Game Day Pre-season 2022: GWS v Collingwood, Giants Stadium @ 12.40 pm Sunday 6 March 2022

[Giant Strides]

Early issues for Giants, handing the ball straight to Pies on multiple occasions.

But a nice passage for Kelly to get to Bobby for a good mark, and nice goal from an angle.

 

[Simmofreo]

Not quite sure on the Preuss full forward thing

Nice support from HH, then nice snap from Lloyd.

 

[Gigantic]

Cal Ward playing halfback. Interesting.

 

[Giant Strides]

Nice mark Riccardi! And goal.

 

[Simmofreo]

Tanner is going to be good this year.

Cogs racking them up

 

[Colonial]

We look good.
A step or two out due to being preseason but can see good things, especially with TFG not there.

 

[Land of the Giants]

Pretty blustery conditions. Not helping with ball movement, but we look switched on.

 

[Giant Strides]

Lloyd down due to a coathanger from Maynard. Been down about 3-4 minutes so far.

Nice snap from Taranto.

 

[Colonial]

Stone down and now so is Lloyd.

Brander coming in.

 

[Colonial]

Nice team goal.

 

[Andre the Giant]

Pruess and Hill look very sharp.

Worried about Connor Stone, that was a non contact walk off. Looked a bit grim.

 

[Hendo_21]

Like the process in which we're moving the ball just some skill errors letting us down at this point think that'll figure itself out as the game goes on and by round 1. Cogs also looking really good!

 

[Simmofreo]

Riccardi is going to love being in the same team as Hogan, Toby and HH. Keeping them all on the park at the same time will be huge

Mids Kelly, Cogs, Hopper & Green all looking good.

Ward playing off off-back a bit, done some good things, exposed in others.

Hill & Taranto looking good forward; but fears for Lloyd & Stone. (Really heavy hit on Lloyd, might need some time to recover.)

Both Preuss & Flynn doing OK (though not shading Grundy). Preuss a few nice marks in the linking chain, and a couple of nearly (dropped) marks up forward.

Whitfield's radar has been a bit off today - some massive misses kicking straight to Pies players, as well as some of his usual threaded kicks.

Keefe, Cumming, Perryman, Idun, HH all their usual games.

Bruhn's had some good passages, just need more.

 

[Giant Pete]

Overusing it by hand. As unclean as we’ve been in years. Eg. Whitfield multiple turnovers.
Bruhn should play half forward Rd 1. Clean when others aren’t.
Sneaky good - Conor Idun

 

[ClockworkOrange]

James Hird directing traffic in the Back’s line meeting at HT.

Great addition to the club.

Yeah the overusing has hurt us a couple times but would hope that irons itself out by the time we get into the meat of the season

Lloyd down due to a coathanger from Maynard. Been down about 3-4 minutes so far.

Nice snap from Taranto.

Very, very cheap head shot causing concussion by Maynard.

An interesting first up test for the Tribunal.

[Andre the Giant]

Hill looks superb, he has definitely improved. Lucky we kept him.

 

[Hendo_21]

Cogs 9 marks doing a great job again like he was last week at spreading and finding space

 

[Giant Strides]

Nice passage of play there, running out of defence and ending in a Bobby goal.

Cogs is back in form and adding heaps to our midfield game.

 

[Colonial]

Can’t get it out of the defensive 50
