Boyds kicking and decision making for a kid is impressive.

Young's not in the hunt, he's 200cm and that sort of positioning and effort is not good enough.

We look like a team who looked sensational playing against each other during PS training then we come up against opposition and have no idea.

Second half of last year, we played irresistible, instinctive footy. Not one iota of that is on show tonight.

Tall Defenders at sea without weitering. And dropping our dopey ruckman there confuses things further.
Only a practice match but that part is a bit of a worry.
Doc needs to play back until weiters returns.

That side on slow motion of Sparrow's mark is a huge tell about Young as a KPD, the lad is a giant and he's looking to stand guard and collect crumbs rather than compete. Competing for the footy is not natural for him.

Got to be going hard for that to happen. We are just playing practice match intensity. Don't care to much about that as long as that's intensity isn't what we are taking into Round 1. Would be a very Carlton thing to turn up and thing it will just happen.

Gov also needs to get more involved by tracking the footy and either intercepting or punching it clear.

Oh by the way, praccy match or not, we have to travel to the Gabbatoir in a little over a weeks time. If we play like tonight, they will make an utter mess of us. Its concerning that we are playing like this on our home deck a week out from the real stuff. I expected a sharper effort than this. I hope the Xmas bath water drinking sessions didn't happen.

We would hopefully play with more intensity. The rest follows.

That last part though is my worry I must admit.

Haven't kicked any goals yet but dumped a few out on the full.

Don't care about intensity as it's a practice game but our ball movement is terrible.

If it was a hot windy evening in some country town, I'd say "Oh well". But to play as shambolic as as we have on a ground that we we know (or should know) every blade of grass and have trained on all summer? Its a real worry.
Ollie Hollands has been our best player by the length of the Flemmington straight.
