This is actually enjoyable to watch after last nights disaster!

Campbell Brown commentating keeps Talking up Jones about how good he's been and how the stats won't reflect that

Some very good signs for us here!

Patrick Kerr could be ours Jack Darling.

Agree...he is very impressive, good size but is mobile and for a bigger player he has some vision and smarts....
Alex Silvagni has been very good......you could make a case for him to be upgraded and played to provide some leadership down back.
Liam Jones.....give the bloke credit, gives you effort all the time....rucks like the old follower and is good in clearances, might be some chance to get back in the seniors
if Bolton sticks to his word about picking the team on merit and form...

One thing that has not gone unnoticed to me was the defensive effort today by the NBs. Solid as a rock led by Oshea and Silvagni. The mids and fwds have also been very good, I wonder if they get confidence from the efforts of the defenders. That is, they focus on their roles because their defenders arent under siege.

I thought Graham, Jones, Cunningham and Silvagni were our best.

Silvagni just does stuff right, it's a pity he seems out of calculations.

H and KJ worked hard, KJ most of the game, H was very good early.

Just think KJ's cards have been marked...dont think the coach is a fan....he did some good things today but not enough IMO....

Big knock on Kerr was a perceived lack of mobility, seen as a one position player.  Nice to see his ability is more than that.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Yep...he is mobile and has footy smarts, the pass to OShea when he ran into the goal square was really good....make an ideal FF when he puts on some more size and experience.
Kicks it a mile and knows how to lead for the ball..
Him and McKay at CHF will finally give us a real forward line setup you can build a team around....

Yes, it seems like we have nailed the last two drafts.
