VFL VFL Round 20 v Werribee @ Avalon Airport Oval. Sunday Aug 6th 12pm

[Mkcaptain]

Hate singling people out, but Joe Richards just isn't up to it. Not sure if we can delist without re-rookieing but that would be my preference at this point.

Was Stupid move by Club in last year's Draft

It's bizarre isn't it? Doesn't even look good enough for the VFL, and we used a national draft spot on him. 23 years old too

Might as well re-rookie him and just get him to put the cones out at training considering we are paying him either way.

 

[stormskye]

I’ve been a critic but Drapers actually been ok today considering.

 

[Piesinmyeyes]

Better there pies.
Drapers had some moments this qtr
As had Allan

 

[sam_e]

Allan's been our best and he's playing dedicated on-ball

 

[stormskye]

WHE, that was bad miss on halftime

 

[Everybody Panic]

Draper looks very vanilla to me. Would be great if Allen developed some inside game.

 

[Gaben]

Freddy has looked good this quarter, he's moving and attacking the contest well.

 

[stormskye]

Great mark and goal kreugs. 5 goals down

 

[Cobalt King]

We got plenty of AFL listed players out there... any chance of them playing a good game?

Plenty of them are no good. Murley, Drafter and Begg have all been there two years and I'm not sure they have ever played a good game between them. Reef and Kruger play well about 1 out of 3

 

[windchimes]

Clearly suffering from Fin and JC's absences however Allan has done well in the middle.

Liked Kreuger and Cox's quarters just then but not much else positive to report from this really.

 

[ksardog]

what is the point playing Begg forward, he is not a great mark plus you have a forward line of Krueger, Begg and Cox/Steene. So slow and top heavy

perfect chance today to play him as a key back and let him see if he can make it there.

but no

Moving really well. Did a lot of good in the 2nd quarter

 

[Kappa]

Begg Murley Draper Bianco Wilson Ruscoe playing for their careers... have a dip ffs.

 

[No SPIN]

If he can control his composure, be team focused ie don’t fly for unmarkable balls, then his aggression/effort mobility and agility take him past AJ.

 

[ThePheonix]

His record is seriously horrendous. Look at our line-up yesterday:

• 3 F/S gifts
• 1 x academy gift
• 8 players traded in
• 6 players from the last 9 years of drafting (Murphy, Mihocek, Maynard, Noble, McCreery and Johnson)
• Elliott, JDG, Pendlebury and Sidebottom all drafted 9+ years ago

Compare that to Hawthorn's starting midfield that annihilated us at centre bounces:

• Ned Reeves (PSD)
• Nash (Rookie)
• Newcombe (Rookie)
• Worpel (pick 45)

Genuinely embarrassing contrast.

Hine was great early in his career but instead of improving had gone backwards and stagnated over the decade. Seems to be surviving on the fumes of his early success.

 

[windchimes]

He's been pretty good with that in the last few games though mate. He's still aggressive but not as reckless as he once was which is good for him.

 

[Kappa]

No SPIN Keep telling us Bianco is a good kick lmao

 

[danielnajdek]

No point talking about Hine. He seems to have a job for life at the Pies.

What's wrong with JC

 

[Gaben]

Ginnivan needed to pull the trigger on a pass when he first got that, had a bunch of options to go to.

 

[stormskye]

What's wrong with JC

Did something at training from Jen’s report. Not sure what atm

 

[windchimes]

What's wrong with JC

Not sure - he left the track with an injury during the week as per Jen2310 - who may know more
