VFL Rd 2: Northern Blues vs. Geelong April 11, 2016, 09:37:36 pm Northern Blues take on Geelong this week at the cattery at 1900 hours on Friday Night.I'm not sure how deep their list is, but our last quarter fade out and generally ordinary skills don't leave me with a huge amount of confidence.The NB 2nds play their opening game against Casey at Casey on Saturday at 1200 midday. I am more confident about this one, as there should be a few Carlton listed players available to play. Quote Selected

With Wood not named, it is all up to Korchek and Gorringe. Quote Selected

Re: VFL Rd 2: Northern Blues vs. Geelong Reply #7 – April 15, 2016, 07:22:16 pm Decided to go. Great mark and goal to Jaksch but Geelong is sh1tting on us now. 4 in a goal. 25-6. Jones started well. Actually a couple of good marks using his body. A first. Better than his mad, uncontrolled jumps at packs. Quote Selected

Re: VFL Rd 2: Northern Blues vs. Geelong Reply #13 – April 15, 2016, 07:37:19 pm Words cannot describe how small Bolton is. He took the forwards aside and spoke to them in a teaching fashion, which was good. Quote Selected
