Re: Baby Blues vs. Sandringham at Visy on Saturday

Good win. Sandy came hard in the last qtr kicking the 1st 3 of the term bringing them within 2 kicks, but the NBs steadied, eventually though still losing the last qtr by a goal.
Lambert, Meece, Bransgrove and Wilson were really good for the Preston boys.
Thought our best of the Senior listed players were (forget some of the stats and in no particular order):
Ellard - good return.
Bell - best game for a while - put his hand up.
ROK - good off HB. Strong. Seems to be doing a 2E role - being groomed to release 2E into the guts?
Davies - apart from mediocre disposal, once of his much better games off HB. Ran and linked up well.
Mitchell - Waste.
Casboult - took some good grabs and kicking has improved greatly. When chasing an opponent at one stage ran past Mitchell (who was also chasing) like he was standing still.
Lucas - might have had plenty of touches but ordinary decisions under pressure. Still skirting the packs for easy possessions.
Buckley - was he out there?
Joseph - good. Liked his game. Has improved.
Collins - did some classy things but way too little. No second effort.
Dale - given minding roles, especially on one of their most damaging players in the final quarter - did well, though still learning the caper in terms of defensive positioning.
Duigan and Laidler did not play.
