Good day to make hay for the ruckmen given the height differential and hair do lol. Brave man up on the scissor lift in that wind.

 

[Nathan Barley]

How is Lane developing? Who is tracking better, him or Smith?

Id say Lanes rucking is better but HSmith has more potential

 

[tenderwarrior]

An underated tactic when playing junior, rep and reserves football I'm told. Stand out to recruiters, senior coaches etc, etc...

Each to their own. I chose to let my football do the talking.. pity it was mute..

I haven’t watched enough reserves to comment.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Such an average team

Because we’re up by 4 goal in the first quarter?

Expect more from 18 AFL listed players and a breeze making kicks from 20m out directly in front a tough shot going the other way

 

[Mr Ripper]

I love the 70s more than anyone, but ‘long bombs to Snake’ has probably had its day as a winning strategy.

 

[M Malice]

Berry, Mathieson and Robertson have done some nice things, Lane looking good in the ruck.

They’re currently on track to win by 92 points in a game with horrible weather. Even if you’re kicking with the wind when it’s this windy it makes set shots tough.

 

[M Malice]

Dev Robertson looking liking he is playing as a pure inside mid, briztoon will be happy to know.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Good play by Lester

you can’t extrapolate like that when theres a significant wind advantage

 

[Nathan Barley]

This Port Melbourne team is horrible. I assume their missing captain is one of their better players

I’m at work.

Would appreciate a play by play update for Dev.

jnr our runner?

 

[scoman]

Blake Coleman starting to show he can play at this level. Yes, it's a day that we are well on top, but the games I watched last year he was about our worst player each game.

 

[Nathan Barley]

ESmith must have issues with his eyesight

 

[Nathan Barley]

Are our reserves too focussed on just producing average footballers who can do a solid job filling holes in our seniors?

They don’t seem to focus on using any of the players strengths. Madden and Wilmot should be weapons off half back

 

[M Malice]

ESmith must have issues with his eyesight

Yer, came on to post similar, on 2 occasions he has been under no pressure delivering ball into F50 and he kicked it straight to an opposition player when we had player/s free.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Reveille has gone so far backwards this season

 

[Nathan Barley]

Why do they keep handballing to the ruck?

 

[MSB ROYS]

Our skills have gone to crap in the last 10 minutes.

 

[M Malice]

Great run and carry by Wilmot.

 

[mattsmob]

Well that’s why we picked Wilmot, probably his best play so far this season. Looks very good when he takes the game on with footspeed, nice kick to finish it off too.
