SANFL Round 12

[kingyubbo]

Jimmy Sellar starting on the bench and Symes at Half Back Flank. How's Sellar these days?

Symes first kick in to the forward 50 ineffective. Had Westoff on the lead but decided to centre it and put it up way too high.

 

[-VC-]

I know Ive said it before and VicCrow for one wasnt impressed but Cook needs to get on the field.

I think we all want him to get on the field. I just don't think there's any threat over his spot on the list. The club posted on Cook's hamstring earlier in this week (I can't remember which thread) and basically he's not had recurring hamstring injuries, he's just had spasms and that.

Just because we chopped Obst a couple of years ago doesn't mean every first year player needs to sleep with one eye open. Especially since he's had an unlucky year with injuries.

Glenelg 40 - Centrals - 8 - Sellar - 0

Jesus were we a bit premature when we gave Hinge the boot - he looks awesome, really hard at it.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

Sellar punch and kick - 1st possession a beauty - Could be Margary Votes coming.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

Sellar into the ruck. In the little I have seen of him he looks a better option as a ruckman than forward - which doesn't bode well for his career at the AFC.

 

[Gets!]

Thanks for this amazing commentary SpringChoke.

hard at it, but the disposal is terrible

Does anyone think that that the afc should change sanfl clubs for sellar, he just isn't the 'go to man' for the bays generally and is behind a handful other forwards, so there is often no option but to put him in the ruck most times. I mean if Walker was in the bays would he be performing as well as he is currently?

I wouldn't mind seeing sellar moved to Norwood and he and walker can develop a good forward structure for the crows in the future.

I'm just saying this purely because every time (most anyways) i read the SANFL reports on glenelg sellar always seems to play either in the ruck or just sits on the bench. I mean it's not doing us a favour by keeping in him a team where he is always being played in a position we do not require him to play.

What are your thoughts on this?

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

Thanks for this amazing commentary SpringChoke.

No worries madam, anytime.

 

[kingyubbo]

Sellar defensive pressure. Won the contested ball and locked it in against 2. Good stuff!

Who's Grima? Seems to be gunning it for the Bays. Taking marks everywhere.

 

[magtrev]

I think i was 9 last time the tiges won out there. Amazing stuff.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

True......Jeez Westhoff looks terrible. He maybe meeting Sellar in the reserves the next time these clubs meet.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

I love the look of Symes. But any Crows supporter who thinks we at least broke even in thr Mattner/Symes (effectively) is seriously delusional.

 

[kingyubbo]

Chopping the arms to Sellar just outside the goalsquare. Pretty lucky one. Kicks his first!

 

[magtrev]

Sellar looks by far the most impressive of the 3 AFL players out there to me.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

Seeeellarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr - goal.

 

[Cap]

Seeeellarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr - goal.

trying to study as well as watch this, I haven't heard Sellars name very often

 

[kingyubbo]

Sellar not leading hard enough.... just not running as hard as he should be.

 

[Drummond]

Petrenko one of the best for the Eagles, Jacky good before rolling his ankle.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

he actually looks quite good. Compared to what i saw last year, his intensity does look alot better.

 

[Drummond]

Sellar's tackling, chasing, all things 1%ers are impressive, hopefully his fitness base is gradually improving too. They are building the fundamentals which will then hopefully lead to improved performances.

 

[CaptainDangerfield]

Port 44, Richmond 55 - oh no.

True. If this is the norm for him this year then he doesn't get much gametime.

 

[magtrev]

Hope that Symes plays well in Glenelg's first win at Elizabeth in like, forever.

*king of wishfull thinking

thought i'd quote myself, because Symes was really good in the 2nd half, and the mighty Tiges won

Final score? The Sanfl website is way behind
