U18 Champs U18 Champs Round 3 - Vic Country v South Australia (June 18, 10:35am)

[roos_fanatic08]

Outside of Reid…have really liked some of DeMattia clearance work, his first few steps are really powerful.

Darcy Wilson has found a stack space, has really good decision making with ball in hand.

Duursma showing a more physical side to his game that I haven’t seen all that often.

Stevens playing well through the midfield, ridiculous physique for a kid his age.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

That run and carry by DeMattia was beautiful. Shame the kick didn’t find the mark.

He’d be improving his draft chances today I’d think.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Unreal finish by Goad, good goal. Not many 207cm players can gather and kick a goal like that.

Not many would’ve tipped SA to be in this game after what they’ve shown over the past few weeks.

Great job keeping us up dated roos-fanatic08 much appreciated.

Mate SAs 2024 draft class is one of their best in years, it doesn't surprise after they included half a dozen that they went from shocking to competitive.

Delean goes whack whack and this game looks shot

 

[noobermensch]

Tyler Welsh, what a prospect

Still wouldn’t have expected it with the depth of Country’s midfield. But SA are giving them a pasting around the ground.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Tyler Welsh, what a prospect

Doing it all, contested marking, kicking goals from snaps and on the run. Will be the perfect replacement for Taylor Walker in the long term for Adelaide.

Sid Draper having another fantastic game too.

 

[Jack Richards]

Is Harley Reid playing? Haven't heard the commentators say his name at all or mention him at all





*clearly not serious, you would think it is just about Harley and no one else

You would laugh if another kid rises and outshines him...

Makes you think has another bloke ever outshone the #1 kid (outside of McCartin's draft who was more due to injuries)?

 

[SumTingWong]

Like the look of Ryan for SA

Like the look of Ryan for SA

He has been consistent for them. Across the 3 games he has probably out performed more fancied half backs like Alex Holt.

 

[eDPS]

Country lost at selection, some players don’t look close to being champs level, how Frangalas can’t get a gig for this team astounds me.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Would love to know how many intercepts Patton has had, he has been a rock across half back for SA.

Lack of talls really hurting Vic Country, they don’t have many aerial threats around the ground. Archer Reid having no impact at all.

Always tough for tall forwards when the ball is coming in so disgustingly bad

Should have played Finn O'Sullivan as well. Feel like they've been comprehensively beaten in the midfield.

Country lost at selection, some players don’t look close to being champs level, how Frangalas can’t get a gig for this team astounds me.

A.Reid, Pierson, Pierce, Smart, James, Ryan, Dawson, Anastapaoulos and a few others have really not given much at all.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Hey Shifter.

How can someone rupture an ACL 4 years before birth?

 

[lionshine]

Kade De La Rue's draft stocks have to be enhanced after today. He has played well for the Stingrays as well.

 

[noobermensch]

Sid Draper any chance for the Larke medal?

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Outside of H.Reid, the whole forward line just didn’t compete.

Really would’ve like to have seen Darcy Wilson through the midfield for Country too. Didn’t get much time in the guts.

 

[roos_fanatic08]

Sid Draper any chance for the Larke medal?

You’d have to think he’ll be in the mix. Been SA’s best player for all 3 games.

 

[Davo-27]

Vic Country not picking any underagers, get beaten by a team who was garbage until they picked underagers, that's the story of this game in a nutshell.

 

[Jupes]

Will want to leave WCE I reckon if they draft him.

damn looks like we have to trade pick 1 to you guys then

 

[Haggas]

damn looks like we have to trade pick 1 to you guys then

West Coast should split the pick to the highest bidder anyway get in multiple young players
