Wow, didn't see that coming. Best performance in a couple of months. Particularly impressive given the circumstances.

Pros:

Contest, tackling and pressure.
Cripps, Pittonet, Kemp, Hewett, Oli, Elijah, Cowan, coaching panel.
Slashing first half from Durdin.
Super encouraging performance from Lord in the first half. Looks built for AFL footy.
Good second half from Binns.
Exciting flashes for Moir.
Young was good. I hope we persist with him down back, and Kemp up forward.

Cons:

More injuries.
Motlop was very average again. You know you're slow when you're getting chased down by Witherden.
Walsh still looking hobbled.
Home crowd umpiring.

Very professional performance. Players adapted to not bombing inside 50 pretty quickly.
Crippa huge. Pitto dominated. George good.
Kemp is better in front of the ball. Perhaps we have found our third tall forward.
Good game Durdin, Owies and Williams early.Both the Hollands boys good, particularly Elijah. Cowan reliable.
Good confidence building win.

Some stirling shutdown performances from Weits, Cinc and Young. their forwards never got a sniff.

I think Walshy picked up another injury. Bruising in the shape of Reids hand. :yikes: :yikes:

Damn he is one powerful beast.

Depends on results.
We can get up to 4th apparently (if WCE beat Geelong and other results in our favour)

The most undermanned side ive ever seen win a game - up there with that Essendon* game in the early 2000’s when Bradley Silvagni and Kouta were out, not quite as good because West Coast are really shit.

Great win, never saw that coming today.
Just goes to show what a difference some younger players can make, lots of enthusiasm.
Wow.

That would be hilarious given it would mean...
- the clown show we just stuffed snagging a W at the litter tray
- Essendon* winning at the Gabba... doing us a second favour after pipping the Dockers
- Clarkson's bitter bastardry towards Hawthorn exceeding his bitter bastardry towards Carlton

Youthful enthusiasm. Hope we keep them in next week.

Like what i say from Lord, and Binns

Loved Kemp forward. Should be the 3rd tall we were looking for.

Love the Moir goal. WOW.

Best game from Pitto and Hewitt for a while

Wasn't expecting that margin and I'm still not sure if it's due to the Eagles being so bad, or us turning the screws... maybe a little of both but a bloody enjoyable game.

Cripps... just build the statue now, no need to wait until he retires

WCE couldn't beat a team comprised of their Grandmothers.

spot on stef

best games i can recall from pitto and moo

best game ever for kemp, great mark at the end, glad voss took the risk and out him forward and trusted young, who also did well once he grew into the game

lord has a future

motlop is just poor

i feel for durds, he was doing well

Apparently close to lowest score ever against blues. Have not checked. Well done back six, that was the business at the back for the party at the front

I’m not going to go on and on about a couple of things, as I’ve been saying it all year, as have others, but ffs, Kemp should have been used forward earlier and Young is a back man who assist Weiters more than anyone. Our coaches just frustrate me. Done - that’s it.

Now, this is what happens when everyone is on the same page and:
1. Applies pressure everywhere - all over the ground.
2. Lowers the eyes and kick shorter to allow the overlap.
3. Take the flowering game on

As for our list …… it’s busting and no excuses should be ever raised with this group not being good enough.
Big shout out to the Hollands boys .. Ollie you’ll be a star pal, just keep going.
Small forwards … well we have some if used correctly!!!
Big well done to the debutants.

Cripps is the best Captain in the game!!

End of rant.
