there'll probably be some interesting match-ups with a wilkes on a dempster and the like.

everything is not necessarily as it seems sometimes...

....however, it'd be nice to see watters let stanley go by playing gilbo on him.
take rhys to the goalsquare against BJ and the blake. then gilbo again. shit, throw kosi down there and see if he can outmark the big pole if BJ goes back into the middle.

whoever gets lenny is gonna have a pretty tough morning.

nah, just want to see them play. Will be interesting how the new boys go, how good our youngsters actually are, and watters' style (who has been super impressive so far)

Only about a month and a half to go!

Rhys and Darch? (have to say I'm a bit partial to Ledger as well)

Mistype, meant to say boy without the s. Darch has kicked a couple I think, though once we get reports it will be more clear.

Re: Intra-Club Game - Friday 10 Feb at 9.30am

Might be a bit early to assess Darch, as he missed a month with a hammy. Would be interested in where he played though. Seems he's playing forward with Wilkes and Simpkin filling key defensive posts. I'm a bit torn, as I'd like him to stay forward, but I did like his form at FB late in the season. But as long as they keep him out of the ruck!

Re: Intra-Club Game - Friday 10 Feb at 9.30am

Report on SS has Cuz getting cleaned up again (running back with the flight)?

Also reported that Crock has put on plenty of weight (a pic earlier in pre-season indicated he had, but nice to hear it translates on the field).

It seems Lenny has got through OK , but after he played out a game (against North?) with an ACL who knows!

Wasn't a lot of intensity , but I thought Darch looked better in the forward line than Kosi and Rhys.
Peeled off from Wilkes quite nicely at one point.

Gilbert lined up on Riewoldt for a bit, I think Simpkin had a shot as well.

Both Simpkin and Wilkes looked pretty good, though I wasn't overawed on the overall level of skill.

F/up of the day was Newnes who was caught with hot potato in his back line and passed it to an opponent.

I'd have liked to see some more marks or at least attempted marks from the key forwards.

Not sure how much of the ball Lenny was getting , he might have been Dempstered.

Lenny was still running with the others after the game.
Looked pretty comfortable.

Re: Intra-Club Game - Friday 10 Feb at 9.30am

went down, was behind the goals opposite to Linen House. (missed the first qtr)

Thought Markworth (10?) looked good, showed something.
Cripps was impressive, played really well.
Stanley presented well, but i didn't see him take a mark under pressure. Saw newness handball it to dal santo, had a good voice before that.
Didn't know who half the players were, didn't have a list.

Who was 60 and 64?

A big bastard.

Markworth did look pretty good.

Jack Steven was showing some real leadership.

I read that the big guy no one recognised was from Sandy... Michael Sikora, apparently.

There were a couple of Sandy players from what I hear.

Only played VFL reserves last year, although Zebraman seems to think he'll be able to step up in 2012. 206cm. 104kg. 23yo.

Thanks for the updates gang.

Any changes in ball movement you could pick up?

How did Saad and Ledger look?

He is an absolute monster. Makes McEvoy look small!! Macca was full of praise for him when I spoke to him after the game.

If he and Dylan Jones (195cm IIRC with sticky fingers like Macca) step up, it will help to allow our guys to play in their right positions in the VFL. The issue with Rhys (aside from his ability to play with niggles) is the game plan - needs to be a free wheeler forward rather than worrying about where Kosi and Riewoldt are (I know it's not realistic, but I'm happy if he gets some game time as a forward - even if it is in the VFL).

Monster of a guy, I thought Wilkes dealt with him fairly well though.

I think Macca did OK against him in the ruck as well.
