O'Brien getting beaten by the strong Aaron Francis

O'Brien has the Xavier Ellis gene by his own admission. Hopefully they can find a way to get some added strength onto his frame.

He has a fantastic leap, but just can't hold his marks

Not good enough

 

[Pessimistic]

TOB is 193cms not 195cms or taller per my post.

Makes no difference to the intent of my post, nor yours

Best players for Box Hill today ?

Best players for Box Hill today ?

Miles was very good. Langers was OK but my own expectation is he should be rampant and he wasn't. The surprise packet was Surman. Looked very comfortable in the ruck and up forward.

Congrats to the lad. People speak highly of him, and he is just the sort we will need.

Miles and kiwi very good. Webster only played abit over a quarter before sitting out the rest of the game. Willsmore struggled with a leg injury and probably shouldn't of played. Langers was solid without being outstanding. TOB kicked 3 i think and as soon as he starts holding his marks his game will certainly improve. Lovell and hardwick tried hard all day. Boxhill continue to bomb to contests instead of trusting their leg and hitting up a team mate. Cracking day for footy but didn't get the chocolates.

Damn, disappointing result, very un-Hawk like to lose by three points Still, sounds like an improvement over last week.

 

[Hawks1994]

Disappointing result, considering it sounded like we were in front for most of the day.

Good to hear people saying Miles played well again. Has been very consistent this year and is coming along nicely

I wouldn't have expected a massive game from Langers. A punctured lung is a fairly serious issue and I did surprise me that he returned to footy relatively quickly. Will take a game or two to get back into the swing of things

Webster only played a quarter, in fairness he looked pretty good.

Switkowski is a little ripper.

Agree on Switkowski. I asked about him a few weeks back after playing a couple of nice games. He just does the right things

 

[HawksILove]

Did Webster got injured again to play quarter of a game

 

[stemline]

How did Hartung go?

It must have been a sensational quarter by Webster. Imagine if he had played a full game.
