2nds The Official Northern Blues Thread III

[Feva]

Good comeback by the boys.

Scores level halfway through the third.

Buckley is on fire - now has 4 goals. Very smart player. And McLean continues to push for senior selection. Pressure is on Curnow tomorrow.

As for Lucas, kicking and decision making is diabolical!

 

[Blue Girl 4 life]

Watching Buckley back himself from 50 out. What a ripper!
Loving his game!

 

[thylacine60]

Geez, McCarthy has had a poor game.

 

[cookie monster]

Pat McCarthy is anus

 

[thylacine60]

fairly anus, yes...

 

[Silvagnis]

Buckley has a Brent Harvey-type kick on him.

BOOMER!

Love Boots.

Watson has smashed Tarrant in the air this quarter.

Paddy Mac needs to bulk up to hold his ground. That rockape Hanson was too strong one out.

 

[goreds]

Just saw Buckley at a stoppage get the hard ball and clear it in traffic.

Looks the goods or next season after a preseason on the weights...

Is Lucas, AJ playing??

 

[Silvagnis]

Dylan had some poise and a cool head there.

Boots has smarts too.

Lucas and AJ are playing. Collins held over as an emergency for the firsts. Joseph looks a better player up the ground. *cough*

 

[cookie monster]

Add Bootsma to the list of future stars. Watson showing a bit

 

[goreds]

The young fella, Visser, only 18 but he looks like a player...

Is he listed??

 

[thylacine60]

Scores level, damn good game.

 

[thylacine60]

The young fella, Visser, only 18 but he looks like a player...

Is he listed??

He looks like Nick Maxwell's head on a cotton bud.

 

[mike ockerts]

McCarthy getting taken to the cleaners bad

 

[goreds]

Pat McCarthy is anus

He is having an absolute shocker...

Career ending stuff!

 

[cookie monster]

McCarthy is useless

 

[HARKER]

Disappointing to see some of our players just not wanting to get their own ball.
Sadly Lucas is one of them.

Seems to be a common theme of the CFC atm

 

[Silvagnis]

Buckley off with what I hope was cramping.

McCarthy just needs to bulk up with Tarrant and Hansen having three and four seasons of weights work on him. Showed good smarts to use his body to block and leave it for Visser. Visser looks like Bootsma's brother who plays in the ruck. Good mover and frame.

 

[zeeCFC]

McCarthy had a stinker but career ending? Get a grip fellas. He's a very very promising skinny key position player. Needs time.

 

[The Coach]

Geez, McCarthy has had a poor game.

Very poor.
As commentators said Buckley has that something extra you need to make it. Give him a year or two and we will have a player
Never saw Boots game v Giants but we have to take care of him and he should not be considered for seniors yet.
Visser was interesting

 

[zeeCFC]

Yes liked Visser, great attack and beautiful taps to advantage

 

[HARKER]

Yeah, very happy for Buckley.
If more of the boys had the Buckley's or the Barnsgrove's, we'd win plenty at this level.

Liked Bootsma's game from what I saw.
We're going to love this kid for years to come and we may just be liking Buckley much sooner than I would have thought.

 

[blues4flag]

Had no idea about this game. Final score? Highlights?

 

[zeeCFC]

Always thought your 2013 assessment was a bit harsh harks

He has a good frame. Dale is bigger nowadays too.

 

[TheRedPill]

He is having an absolute shocker...

Career ending stuff!

Haha, career ending stuff? Pull your head in. He's an especially skinny KPP in his 2nd year - gets beaten by bigger and more seasoned opponents, and that's supposed to end his career?

Absolutely clueless.
