Thanks for the report Baggers - look forward to seeing some of the boys in the seniors next week.

BTW, good to hear that Kreuz did OK - and didn't even get injured. ;)  Seriously, pleased to hear he's on the way back.
Reality always wins in the end.

Baggers, fantastic update , you're a gem.

I'd play Watson, Garlett and Cripps the next two weeks given we probably won't have Daisy, Menzel and Ellard.  For Watson and Jeffy to would be the last throw of the dice.

Also great to hear that Kruz got through his game time and that the second Irish boy is going from strength to strength.  Sheehan has been fantastic, and another like him would be sweet.

Anthony has been a success story in defence for the NBs... as I mentioned previously, I reckon he could find himself rookied onto an AFL list next year as a defender.

Thanks for the report Baggers. Interesting the other report had Holman as playing very well as well, surely a call up is on the cards with Daisy more than likely gone as well as Ellard?
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

On a rare free weekend, I got out to Cramer St to see precisely what Baggeers relates. Not much can be added. Was in the stand nattering to a seemingly well-connected gent who says just this about Anthony. He might be a ... erm ... singular character but he's experienced and knows what the game's about. Another who does is Heath Scotland who quietly went about explaining to the defence what needed to be done when and where. NB's were outgunned, so the backs were under pressure but he looks and sounds the goods and may well go some distance in this caper. That gent also said Lucas endured a period of depression along with tearing a hammy off the bone and will be back west at year's end. As he got the ball early on, someone said "he'll muck it up" and he duly did, twice in fairly quick succession. He was prone to dumb kicking. Loved watching MK throw his considerable weight around. He got more confident as the game wore on and clunked several unassailable full-stretch grabs. Jeffy did some good things, mostly from the wing but sometimes in the centre. Even got a few tackles in. McInnes still lacks almost any confidence. Perhaps a good preseason will allow him to get it back. As said above, Cripps had a better second half. By no means fast across the park and needs an engine but is quick of mind in heavy traffic and got the ball out from a few packs. Pretty classy at this level but needs more physical development. The game got pretty congested so it wasn't that it slowed to suit him. He stepped up.

Anyone think a club will take a punt on bad boy Dan Connors?.....kicked a few goals this season and seems to have behaved himself...

Cheers Baggers.

Good report.

Watson got three, were they good or simple?

To be fair, they were good. He earned them and we know he is a good kick.

Good luck to him because his games for Freo as a forward were just about the worst I've seen from an AFL player.

Was pretty bad in the WAFL as well.

I can't imagine a scenario where he'd get a game based on what I saw two years ago..
