was) a collarbone. Hasn't played since.

Great news. I'm guessing O'Brien must be the traveling emergency.

 

[mickeyblueeyes37]

C Carseldine, is he related to the Cricket player for the Bulls ?

 

[GabbaGirl]

Charmo!! great to see the big fella back on the field

 

[MSB ROYS]

I'll be at the ressies tomorrow!

 

[Hollow Knight]

Will tweet.

See that you do! Goal by goal!

Poor bugger.

 

[jackess]

Now Bartlett has hobbled off. How could this day get any worse?

 

[Haggis McHaggis]

Seems the umps have a serious chubby for us at both levels today.

 

[Cousin Jed]

Reports on Twitter that Charmo has gone off injured.

Hope he'll get back for his farewell game though

 

[Hollow Knight]

Bartlett back on.

 

[Bucking Beads]

Please don't let Bartlett be seriously injured

 

[LION UP]

Bartlett ok and Charmo was only playing a half and word is he isn't injured.

One thing I find a little frustrating around the ressies is a delay in hearing about what actually happened. Is anyone aware of a more 'real time' way of getting information about the twos? It would be great to get more timely official reports/communication about the reserves on match days.

This is not a vent, I do think the club is doing much better this year on communicating, just a suggestion. Would be great to even see a game on the TV from time to time, although I doubt that living in Vic...
