Play Down Back in 2nd Half

Three in a half isn't that flash, either.

Steene was more 1st ruck, and welll both of them were no match for Crossley.

Well he not Really a Ruckman

Crossely is about 20-30kg Bigger

 

[KinderSmock]

Steene was more 1st ruck, and welll both of them were no match for Crossley.

We really need a bigger body in the ruck.

Should keep Steene and find a more mature body so that if we lose an AFL ruckman, we've got a backup who is built.

Anyone reading this would think Kreuger played out the match. Pies need to improve their VFL coverage.

exactly. Even from the age of 19-20, he looked about 25

Went off Injured his Shoulder Again

Nothing in the report gives you any information that couldnt be gathered by just reading the stats. Not saying the person writing the report wasn't watching the game, but to produce that content he didn't need to.

Went off Injured his Shoulder Again

Wasnt in a sling post game, so I wonder if it was precautionary and its not that bad. Fingers crossed.

 

[domus]

This time next year he could go past Cox as KPF/2nd Ruck

You really want to see the back of Cox don't you? Did his game last night impress you? I don't think we signed him for 2 more years so we could play him in the VFL.

Cox is not a VFL ruckman. He's AFL standard. 25 (say 20 given he played 4ish minutes of the second quarter) in a half is too good for the VFL.

 

[Jen2310]

You can see Kreuger here. One shoulder is taped, as it usually is, the other not. So whatever happened, I don't suggest its too serious.

Macrae had 11 inside 50’s, 8 id say were poor. That’s his one big problem

Needs to lower his eyes and not kick it over the HF's head lol

 

[stormskye]

Needs to lower his eyes and not kick it over the HF's head lol

It’s a combination of both disposal and decision making. Few times he had space and just kicked it to nobody. He was working hard to get the inside 50’s only to continue fluffing them.

 

[3rdMan]

Reef's finishing hss been strong. Kicked a couple set shots from the boundary. Still lacks strength as a third tall forward at AFL level. Preference would be to develop his tank and play further up the ground, but first opportunities in seniors next year are likely to be as a marking forward.

 

[TheGreatGrundy]

McInnes kicked some nice goals from the boundary on both sides.

 

[What is a cakewalk]

Anything notable to say about arlo drapers game? I know he has fans but 10 touches for an out of contract mid doesn't bode well...

Second this, think he's in big trouble too.
