Maybe a big call but I would say today almost puts the cloche on Mitchell & Sheldrick for senior footy in 2024, not that I expected them to feature heavily in the run home anyway. But I thought they were really ordinary today, and with the bye next week, by the time they get their next opportunity to mount their cases it will be round 22 and we will be closer to full strength (touch wood!) than we are now. Good luck from there.

Kinda bummed as as fringe players I wanted them to bang that door down, to at least give us more options, and they needed to, but they didn't.

Mitchell especially has to start putting together big, complete performances. Not sure this business of relying on a few razzle dazzle moments a game, with a lot of mediocrity in between, is going to cut it for much longer.

Thought Sheldrick was tagged too heavily. Hard to judge him after coming back from injury. Shame they have a bye. Would like to see him playing more and banging the door down.

I had to look up what cloche meant

me too. Not sure it was used correctly either.

 

[Jewelsbon]

Reckon he meant kybosh

 

[Kbroome]

me too. Not sure it was used correctly either.

I didn't think it was spelt like that even tho when i said it out loud i said it exactly how it is pronounced. I blame it being 11:15 at night and staying up late watching the olympics each night

VFL head coach Damian Truslove praised the team for standing up against an experienced Southport home side.

“I think the difference this week was a four-quarter performance," Truslove told Sydney Swans Media.

“In previous games, other games this year we've had lapses for half a quarter or a quarter but we managed to stick to the system and our gameplay for four quarters."

Ladhams, Cleary, Mitchell and Shipley were clear standouts for the coach. Truslove noted their effort and leadership abilities across the four quarters. Heading into a bye next week, the coach is looking to take advantage of the momentum.

“We've got a bye next week, so we can take that opportunity to get in a really good training session."

VFL Swans overpower Southport Sharks

A high-pressure game and nine individual goal kickers secured a win over the top 10 side.

Sheldrick has been handed a base sanction of a one-game suspension, which can be reduced to a $500 fine and reprimand should he lodge an early guilty plea.

Bit annoying this is Friday arvo. Will try to take a late lunch and catch some of the first half.

Probably so it's easier on Collingwood's travel-weary souls.

Keen to see our two potential draftees in Cochran & Harrison in action. Really liked the look of Harrison on debut the other week.

Pies reserves are only out on day release.

 

[TheMase]

By chance, I’ve actually got today off to do work around the house. Feel I will be exhausted by 2pm and will have to rest and watch this

 

[Wheresbuddy]

Looking forward to this game. All our listed players should be approaching this game as an opportunity to force their way into a finals bound side, so I'm expecting good energy and intent. Also like to see big performances from Ben Edwards and Matty Lloyd, as both have been great and can continue to push to be considered by us or the other 17 clubs.

 

[tombomb]

Jack Buller out there throwin out a few high fives.

 

[TheMase]

Nice work by Harrison to get that to Ladhams who kicks our first

 

[caesar88]

Smart play by Harrison there. Francis' intercepting been great early on.

 

[Bloods86]

Not sure there's many goals from Green, Francis and McAndrew's work in tight congestion, then Ladhams finishing it off.

 

[TheMase]

And now Ladhams kicks his/our second

 

[caesar88]

Some nice field kicks early from Mitchell, Harrison (x2) and Kirk

LOL I kept waiting for it to come undone, but they worked it nicely!

 

[Dubai Quacker]

VFL standard umps cannot bounce the footy.

 

[caesar88]

Side note - DeMattia will be a gun for the Pies

 

[grimlock]

Ladhams playing like a man possessed

 

[caesar88]

Was that handpass into the corridor by Cochran deliberate or just a lucky ball drop? If deliberate it was elite vision
