Really thought we would struggle with so many players out and just about a full #lolnorf reserves side

Would love to know how the Ruck contest went between Soldo v Preuss
All we need you to say is that the GWS game is a danger game , so we can win by 85points.
 
Great to hear that Naish is stringing some games together. I’m loving his progress.

Still looks small compared to others, another preseason will do him wonders.

Thanks Sterge and guruisatiger for all the updates as it makes it easy for us to see what’s going on . The audio I gave up on so I decided to go on the punt and caught up here for your updates.
Stengle way overdue with that game and it appears all the top ups killed it?
Is Preuss still as s**t as I thought he was two years ago??
All good ti hopes you won on the punt preust is ok just ok.

OUR BEST WIN SO FAR THIS YEAR

with so many good players out today, i thought we might struggle to see thid one through, why i doubted the boys in yellow and black ill never know
The fitst 10 minutes the lol roos jumped us but could not put the score on the scoreboard, they should have been 3 -4 goals up half way thru the 1st, a combination of bad skills by them and good coverage in defense by us, meant we were well in it,
The last 10 minutes we settled and got the game back on our level
Very scrappy not much to talk about in the 1st quarter, noah and naishy were good in defense, as were credlin, coffield and menadue, everywhere else it was a close dour struggle

We upped the ante in the second kicking 3 goals to 1,
Again we were very sound defensively, but our offence was sharper and we looked so much more dangerous on our way to goal.
Was very confident at half time we would run over the top of the roos
You could judt see it happening
14-5 to 4 -1 , a 68 point demolition in the second half
The reserves play almost identical to the 1sts,, ware them out out early with hard tough defensive style, then when the players tire
BANG we go WOOSHKA, and pile on the goals , with the most amazing run on play hanball handball handball, till someone either has a clear shot at goal or can set a team mate up with a set shot at goal... wejust keep the ball moving forward NO MATTER WHAT, every player does it its amazing to watch live the opposition have NFI how to stop it, wave after wave after wave, no selfishness, every player on the same page, no egos no big heads,
And the love and joy when a team mate does the right thing is so evident and celebrated, , and if a team mate goes against the plan, no over the top theatrics , just a stern reminder of what is required , , we dont drop our heads ,, and we dont abuse our team mates, unlike the roos who were infighting all day,, , if you get a chance to watch the reserves play this year, take it ..its so much fun watching the reserves play, seeing the young talent coming thru, i guarantee you will walk away smiling

NAISH- definitely his best game this year was very busy in the 1st quarter
And provided great run off the half back line, his kicking is getting
Better with each week , and so is his confidence to take the game
On with several long runs and bounces, his courage and his physicality have improved dramatically. ..........

BALTA- Was excellent today played down back, and was very very good,
His pace and leap means he is never out of the contest, he has great voice out in backline marshalling the troops, and screaming out directions and encouragement rance jnr in the making and a real swingman if ive ever seen one
WOMBAT, - explosive, exciting, enthralling, endearing, does everything and more, 6 goals set up a couple of others,, to good for this level, his only one real weekness is he doesn't have real speed, , apart from that he is ELITE
MENADUE- NATURAL HBF, great hands in the marking contest, brave great kicking skills, and seems to be getting real consistent at this level,just needs to take his chances when he gets promoted,
Soldo- scratchy but ok his last quarter was very good

Ccj and miller both ok and seem to get better with each week
Any other questions or player ratings please ask away

Pretty amazing what the 2017 draft crop are serving up in their first season. Naish has taken time to find his feet but sounds as though he is really starting to grow in confidence and take the game on.
Balta, Miller and CCJ tracking beautifully for talls

How were Townsend, Baker and McIntosh today?
Towny good, got smashed in the 2nd q, almost carried off
Also got hit in the 3rd, ******* tough bugger, took some nice marks
Kicked a couple looked good
Kmac struggle early was better in 2nd half seems lost at this level
Baker was travelling emergency

Guru, what do you think of Shaun Mannagh , star youngster from Riverina will get a decent run at it now with injuries to listed players
Natural goal kicker, natural footballer smart, hates losing,
Really hope he wood and silvester get on a afl list next year,

So who mainly played midfield for us on the day? It appears it was mainly top ups which is astonishing in itself if true.
Wood, towny, silvester, kmac,Stengle
Wood was awesome , first time for a while ive stood on the boundary
His voice and directions were excellent a fantastic leader,
Just wonder if he is a sneaky chance to be on our afl list next year,
As a rookie, ( with the young kid from coburg you like)
Silvester and mannagh are bloody good footballers as well
