Blues v Pies Scratch Match - Thursday 20th, 4pm

Well, I'm excited.

Anyone know whether it's going to be streamed, televised or the like?

Go Baggers!
Finals, then 4 in a row!

I'm pretty sure it isn't on TV, although it is getting considerable interest. 6 quarters will be played.
Live Long and Prosper!

What's the difference between quarters of "match simulation" and "game scenarios"???

There will be a game scenario for each team whereby one team might be 2 goals up with three minutes to go. What does each team do .... and then reverse it.

Not easy to tell if a team actually 'wins' or not. Nichevo. I'll get there if I can.
I also doubt that there will be a program: working out who is who may be interesting.

1st qtr, Carlton are fielding a 'senior' team plus Walsh!
No Kreuzer, McG or McKay.

Twitter has each qtr scored individually. Maybe it's like a tennis match and we lead 3 sets to love....lol.

All up I work out we finish 36pts ahead at the end of 4 x 25 min/4 x 10 min terms.

Just got back from the game.
Should be read with a grain of salt considering first hit out for the year but they were pretty fair dinkum in the first 3 qtrs.
At 3/4 time we led 12.6 to 4.3. Then we rested some key players and let Rottingwood back into the game... a bit. We played all our kids for the final 2 qtrs... to avoid confusion, yes, 3 x 1/4s of 25 minutes and 2 x 10 minutes without time on.
No SPS, Martin, H, Brackets, Marchbank, Fisher, Charlie, Tractor, Macreadie, Ben Sos or Goddard... not sure on Cottrell.

The best news of the day for moi was the form of Willo... dominant and outstanding across half back.
Doc eased his way into the game nicely.
Eddie was... well, Eddie. Great stuff from him. Kicked about 3 and could have easily kicked another couple. Warmed the cockles... our forward line looks so much more dangerous with him there.
Meat was very good.
Jack was good, took him a bit to get into the game though.
Paddy Dow started in the 4th qtr and was so so.
Murph played the first 3 qtrs and was rusty but involved. Coupla turnovers didn't impress. At his age I guess he's easing himself into the year.
LOB ...still not convinced.
Simmo... is he really in his late 30s... was like a kid. Good value, good judgement.
Kennedy up forward... not convinced. Coupla nice things but...
Crippa... in 3rd gear for the game and still head and shoulder above the rest.
De Koning is going to be de sheet hot.
Stocker... long way to go.
Jones... great.
Walsh... sensational, doubt there'll be any 2nd year blues here.
Plowman, serviceable.
Weitering injured early and didn't take any further part in the game. Groin or hip?
Newman, serviceable.
Liked what I saw of Pittonet, got attitude and did okay.
Cuningham was same old... flashes of good stuff, then tumbleweeds.
Polson... yawn.
Newnes, liked what I saw. Better than serviceable.
Philp, liked what I saw... positive glimpses.
Ed... was Ed, hard at it and influential.
This Honey kid might just have something!
Finbar... someone is taking the p1ss.
Gibbons... terrific, in everything and effective until rested after 3rd qtr.
Setterfield... coming along nicely.
Owies... need to see more, but good glimpses.

My only real negative for the day (apart from Finbar and Polson and pies at $6 ea) was Lang...

Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
