Footscray forwards aren't giants but Derksen and Young have controlled the skies.
Ben Camporeale has done some really good work at the contests

But can't hid the side of the barn.

Can't carry someone that is that poor by foot.

May just need someone to come with the right skills to correct what Ben is doing wrong with his kicking.  Fev or Mark Williams perhaps.

It has me stuffed that someone who comes into the AFL system....whose dad played FFS....can come in with such poor skills.

Big game from Acres: 28 possessions, 8 marks, 1 tackle
Otherwise, not a lot of large possession getters:
Lewis Young: 22 possessions, 10 marks.
Wade Derksen: 20 possessions and 15 marks.
Ben Camporeale: 20 possessions, 5 clearances
Cody Walker: 19 possessions, 4 clearances, 1 goal 1.

Liam Reidy: 15 possessions, 23 taps and 11 clearances.
Hudson O'Keefe: 8 possessions, 12 taps, 2 clearances, 2 goals 1.


Chesser, Boyd, Charleson, Cottrell & Fogarty quieter today.
Live Long and Prosper!

Lord: was he taken off to be held over? 9 possessions and wasn't seen during the last quarter. (I only saw maybe 20 minutes).
I presume Flynn Young is also held over.

Talor Byrne: not getting huge numbers, but 3 goals and making an impact.

Concussion apparently.

Initially went off with an eye issue.
