Positive or Negative your personal thoughts.
When you watch a intra club pratice game or read about the performance of players have do the results effect you? For example Tom Lee lines up on Sam Fisher and kicks 8 and marks everthing. Is this a positive as you view that weve picked a young gun or its the end of our best defender and our defence is doomed. Or on the other hand Stanley keeps Roo touchless at CHB or Seb Ross has 35 touches with Joey struggling to hold him and Milne makes Geary look stupid but Newnes is given a bath by Milera.
Do you take positives out of a forward marking everything or look at as our defence struggling. Your thoughts and you no answer is wrong.

Anyone playing extremely well = they and the club are in for a great year
Anyone getting towelled up = it's only an intra club match

Re: Positive or Negative your personal thoughts.
the only positive i get out of these games is if the players have a good hard hitout with no injuries !

If Lee kicks 8 I will be salivating over the NAB cup games and get ridiculously over excited. it would be Tommy fever mark II.

Re: Positive or Negative your personal thoughts.
I suppose if Lee were to kick 8 on Fisher, I'd take that as a positive as we already know how good Sam is and that he can consistantly perform.

Re: Positive or Negative your personal thoughts.
agree, we know our seasoned players will step it up when the time counts. to see a newer player tear it up is big positive and shows they are set to really press for selection and lift our overall talent level.Trixilver wrote:I suppose if Lee were to kick 8 on Fisher, I'd take that as a positive as we already know how good Sam is and that he can consistantly perform.
no injuries is usually my biggest concern in these games.
love to be there.

Another lie. When have I ever said Ben was the best ruckman ever for his age. Its a pathetic way of trying to get people on your side. As for practice games if a 30 year old struggles on a new guy I wouldnt care at all so if Fisher 8 kicked on him by Lee that would be great for Lee and would mean stuff all for Fisher. These games are like kissing your sister.

Do you kiss your Mum?

Simple question. Do you kiss your Mum?

I Know but i just want to know do you kiss your mum because it doesnt seem strange to me that people kiss their mum or sister. I certainly do on birthdays and Xmas.
I dont get what you mean into that stuff. Kissing your sister doesnt seem strange to me just like kissing your mum doesnt seem strange. Well actually kissing your mum and sister would be strange because I dont know them but you get my point.

That has nothing to do with my mum.
Why use that analogy then?
Its a saying that has been around for years. maybe you missed it.

Re: Positive or Negative your personal thoughts.
Yeah I don't take much from practice matches because some players are going harder than others but you might see something you like.
eg. loved the way Winmar (the real Winmar) took a mark, swivelled in mid-air and landed softly facing the way he wanted to run
Plugger in his first practice match -a fat kid who could take a bloody good mark
Robert Elphinstone - saw his first practice match at Frankston and told my mate next to me that he would never make it and then had his father who I didn't know was standing in front of me tell me I was a d***head. And his father was right!
Love practice matches.

I'm excited knowing the kid will get more of a go under Watters than he ever would have under Lyon. Now that's exciting!
When they created LENNY HAYES (in the shadow of Harvs) they forgot to break the mold (again)- hence the Supremely Incredible Jack Steven!!

Maybe it more like going to a dance party full of talent and you end up only dancing with your sis.ROLS-LEE wrote:Kissing your sister ????plugger66 wrote:ROLS-LEE wrote:I bet it big mac gets beaten by hickey plugger will still say that big mac is still the best ruckmen ever for his age.

Re: Positive or Negative your personal thoughts.
Yeah, I must admit I'm a big fan, always good to see kids that you might never see again. I liked Alan Murray one year in a practice match, didn't come to much though.Gershwin wrote:Love practice matches.
