Probably. Still reckon it’ll go into meltdown even if we win by 15 goals today
Was nit rested late, like others were, not in the mix for mine. Vossy has his preferred soldiers. (Martin had an early mark)

Looks like he moved around to me - played mid for a while also
Massive stats for Binns. As a winger I think the knock could be height and aerial ability. A big part of our game plan is wingers dropping back in defence and impacting in the air. Not going to get that from Binns.
Other sides have smaller wingers. Collingwood have sidebottom. Could Binns be a similar winger to him?
Shame Kemp was not tried on a wing. Mainly for the reasons I mentioned above.
Seems our coaches are fine with picking players who don't do much offensively. Cottrell and O Hollands seeming automatic inclusions really boggles the mind. I kind of get it but you need to be pushing for players who can play the role but also do more.
Collingwood must be rubbish, unfortunately playing weak opposition doesn't help to get selected. But it's good to do what we should have done and belt them.
Good reports from our young group.
It's a shame we aren't developing guys like Binns in other positions. I'd like to see him play half forward. It's not like we are stacked with talent there.

Can you blame us?

No promotion should be based on one week...as spectacular as the numbers are.

Binns can have Cerra’s spot.

Binns is a worse kick and going to be even less effective in aerial contests.....

Not actually Brad Fisher
I didn't get to watch.
Were our boys that good or is the Pies ressies team really bad?

Senior List
Put Binns’s performance into perspective, he should not be playing seniors in front of anyone previously mentioned.
Good signs though, when he builds his core strength he’s going to be a player.

Good band name
He certainly has enough AFL attributes to warrant the selection in the draft. With some good leadership at the club and work ethic on his part, we could see some good things long term.

Had a knee injury a few weeks ago, assume it's still an issue
Has been listed as ill last 2 weeks but it could be a cover up for the knee though I don't know why they'd bother.
Moir played a great game, though is he as ambidextrous as he thinks he is? He kicked a beautiful left foot set shot from 50, but failed to make the distance on the right from 3 attempts. Covered the ground well, looked quick and was leaping at the footy. Good signs.
Binns plays the role brilliantly, holds his width and doesn't get drawn into the contest. He demands the footy and runs all day. The size concern is valid but so is selection integrity and rewarding form.
Kemp played well though still question whether he's go the balance right between attack and defence.

How many unches is average?
Is that an educated guess or just an unch?

Good to see this performance, albeit against poor opposition.
The seniors won last night, so it's not like we are going to be looking to reward VFL form every week. More that we are looking at an established point of difference.
Kemp is a chance although Voss seems to want him to do it for a string of games so we shall see. Martin is a huge chance, but does he have to get another game under the belt?
While I have been frustrated with Ollie Hollands and Cottrell recently, Cotts was better last night and Hollands does have the instinct to work back defensively and spoil the opposition. It's a system and there has to be trust within that system and trust in each other.
Port are decent opposition, so I'm not sure this is the right time to bring in new players without an injury. Perhaps the West Coast game where the ground will be hard and true, and a running, bouncing game like the one Binns has, might be a good opportunity to rest a midfielder.

According to Urban Dictionary 3 'unches' would be 1.5 inches, so he'd need to grow around 4cm...
First-class attitude: Moir, Monahan making strides
Among many, Ashton Moir and Rob Monahan drew the praise of VFL Senior Coach Luke Power.
