2nds Gold Coast Reserves: Title Defense 2024

[Supersuns]

Faulkhead looks the goods

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Anyone else having dramas streaming it? When I put it to full screen it just sits there buffering. I have to watch in minimised. Then it works fine

My stream cut out after faulkheads goal and I missed sextons goal but ok for now

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Andrews to burgess

 

[Supersuns]

God I love Mac

Hollands been way off his best today so far. Missed tackles, sloppy kicks. Needs to be lift his game if he wants to play 1s.

 

[KaySwizzle]

Burgess has really improved his set shot. Very reliable.

 

[Sunny_]

Atkins may have found his spot as a small defender. Reads the ball well coming in and provides good rebound with his skills.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Burgess on fire again

 

[KaySwizzle]

Must be so good for the young players having People like Day, Sexton, Thompson etc. as veterans who can actually provide onfield guidance and also relieve the pressure and step up when we need it.

Sexton has had some nice kicks to Burgess. Forward line seems to be working together nicely.

Atkins can play the Weller role if needed.

 

[Supersuns]

Burgo too good for VFL

 

[KaySwizzle]

Burgo too good for VFL

I do agree. But who does he replace in the main side? Much like a few other players, I’m just not sure who comes out for them.

I think Burgess deserves another AFL game before Day based on current form though.

Is he physical enough?

I don't think he is

 

[KaySwizzle]

I don't think he is

I would liken Atkins to a player like Weller (also not a very physical player). Probably not as fast, but usually a good kick and someone you want releasing the ball forward of 50. I’m not suggesting he makes best 22, but it could work if needed and fill a similar role on the half-back/wing rotation.

Conroy is so not at this level.

The role is there, maybe only for a month until Luko returns back to that position

Still not sure if Bowes is fighting Davies or Farrar for a spot

conversely, oof, Sharpy is way too good for this level. Especially in this defensive winger role.

 

[Supersuns]

Conroy is so not at this level.

Yep he sucks

 

[Big Red Machine]

Faulkhead has looked lively and kicked a great goal there. Exciting

Missed seeing his goal but just watched him be on his hands and knees with the ball under him and somehow found a way to drag his way up to his feet with the ball and get it away.

That impressed the hell out of me.

 

[MarcLocksCrustySock]

Faulkhead is a player.

Pretty much clean pick up dodged a player and flushed one from 50

I’m sure we’ll upload the goal pretty soon

 

[RowellAnderson12]

All these youngsters on fire today but I’m jumping on the Faulk head hype train. Dynamic and classy

 

[Sunny_]

At this stage it's hard to tell who's actually playing well or not because we're just dominating all over the ground.

Really good team effort tbh
