Fair half of football.

Rusty as an old boat trailer.

I just hope we can sustain this in the second half. If we get overrun again like last week the arse will fall out of the club and it will be season over

Good first half Gresham Hind Lonie just do frustrating things. Burn leads to often. Umpiring has been 50/50 but did hand the WB their first goal

What a turnaround from the first term! Kickstarted by the umps 2 fifty metre penalties for goals (thanks!). Started moving the ball a lot better, some real nice plays out of the centre.

Clark looks real good, carrying on from where he left off.

Wasn’t originally a fan of Butler, but he’s kind of making himself undeniable.

Jones on the other hand looks good getting the ball, but his disposal by both hand and foot is atrocious!

Ryder has been good in the ruck, but it has made Marshall basically worthless, which I don’t think is the right move. That was always my worry when we went after Ryder.

Let’s hope they can keep it up in the second half, as we all know what happened round 1!

Like Geary as a defensive forward.
Hope we persist with that and give Paton Clark and Coffield a chance to gel


Nee!

OK so first half takes.

Our match ups are all over the place. Geary in a forward pocket for almost an entire quarter.
Ryder is absolutely monstering English. 21 hit outs to 6. A few have been absolute pearlers giving first use as well.

Well up on contested ball.

Hunter Clark was everywhere before drifting a bit in the second half of Q2. Billings good also.

Butler looks like a great pickup.

Mids are busy. If we were cleaner we would be a lot further out.

Can not, must not drop this game from here.

Why is Roo wearing a suit that looks like one of those ones tailors use to design a custom one?

He looks like an optical illusion right now. :)

50/50 umpiring in Curlyland is 11 frees + 2 50’s (for goals) for to 7 frees against...

Sounds about right! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Gears doing a smashing job as defensive fwd on JJ. His tap set up the Butler/Hill goal
