Even im confident we'll bank 8pts and % against them this year

Yeah it was only a praccy, but 2 goals v Geelong at home isn’t the worst outcome.

The worst outcome is injured Ridley. No rids no dons

All in all I thought the signs were really positive. I thought a lot of the guys were actually comfortable with frontal pressure and used it to draw the man to hit team mates in space. Definitely an improvement on previous skittishness. I thought Parish's kicking was sharp and was proud he took defensive side of the stoppage on multiple occasions and held position. Unfortunately until we get more out of KPF and small forwards, having a functional midfield and defense isn't going to get us very far.

Our physical size is really starting to look like an AFL team now.

Worried about Wright. With the exception of two games, he's been absolutely missing since returning from injury. I think he's currently not in our best side.

Goldy has been the only positive I've seen in the two games thus far.

Reid?

So glad he is looking ready.

Must not have been watching too closely then
Martin tick
Reid tick
Durham midfielder tick
Parish going to another level tick
Gresham tick

Gresh has been awesome.
Exactly what we needed.

Let me tell you about a guy named Ty Zantuck...

It’s bad and I’ve seen plenty of howlers but someone trying to banana from a slight angle at that distance is unforgivable lol

He's been playing long enough to know better, too. Requires a 'please explain.' He copped plenty of stick on social media about it after Fox posted it.

I'm only half way way through the replay, but Guelfi really is just depth. Parish looks really, really good.

 

[Cold Sober]

Reid?

So glad he is looking ready.

should've said ' the biggest positive '. Agree Martin, Gresham and Reid.

 

[Nicholas61]

Parish looks really, really good.

Have been a critic but big improvements since Scott on board - last year tackling efforts were better and now the work put into his kicking. Have often felt Darcy would have ironed out his deficiencies a long time ago at a more professional outfit.

Watching the replay and they interviewed the coaches at the start... apparently Brad and Chris arrived at the game in the same car?

 

[supportyourteam]

Brad wasn't getting a ride home if Essendon won. Explains the fade out

Goldy was immense especially in the first half

DP3 and Zerrett were great. Gresh was a class above all other small forwards.

Buckets McKay did well. Reidy stood tall and used it well when needed.

Duurs was very good. Just always under pressure or had no one to kick to when he had the ball.

Guelf. Cox. Perks. Lav all pretty shocking.

Can't play Hepp or J.Kelly.

Would play Goldy round 1 until Drapes is 100%. Would play Shiel if 100% as Zach and Martin might need to fill Riddler's spot

Okay, seen the full match now. Really liking our improved tackling.

That's a bit extreme, I reckon. Lav was s**t, but Guelf did okay as did Perkins, and I thoughts Cox was actually decent.

You’re picking shiel r1 after no match play this pre season?
He needs 2-3 weeks in the vfl

No one comment unless theyre inide the 4 walls

If hes fit and can get some minor match play this weekend for even a half then yeh i would have to strongly consider it

but a huge amount of variable that none of us are privvy too

Its been done plenty of times before though
