Who has been the standouts?

Didn't really follow it so wrong person to ask.

I will say this.

32 GC.

70 GWS.

That was the final score.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Going in early on the nicknames but I'm calling Harry Van Hattum the "Mad Hatter."

Nice clear stream in the Vic Metro v SA game right now. SA look to have some very good players. Vic Country v WA to follow.

Is there a player list somewhere?
SA dominant.

The Vics starting to dominate now. But bad kicking is bad football. SA should hold on.

 

[Futbolista]

I wonder if the SA players will get a deserved high ranking after this performance?

It's odd but when people say state matches are they key ranking criteria....then ok fair enough. SA have performed in the key ranking criteria. Then the narrative changes to "but they don't play in the Coates League".

Eventually it wears thin and it does become somewhat predictable.

Vic Country v WA

How did Jack Leys go for SA?

Cody walker 11 touches first quarter

Cody walker 11 touches first quarter

He'll be good in the yellow and black....

 

[Juice030103]

Marlon NeoCleous I think is his name

Seen him do a lot of nice things this quarter

 

[Futbolista]

Number 5 for Vic C is an unstoppable force. A bit unsavoury by that Vic C defender sticking a leg out to trip, if not injure Lachlan McGlade in the last minute of the quarter but would expect nothing less from the Vics.

From a WA view - Lucas Robinson (SF/23), Leo Steed (SD/7), Kye Ormerod (EF/35), Lachlan McGlade (EP/2), Cooper Ramsay+ (EF/32), Jayden Clarke (P/1), Thatcher Simmons (S/18), Garrison Kenh (EP/12), Damien Newry (CL/28) and Axel Walsh** (EP/39) have stood up well.

Cody has a bit of mongrel in him

Well, I';m glad the Vics still play like that. Rivalries in sport are needed. I try and get the Vic folks on here angry but they just don't bite the hook. Times have changed I guess.

Maybe Daniel Andrews scrambled their minds.

Hard to deny it after the 5 bumps off ball he just laid

 

[Futbolista]

To be fair, the Vics aren't getting much help from the umps.

This number 11 for WA is really annoying me clearly doing a run with or tag on walker doesn’t even look like he wants the footy

Josh Nathan? Those good East Fremantle boys from the leafy Southern Suburbs would never contemplate such tactics.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Looks like I have a bit of watching later on.

Two losses for the Vics in one day. But fear not 80% of the best players in this year's pool are Victorian and there is a simple way to confirm this. As Dr Rudi would say -" WATCH MORE COATES" ..... he repeats " WATCH MORE COATES".

I'm sure you'll find that with simple advice the balance will be corrected and all will be fine once again.

Best for WA - Garrison Kenh (EP), Lucas Robinson (SF), Cooper Ramsay+ (EF), Lachlan McGlade (EP), Kye Ormerod (EF), Leo Steed (SD), Axel Walsh** (EP), Antonio Crupi (S) and a special mention for master tagger Josh Nathan (EF)

I think the problem is Coates u16's is only 2 games.

Some tremedous top end talent and then it drops off somewhat but this will correct itself once the colts teams introduce more players from this age group into their line-ups. It's not awesome but it's not too bad with quite a bit of upside..

Won't get any easier for Walker in the future either.....kudos to young Nathan for playing his role and helping his team get over the line.
