Leigh BOG

 

[jo172]

If you didn't know it would never occur to you Leigh isn't on our list

 

[hendo8888]

Himmelberg ruining the game again

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Heisenberg is our new Joe the Goose

 

[pjcrows]

Watch Knight run, tackle and pressure, and tell me he couldn't play Mackay's "flexible wingman" role.

 

[hendo8888]

Knight's tackling pressure has been fantastic. Hasn't had a lot of it (low TOG?), but attacks the play every time.

Mate. He doesn't have 150 games of experience. He's not even close to what Mackay provides

TBH not much of a game north had a hell young team in

[hey shorty]

Doedee heaping the pressure on, Keath looks great and Hokey Pokey is gonna be a brute of a midfielder

 

[Geoffa32]

Not sure about that 198cm claim about Keath. If he is that tall ROB is 208+

And Ben Jarmen is 6 foot plus ..

North are poo but it's great to see some kids standing up for the Reserves.

 

[mattymac]

Cheney is ready. Seeya Kelly, well done filling in.

Can't fault Knight's effort. Not far away. Needs a bit more polish.

Harto better hope he doesn't cop an injury because Keath looks like he could come in and hold down a key post.

Doedee to debut this year surely. Surely.

Himmelberg looking the goods.

Not much on the outside to take Dmac's spot. Sig a long way away yet. Need the Seed.

If Dmac spuds up again tonight I would want us to play Beech forward as the pressure man and push Charlie back up on the wing

 

[Jeffcrowe]

I get that Gallucci is an elite athlete and all that, but Poholke is a vastly better footballer. Stoked that we took him with the pick acquired for Lyons. Might go down as one of the steals of the 2016 draft in a few years time I suspect.

Agreed

Doedee looks ready , maybe Doedee before Cheney even

 

[Banshee23]

Reckon we ought to take a real good look at Keath sooner rather than later...

 

[GrommoT]

All we are saaaayyyiiingg
Is give Beech a gaaaame.

 

[Jeffcrowe]

He does look like he has a decent inside/outside game Bicks what was the knock on this kid that he went in the 40s?

Wasn't much knock on Poholke but main ones were endurance and speed

Is good overhead for his size , wins contests . A perfect replacement for Lyons but should b come a better version IMO

 

[Huntercrow]

I thought Thomo looked good in the second half. I missed the first half.

 

[mcday]

I wish Doedee wasn't injured in the preseason. If not he could be in the team already. Hopefully he debuts within the next month.

Knight was probably the main threat to take Mackay's spot, but he just looked a little bit off, although his effort was there.

Himmelberg, Doedee, Beech, Keath, ROB, and Cheney all looked good. We've got some serious competition with our talls. Himmelberg has probably moved ahead of Dear in the young KPP stakes.

The mids are another story. Sig's got nice hands, but clearly needs to develop physically and improve his kick. I wouldn't mind if they gifted Poholke a game or two later in the year, just to give him a taste, he showed some nice signs today.

While it was good to see Gore get some more of the ball finally, I'm not sure he has enough AFL attributes to make it at the next level. Tries hard, but just doesn't do enough with the ball.

Having competent top up players makes a pretty massive difference. Leigh and Murphy especially are killing it.

Not sure if we have the capability to bring him up?

Beech and Greenwood up for Davis and CEY.

 

[Bicks]

No knocks other than he needed to work on his tank and maybe improve his production, if you go back to the draft thread from last season you'll see all of us that watch the U18's rated him highly, very similar player to the more highly rated Taranto in that he is good at the contested stuff, excellent overhead and quite capable of hitting the scoreboard up forward. In fact I think we were very lucky he had been overlooked up to our pick.

 

[Murray2503]

O'Brien, Cheney, Doedee, Beech, Knight all good. Impressed with O'briens marking around the ground. Will play soon. Himmelberg has a lot of potential and did some good tbings.

Went short on the list this year though IIRR

 

[1990crow]

My take..
Wigg barely noticed he was playing today.
Beech quality game but still unsure if his game will hold up at AFL level or if he's an upgrade on anyone we have in there.
Doedee was a class above, needs to play AFL ASAP.
Cheney needs to come in for Kelly, he will make us a better side.
Knight was good but disposal lets him down.
Keath impressive. If he could get more of the ball he would make a nice CHB to upgrade on Hartigan. Reminds me of Hombsch in his body positioning.
Poholke had his best game with us by a mile. Can't wait to see more.
Obrien is too good for SANFL.

Now that makes a lot of sense.

Need Camerons speed and pressure in that back half to create turnovers.

Beech for mine is ahead of Menzel when he comes back.
