Kerr should have been played vs Collingwood.....been saying it for weeks, he has real size and looks a real footballer......you can tell footballers from hacks and Matt Shaw for example is a hack.

Agree with you too Baggers, Shaw looks like a footballer, nice kick and positions himself well around the ground. Cant see why both Shaw and Kerr don't get a call up this week just on what I saw in the second quarter....

Funny how people see the same thing different.

Its probably the first time I have actually looked for Shaw, very aware of the many posters here who have zero opinion of him, but he is getting to the contest, kicking through the ball, has some pace, and is no worse than either Mullett or O'Shea. I will watch his second half...

Shaw is Mark Whiley with more pace and a better sun tan....dumped by GC who dont exactly have a elite midfield, good honest trier with limited ability but will only block a player like Obriens progress.

Kerr on the other hand is the real deal, specialist Full Forward who can lead, mark and kick long and straight who should be in the seniors and has a future provided the dunce coach will play him along with players like McKay.
Teams are built around players like Kerr, McKay etc not banana's like Shaw......

That one piece of play by Kerr is enough to get promoted to the seniors based on our performance last night. Shaw did look ok and I thought Polson showed a bit. Philips getting smashed in the ruck IMO. Rowe not impressing me.

To be fair on Rowe he'll take a little while. Kerr looks a player.

Agree with you EB in regards to Kerr/McKay+Coach, Shaw wont hold back a first year player like O'Brien because based on what I saw last night O'Brien doesn't belong in the senior team yet. Shaw can warm his seat in the meantime, that's where the blokes like Shaw, Mullett, etc fit in.

You can only go by what you see, and Shaw showed composure under pressure in difficult conditions, made good decisions and delivered by foot with accuracy. I know nothing of Shaw's previous incarnation.

Kerr misses a sitter, if there in one in that wind, after some great 2nd and 3rd efforts by Phillips. Was only 25m out though almost in front. Bit of a Levi special that one.

Anyway, Polson gets us 35 up with an opportunist goal.

Philips had a real good qtr then. Kerrige I think is finished. Shaw still doing OK bar one stuff up.

Media and CFC supporters screaming for Harry to get a gig obviously haven't seen him play. Kerr just needs to spend time with Sav to be a real key forward prospect.
