BB said look for sprouts. Ill give you 3
Sammy K
Boeky
JW
Very impressive

Yep like all those 3 but geez out tall defenders look lost.  Seems to be playing a game style of guarding space rather then playing tight againsy there forward. Any turnover or fast break and means easy no contest goals. Early days maybe it's will work. Maybe.

Gibbs and daisy just going thru the motions.

Cripps could be better then Judd. Yep only practice match but this kid is on a different level.

5 goals in a half is better than the previous 2 weeks.
Still not tight enough with our team defense. Still not sticking a lot of tackles and we're losing a lot of 1 on 1 battles.
Weitering, Kerridge, Graham & Boekhurst are the 1's we can get excited about going forward.

However scrappy it is, it's still 13 scoring shots apiece at half time. It's not as if we've had no chances.

Cripps has a lazy 17 touches which you would hardly notice.
The kid is quality ;)

Requires the defenders to work as a unit 100% in sync and trusting one another, will take time although Rowe is just all at sea.

Daisy not to bad, Gibbs is a real worry.

This boy and JW will be the envy of the competition make no mistake.

If Jones has a future with us (which is doubtful) it will be as a defender not as a forward.
Rowe has reached his potential and it falls short.

(BTW are you still in the polo shirt business Rob? My hadley /Yarran shirt is obsolete) :D
It's sad days alright , but still not a Jones fan. Yes in the merchandise business, started my own company Blue Shark Merchandising,  ;)

Well we will have to trade/draft them because they are not at our club now unfortunately

Let's talk about a  polo run soon.
What we need to do is not tie it to just one or two seasons but a shirt that will last the test of time.
We wont tie it to individual players but rather the club or the site.
The ones we got last time were quality and are still going strong. ;)

Nice goal, but hard work to create the chances. Is Everitt even playing? Can't remember seeing him yet?

Boekhurst has put on some muscle... looks more AFL ready.
