Hey guys, just wondering for those who went to the game; how was the new scoreboard? Is it actually a significant improvement on the previous one?

Its better but nothing to ride home about. Instead of the score it flashes up some states like clearances but i doubt 90% of the fans really noticed.

Looked a bit better, at least it had a bit of colour on it, I struggled to read the time on it, but I sit in the 3 tier stand, and my eyes are pretty shit, especially after a few beers:D But an improvement on the old one.

Didn't have the time or the crowd on it and with the graphics I actually found it a bit harder to read at times. Apart from that it was perfect ;)

It's like listening to Ken Judge all over again.

With regards to the bombing into the forward line some have mentioned, I completely disagree. When kicking with the wind to the three tier end we did that, but that works when the breeze is behind you. Rosa, Wellingham, Selwood, Priddis and a few others all kicked goals from 50 or outside going that way.

When kicking the other direction I thought we lowered the eyes a lot more. Gaff speared a couple of beautiful kicks in, as did Hurn, LeCras and Shuey a few times to leading forwards.
gaffs field kicking was very good yesterday I thought. I liked his game.

Thank heck for that.

"Thank you for your email and feedback.
We have passed on your feedback to Patersons Stadium, their management and venue sound consultants are working on finding the appropriate volume levels for the siren and sound system at future events.

This was the first opportunity for them to utilise the new Audio Visual system on an AFL match day and also presented the opportunity to seek valuable feedback from spectators at the game.

Adjustments will be made as required to achieve the best possible quality and consistency of sound throughout the stadium.

Kind Regards,

Coaches votes for the game

Both coaches obviously rated the games of lecca and rosa but they had varying opinions on the games of scooter and priddis

Would love to know which coach gave votes to priddis
 
Negatives:
- Leaky last quarter
- LeCras giving away a free when JK was about to goal
- Still more bombs and pot shots than we'd like, better than last year but good teams will punish those

Postitives
- Pretty much everything else

I've been shouting Rosa's praise for the last few seasons, glad to see him back in form as he's a huge boon to our team. Hopefully he can stay injury free, if so I see him staying in the 21 all year. At his best he combines the best aspects of Masten's and Gaff's games.

Priddis WTF? Wellingham, Darling, Mckenzie and Bennell were all better than him. Dude must be holding some dodgy pictures of someone. ;)
 
JK's stats worrying but his pressure was great.
His stats aren't worrying; did you see the balls that were supplied to him? He couldn't take a trick but still finished with 2 goals. Could've easily had 4 or 5.

Meh he had a bad game but he still had 6 tackles and 2 goals and still better than Buddys effort a few weeks ago v GWS. He will bounce back and kick 4-5 goals this week.

Not to mention the poor delivery.

I certainly wouldn't say his form is 'worrying'. He was electric during the preseason.
