Stewart back on the bench ice pack on the groin/hip

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Really liking Jok. Numbers wouldn’t be that good probably 10-12 touches at the start of the fourth but his disposal, run and competing aerially have been first rate.

 

[Red Black and Blue]

McNiece just body spoiled someone to hell. Sounded like baseball bat hitting a gym mat.

Stewart back on the bench ice pack on the groin/hip

Gosh darn it.

Hope its just conservative to make sure he is right to play seniors next week

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Getting sloppy now, Frankston winning the quarter.

Ice off and he’s laughing with someone and walking alright

Could have maybe copped a high cork early in the game. It doesn't seem like its anything to sinister

 

[Red Black and Blue]

Jok strolls in with his first from the goal square, playing as the deepest forward now, pushed up to half way and beat his man back easily on the counter.

 

[fairbump_playon]

Sounds like Stewart is playing Mitch Brown into the team

It’s not cynicism if it’s real, hey Bruno

 

[TheGreatBarryB]

Would have been better if we played a competitive team first up, especially as a bye next week.

 

[Kakkle]

Frankston are complete garbage so not sure what to make of that performance.

Fun fact, our percentage got out to 1043% at one stage. Ended up with 604. This ******* club.

Need to give draper a run in AFL. He'll be beaten but we need him to have a taste and some exposure to what he needs to do.

 

[Zach Package]

Frankston have maybe 6 blokes that are VFL standard so I’m not sure there’s really anything to take from that

There are guys on our VFL list that can’t get a game that should go over there for more opportunity

That's the thing, their list isn't that bad on paper. Fordham, Freeman, Rich, Harnett, Tatupu, Newman, Lok and Alabakis are all players that should be good VFL players and then there are half a dozen more that should be VFL standard.

Thanks for the updates today, folks. What's your appraisal of the games from Langford, Ham and Begley?

For me Begley needs another run or two but looked the goods at times. Ham looks about 15 did some good things but next year for 1s. Kyle played well in patches but I’d pick Redman first on today’s form.

Langford had a good first half, disappointing second.
Ham had 5 good minutes a quarter, but those minutes were very good.
Begley played about 55% of game time, kicked 2 goals. Spent about 10 minutes in the middle too.

Mozzie has a bit of the Colyer's about him.

He'll be beaten but play him anyway.

Jesus.

Bit harsh

Maybe 10 guys who could play VFL at other clubs

Draper is the only one I would bring in from today's exposure.

Redman was gassed 1/2 through the 3rd term, Mynott has had a limited pre season, Langford hardly touched it after 1/2 time, Gleeson had moments. Clarke played a Clarke game. Mitch Brown cashed in after 1/2 time.

Also want to say that the VFL listed guys were great today. Probably took more out of them (and the young draftees) than the mature guys on our list.

I've already claimed Lazzarro as my boy whilst Jake McQueen, Jacob Brown (23rd man) and new recruits Kurt Aylett and Ray Connelan were all good.

 

[rusman]

Is Draper AFL ready yet?

I’m tipping Lazzaro to go in the mid season draft. Still young, versitile and showed a lot of promise last year and locks to have gone up again this year display upwards trajectory.
