Review Round 21, 2022: Box Hill Hawks v Geelong, 13 August 2022, 2.05pm @ BHCO

[Bardo State]

Saunders looking much better than the start of the year. Has his confidence up. Needs another year at least

Yep. I've taken some convincing but his consistency is way improved.

 

[Bardo State]

Second quarter started off dominantly for Box Hill before a chaotic wind drove the game to a scrap that favoured Geelong.

Max Lynch and Dan Howe did a heap of good work through stoppages. Saunders stayed involved, as he now tends to do. Although I'm sure he'd want to tidy up his execution. Mascitti was a steadying hand and boot behind the ball. Always love watching him.

Probably signing off now. Hopefully Ramsden explodes while I'm not looking. A half of glimpses for him.

 

[MJA33]

Yep. I've taken some convincing but his consistency is way improved.

Agree he was way off it in the first half of year so I’m impressed and want to see more .

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Geelong player just kicked a box hill player in the head and got the free for contact below the knees.
Player is not in a good spot, couldn't move his legs

 

[lethalselbow]

Magnificent run down the boundary line by Saunders. Created a goal for Max Lynch.

 

[Titch3Votes0MooreAA]

What a great goal from Lynch. Saunders, with the run on the wing. He puts it just over Lynch's head and allows Lynch to run and kick the banana.

 

[Lotus]

Really liking Max Ramsden's game. His marking and kicking is really good.

 

[Mitchell Madness]

Really liking Max Ramsden's game. His marking and kicking is really good.

And has outmatched ratagalea a few times too

 

[VandoHawk]

Rama is really showing all the signs you want from your beanpole first year ruck. Flashes of being a great contested mark, good kicking, second efforts, mobility and most importantly able to impact when forward.

 

[MJA33]

Really liking Max Ramsden's game. His marking and kicking is really good.

Has got so much potential and upside. So exciting another Mid Season gem.

 

[Alite]

The Commentators have been good.

 

[The_Axeman]

Saunders has got what we need. Certainty to get a new contract, IMO.

Not sure about that
He's a class above vfl, but I feel he's not afl standard either.
No shame in that though

His improvement has been rapid once he got some continuity. He is getting better each game.

 

[Lotus]

Has got so much potential and upside. So exciting another Mid Season gem.

Yes, his first few games I was so scared everytime he's in a contest with much bigger opponent. But now I'm looking forward for his contested mark .

 

[Walshawk]

Final score?

 

[KermitJagger]

I have no idea how there's no list spot in the AFL for a guy who can find the goals as consistently as Fergus Greene

Comfortable win. BH looked better organised and had some decent ball transition. Fergus Greene

kicked 5 - certainly knows how to find them and players look for him.

Hawthorn listed players:
Lynch - rucked well and was handy around the ground - must be close to a call-up.
Hartigan - solid
Butler - showed a few flashes and kicked an early goal but not a lot of impact.
Long - just OK - mostly played on the wing and was out of the play a fair bit.
Howe - good game - got plenty of the ball and used it effectively
Saunders - plenty of pace and got into the action - very promising.
Callow - struggled
Ramsden - just 9 touches this week - out-bodied when relieving in the ruck but was mobile on the forward line and kicked a goal.

Bewildering

 

[Walshawk]

Finals locked in. Will be interested to see which Hawthorn players suit up.

 

[stemline]

Hope Charlie Beasley is ok. Looked nasty.

 

[AlwaysHawks15]

Not much depth outside Geelong's AFL team by what I saw today. Certainly nowhere near Melbourne and Casey for eg. Probably points to a few key injuries bringing them back to the field if it occurs.

 

[WWSD]

Next week Box Hill play Sydney at Box Hill City Oval on Saturday 12.35pm in what looks like a battle for 4th spot on the ladder and a double chance. It will be the first time ever these two teams have played each other.

4. Sydney, 11 wins - 5 losses (128.2%)
5. Box Hill, 11 wins - 6 losses (124%)

Shame he had a really quiet game.
