[Scubaveg]

Both Bailey and Rayner took positive steps forward today.

Bailey is a jet!

It looked like the penny dropped in the fourth for Zac - looked like Zorko.

Why? Because of that one Tex free?

I tend to agree he wasn't anywhere near as good as he's been for a while today. Meanwhile Lester gonna make it very tough for Adams to get back into the side and Andrews just showing how good he is when the pressure was coming from Crows.

Being not anywhere near as good as hes been doesnt mean hes on the chopping block by any means. He wouldnt lose his spot to Adams and who else would get his role in the backline? He wasnt anywhere near as terrible as some people have claimed.

Hell, the whole side was terrible in the third.

our kicking for goal needs some work
Went Neale, Clugga, Berry, Linc and Lester.. Could off added Robbo, Bailey, Lyons, Rich and Andrews easily as well.
Though Ah Chee and CEY stepped up as did Rayner.
All round not a bad game if it was 23-10 would of been better

You assume T Berry in for Zorko next week.
Do wonder that is two players now, who came back looks early from injury. Then could not play out the game.
Could cost us for a game one day.

Archie was better still not much around the ground.. Like to try Ballenden or Skinner

Nah, we should look at someone like Cox or anyone with leg speed. Berry isnt for leg speed. Coleman could even get a shot, he was emergency last week.

Oh he's not on the chopping block. He'd be one of the first five selected each week. I just agreed with the original post that it just wasn't his best day.

Fair enough.

That didn't help but thought he looked lost on a few occasions whens the ball came in. Can never knock his effort but thought he had a mare today.

 

[iBeng]

If I had to list candidates for Zorkos spot, without knowing their form in the scratch matches...

1) Christensen
2) Cox
3) Coleman
4) Wooler
5) Corey Lyons

 

[Thedeftouch]

Another game where Neale dominates the second half.

Other than goal-kicking and some sympathy calls for the Crows, we were pretty dominant. Zorko out the only change imo

 

[luthor]

Another impeccable display by Lester.

Looks fitter and FASTER this season

I suspect he must have done a power of work during the Covid shut down

I agree he had a poor game, maybe he was concussed after the head clash..

I would love any of the three. T Berry has got elite leg speed particularly in a f50 pressure role

Hmm, we need someone to run through the middle though and I dont see Berry quite filling that role yet, more of a Cox or Christensen kind of play.

I hope we bring in more experience for next week i.e. Allen Christensen for mine.

Possibly affected from the head knock. He was all over place. Needs to fix his poor habit of conceding stupid free kicks.

 

[martinson]

Forgettable game in a lot of respects where we had 12 goals on the opposition with even with average finishing.

Hard to know how any of our second tier players are really going but CEY at least looks neat with his disposal and knows how to position himself.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

Perfect swap.

 

[Ironmonger]

The best thing from today is how Bailey, Berry, and Lester all look like they're going to have better seasons, and Ellis-Yolman looks set to make a difference.

It's easier now to see how we can improve on last year's performance than it was a few weeks ago. Just need to avoid those fadeouts, and kick a little straighter.

 

[MacMum]

A frustrating win....brilliant at times, beautiful to watch, then omg that 3rd qtr and then there was the 23pts, geez!

Thought Charlie got a bit cute at times, needs to settle and just play smart footy. Also thought Rayner played well, seemed in and about quite a bit. Gave him a vote.......deserved one for his 50th

..but happy with the win, just wish we'd buried them with all the oportunities we had.

 

[Dalions]

33 scoring shots to 11 - say no more!


Edit: Should have been a flogging.

Dev??

 

[Nunez]

Dizzy looked out of sorts today. I wonder if he was sick?

 

[kylegee28]

Four ripper marks today as well

 

[Hollow Knight]

Frustrating game but we should get a fair bit out of it including some lessons on killer instinct and taking chances.

Had an amazing view of Charlie’s mark. Worth it for that alone.
